187 done188 Not combined, one is volume 2 of the work.
#186 some were already done, I've combined some others. It is not only the number of posts. When someone deletes a post, the numbering of the posts after that deleted post will all change.
#189-194 done
#195 combined The/A Buddhist Catechism. The others seem to be 2-in-1 or 3-in-1 books.
#196 done. Both listings had different editions, both with and without the subtitle.
#197 done
#198 done (one edition with both author names in one author field combined; the others are 2-in-1 book, or an adaptation, and should not be combined)
#199 done
#200 done (except selections and volume 1)
#201 not done, the second link from the search is a study guide, not the book itself
#202 done
#203 not done. Most editions have 500 pages, some have a volume number, other don't. I can't tell if the content is the same.
#204 done, and separated editions that were only 1 volume
#205 done
Thanks for all the hard work!for #203 the first one matches my ebook picture. But it is a multi-volume set. Its a Logos.com edition so they don't have ISBN that I'm aware of, nor often do they have page counts so I can't offer more insight other than they look similar.
Logos also often truncates titles - all I have for the volume title is "The works of the Reverend George Whitefield, vol 1, or 2 or whatever there are 6 in total.
Hello, Please Combine

I thought I was adding it through "add new edition" but it came up as a separate book. And upon hitting "Combine" I saw no tick-boxes as the Combine Help page said.
Anyway, Thank you.
#211 done. Only librarians can combine. If you were a librarian it would say Goodreads Librarian on your profile under your picture. It say # Librarian because everyone can add books to the database.#212 - #214 done
#217 was already done#218-221 done
Sorry Arenda, got my numbers wrong :(
https://www.goodreads.com/search?sear...The author should be A. T. Pierson, or Arthur T or Arthur Tappan - but probably only one name, not a combination of names and dates.
My title lists the name as "Arthur T. Pierson". Plus please combine :)
https://www.goodreads.com/search?sear...My title has "H. P. V. Nunn" as the author. Also there are two that probably should be combined.
#228-229 Done#230 these seem to be different works. One is book #1, one is books #1-7, one is books #1-3, one is a dramatization and one is a picture book adaptation.
#231 Done except the one which is unrelated
#232-235 Done
https://www.goodreads.com/search?sear...Two volume 1s and two volume 2s.
Also dates mixed in with the authors name. What real book or software does that? its coming up a fair amount.
237 done238 Done. Those reprints of public domain books have often strange forms of the author names and some other places use dates to separate authors with the same name.
Working on #228, incl disambiguation.
#240, #242 Done
https://www.goodreads.com/search?sear...three books.
Authors name is ringing a bell as that of a pirate? must be two different people. But it would make me chuckle if a pirate actually wrote about the bible.
https://www.goodreads.com/search?sear...Two to be combined, and check out the authors names... something funny going on - first book has the first name of the first author of the second book, and the first books author also has the last name of the second author on the second book...
#244-246 Done
