Cassandra (cassanj) | 4919 comments Please merge with default https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2.... Pub date for stray is 2006, but there are no editions with that pub date that ever existed.

Same book, one with the ISBN, the other one with the ISBN13.

I find it frustrating not to be able to do it by myself.
Which ordeals should I attend in order to become a Superlibrarian? :)

one cover says "Number zero" and the other "No. 1", though, so they aren't duplicates. Maybe the details of #0 have to be edited

Giacomo Boccardo (jhackjhack) | 22 comments one cover says "Number zero" and the other "No. 1", though, so..."

According to http://www.jenusdinazareth.com/e-arri... they are not the same one, but the "Number zero" was self-published (in a few hundred copies) and reprinted by Magic Press as "No. 1".

I don't know if we can find more details about the first one.

What do you think we should do? In the meantime I changed the title to clearly tell them apart.

#986 super librarians get chosen by staff as they can really make (a even bigger) "harm" to the database so you won't just become one because you're frustrated about not being able to merge books - won't be that easy :)

Moloch | 3975 comments re 989/990/991

they are not the same book, so they both can stay


message 965: by ☕ Lachgas ♿ (new)

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments that seems to be a truncated isbn https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
as far as I can see the next edition would be the correct one so I didn't separate

It's only 7 pages long, but it does exist. And it is not the same as the other book.

Evidently one was created as placeholder edition, according to comment by one of the authors

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

This is the correct book:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

The one without the cover is a duplicate. There is only one edition of this book.

Thanks.


message 978: by ☕ Lachgas ♿ (new)

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments that seems to be just a duplicate of the paperback https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... (and then to be recombined with https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...)

Goodreads policy is to keep all published covers on the site, as users want to shelve the cover of the copy they have.
Instead, we add an alternate-cover edition.
See http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...
and http://www.goodreads.com/help/show/85....

As the author, you have the ability to change which edition of the book is the default, which will come up in searches by title and show on your author profile.
Here are the instructions: How to set the default edition.

- For Smoke in Moonlight: merged one duplicate ebook edition, created an alternate cover edition for the Kindle edition.
https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

- For Blood in Fire: all editions are valid, different format and/or cover: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

- For Lightning in Sea: merged the duplicate Kindle edition, one valid edition remaining: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

#1011 not done, the one without the cover is a valid edition (it has an isbn), added the cover from Amazon to that edition, which is different from the cover on the other edition.
#1012 merged the duplicate board book and recombined
