I combined the edition that had a typo in your last name with the other two existing editions.
If there are now two identical editions, then one will need to be merged with it's partner, which is a rather different procedure from combining.
I haven't merged before, so I'm not going to proceed on that project until I know better that that is what is needed in this case.
Based on the 3 editions that I see, one has such minimal data that I can't tell which (if either) it should be merged with.
Let us know if want anything further done, and someone will try to help!

First two results appear to be the same title. The second two books appear to be the same, but different from the first pair.

Could someone please combine the editions?


message 528: by Ken (new)

Ken (jsschrstrcks) | 780 comments I think they are going to need links to the other editions.

#537 done

Ken (jsschrstrcks) | 780 comments Thanks Arenda - RE 535 the newly combined volume 4 no longer indicates what volume it is, nor does it contain the series information like the others in the series do.

This is the title that needs updated:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

I am asking that the book at the end of the last link look more like the other three books in the series:
https://www.goodreads.com/author/list...

Secondly the first two results at the following link need combined.

It appears that a few of these can be combined.

Scholarly Journals are an appropriate thing for goodreads right?

I have an electronic edition of "The Presbyterian Review, Vol 3 no 9-12 (actually I probably have all of the Presbyterian reviews, grouped oddly). Will I need to enter them all by hand?

Ken (jsschrstrcks) | 780 comments Thanks Sandra!

If someone could take a look at these as well. looks like two of both vol 1 and vol 2, the difference being one is volume 1, and another is volume one.

The other two results may be able to be combined as well. But I'm not 100% on whether the content is the same or not. Perhaps you guys would know better.
