Strange - I saw two on my desktop, and one on my cellphone.

Presently there are two.

AND

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

The J.J. Janeway author page has 13 titles, as does Jacob Jones Janeway so there may be more books that can be combined.

Author's profiles merged, and books which need combining, were combined

ten books titled "The Pursuit of God" across two pages of search results.

The tenth has NIV in the name, by which I assume they changed the references from an extant translation of the bible when Tozer wrote, to one thats more readable in todays english (NIV). Not sure how that should be handled. Same content, just updated scripture references.

#813 didn't correct the collections and there is one edition with a different author (don't have time to look at it at the moment)

Near as I can tell, the fourth title should have the first half in parenthesis, and then at least 3, if not all 4 can be combined.

Thanks!

First two books are the same, both authors are the same and the profiles should be combined.

One of the author pages has 27 works, the other 35.

One of them is attributed to the wrong author. Instead of Jonathan Edwards, its Edwards Jonathan 1703-1758. That author profile has three books attributed to it, that should be moved, and combined as appropriate to the "Jonathan Edwards" author profile.

Re: 821: There are two different religious writers by that name, father & son. If you have any interest in sorting which books on the elder Jonathan Edwards should be moved to the younger Jonathan Edwards, we can move them.

I topped 15000 books added to my list here in Goodreads today. Which is almost the halfway point in my collection of 35000+ titles. I say plus, because that doesn't include all of the dead tree format books in my library. only a small pct. Most of my books (30-35k) are ebooks. with maybe 3-5k in paper.

I say all that to point out I probably won't make it back to figure out what belongs to whom on those profiles. I knew J.E. the elder wrote, but I wasn't aware his son was also a writer. A quick check showed three books attributed to the son. Two of them were simply his fathers works re-packaged.

Sandra | 31401 comments Working on combining but also merging those no info duplicates.


message 821: by Sandra (new)

Sandra | 31401 comments Extras in #1 in the queue to be merged by the supers.

The rest combined. And added the series.

Added the Japanese paperbacks for #6 & #7 & combined those with the Indonesian editions.

You'll notice in the series that the Indonesian edition is primary, simply because its had more adds by members.

A few that can be combined, and at least three different Keynes author pages. One with a date, and one with the letters "C B" following his name.

Thanks!

Shouldn't be merged, the first link is the whole novel and the second one is for part 2 only

All three are the same book, all three are written by the same author, all three are attributed to different author pages.

Bruce M. Metzger
Bruce M Metzger (no period) AND
Bruce Metzer (no g or middle initial).

All three author pages should be combined as well. Not sure if there are other duplicate books. But I assume there will be.

The title of the second one needs adjusted as well. There are little changes from year to year, so specifying the 1999 edition shouldn't be done in the title, and it shouldn't be a unique work. Both study guides are functionally the same.

Some of these can be combined as well as an author situation. Should Be Work Projects Administration. But one is just Work Projects.

One title (this one: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...) needs to have the title made plural. Should be interviews, not interview. Its one of the combine-able ones.


message 844: by Ken (new)

Ken (jsschrstrcks) | 780 comments I feel like I've posted this before, but I see a few that at first blush can be combined.

I am not sure about the ones with alternate translations of scripture, but I assume they can all be combined. Same content, just made available in your favorite bible translation.
