rachel, x (typedtruths) | 1368 comments #235 skipped?


message 252: by Saeed (new)

Saeed (bivatan) | 8 comments why did you separate them?
i think you didn't understand what i exactly mean.
one book is added three time.
you know i am working in library and i know there is just one edition of this book that translated to Persian ( my language ) .

this cover is incorrect and this is for English edition ( please omit it ) : https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

please keep one of them and merge into the other edition (the place that it was before) :

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

i would complete its information.
thank you

The Persian editions needed to be separated because the users that shelved the duplicate edition should be transferred to the correct Persian edition. When the merge is done, it should be recombined with the other editions. When I don't separate them, users that had shelved a Persian edition will have the default English edition on their shelves.

Please see https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/3...

ETA: the two duplicates are merged now

Not skipped according to #240, although merging is very slow.

Working title for book & apparently was named such in a couple of early press releases. I have the ARC now and it has the other title.


message 265: by Bea (new)

Bea I tried to find cover and other details for this book - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1.... However, when I looked it up on Amazon and tried the various edition ISBNs listed, I found that they were all already present on GR. Please delete this incomplete edition.


message 266: by Sandra (new)

Sandra | 31402 comments Someone added a book with an incorrect isbn (correct edition isbn 10 ends in an X) I think they didn't like the X. LOL.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

then please recombine with

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

#260 one queued, will do the other when the first has gone through
#261 queued
#262 not done, Kindle and ebook are different formats
#263 queued
#264 done

#265 done
Please don't move an isbn before requesting a merge. Just say one edition has the isbn10, the other the isbn13. It makes it more difficult to determine if it is a valid merge.

#266-267 done
#268 done, after combining it with the other editions
#269-270 done

Diana Ault (ladyofnarnia) | 1 comments Hi! A super-librarian is needed to delete this entry:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
The author recently signed with a publishing house and needs (only) this entry removed as it's for the self-published version. Thanks!


message 281: by rachel, x (new)

rachel, x (typedtruths) | 1368 comments Not sure if this merge is just being slow or whether it got skipped: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

(1: Your links aren't going to the right place.
(2: Your post is not in the right place either; the books will not be deleted, but moved to another profile. It doesn't need a superlibrarian. Please post again by starting a new topic thread; thanks.

#282 data removal reverted. GR does not delete books that are no longer available.
Please see https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/2... and https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/3...
If there are legal issues, the author has to contact GR Support.

#283 done; separated the audiobook to be merged into the audiobook edition and recombined
#284-286 done

publication year should be 1992;
the collected number of pages: 714: http://www.worldcat.org/title/and-the...

message 294: by Ida (new)

Ida (bonefolder) | 2 comments Merge these two (delete the first one, add ISBN10 to second): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

The second record has incorrect ISBN10. Should be the same as in record one. Couldn't fix it myself.
