Moloch | 3975 comments 378 & 380 were skipped, while 379 only needed combining (I did it)

Mike Brooks (mikebrooks) | 8 comments Hi! Please don't delete this book, but please delete me as the author of it! The author is a different Mike Brooks (whom I don't know): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

I have moved the book to another Mike Brooks, but please if you have similar requests in the future (no deleting but removing books from your profile) start a new thread.

P.S. Mike, is this also not yours? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Arenda | 26448 comments Numbering from previous posts has been changed due to deleted posts.
#373 was done

#374 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...
Combined both editions.

#376 done.
Why did you separate them? Please read the manual: https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/3...
Reviews/ratings and shelvings have to be transferred to the correct edition, which is only possible when both editions are combined.

#378 done

#379 Those are both valid editions (a Kindle and a paperback). Someone has combined them. No delete/merge needed.

#380 done
#381 was already done
#382 was already replied, probably done

Arenda | 26448 comments #384 done
#386 done
#387 was already done
#388 done
#389 not done, covers look very different in color
#390 done

#391 working on separating both kindle editions as they were already recombined Not done yet, as this book is in a giveaway.

#392 please remember to separate both editions when the duplicate needs to be merged in an edition that is not the default (duplicate is Kindle, default is ebook), or at the very least link to both editions. Duplicate Kindle edition merged and recombined.

#393-395 done

The difference is only due the bad quality of the picture. You can check on the publisher's site (http://relogiodagua.pt/produto/a-cart...).

Shannon (theholyterror) | 87 comments https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... - duplicate with no ISBN

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments duplicate https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... can be merged into default as it's without any information

Geoff Gander | 18 comments Hi,

The following book is listed as one of mine, but I am not the author. Would it be possible to have it removed?

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

Thanks!

Doug Marshall | 3 comments I have a book that is attributed to me that should be deleted from my list:

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

What do I need to do to get the book deleted?


message 418: by Doug (new)

Doug Marshall | 3 comments These two comments by Moloch and Monika do not answer my question. How do I delete a book that is attributed to me?


message 419: by ☕ Lachgas ♿ (new)

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments #429 #430 that's the wrong thread for your request as mentioned in the first post - this thread is only(!) for deletion of real duplicates - not for just moving a book to another profile. (that can be done by any librarian)
open a new thread for such requests.


message 420: by Emy (new)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments #429 & #430

Please do not post book move requests in this thread. For help on moving books from your profile, please start a NEW thread in the Book Issues folder and a librarian will help you.

This thread is for books which need to be completely removed from the entire database.

rachel, x (typedtruths) | 1368 comments #422 In regards to the giveaway edit, do I re-request the deletion/merge after the giveaway or will it be done automatically?

David H. (bochordonline) | 39 comments Please merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (short story not published on its own) with its magazine issue: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (needs super-librarian)

Cassandra (cassanj) | 4919 comments Please merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... and recombine. Edition to be merged has ISBN10 for edition to be merged into; edition to keep has the correct publication date.

Erik Schubach (erikschubach) | 211 comments Can someone please delete https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... ?

It was simply a Christmas promotional bundle I did with various books from two different series in 2013 and isn't a real thing.

It was sold as a set, with its own unique ASIN. It stays, even if it is no longer available for sale. Please see http://www.goodreads.com/help/show/22... and http://www.goodreads.com/help/show/32...

Cassandra (cassanj) | 4919 comments This edition https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3..., is listed as HC (imported), but the publisher page notes the ISBN as MOBIPOCKET format (http://www.chicagoreviewpress.com/sei...), which is Kindle, correct? It doesn't have any shelvings right now, but I separated with the Kindle edition to merge into just in case.


message 449: by Emy (new)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments Mobipcket is a generic ebook too. Sometimes.

Ok, thanks, I just thought it looked silly sitting on the series page, but if that is the rule.
