Whitney | 122 comments How do I go about flagging something that is not a book? Such as: The Andy Griffith Show - The Complete Third Season

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments There are a few ways of doing this depending on whether it has an ISBN, whether it has adds/shelvings, and whether there is a book near-equivalent.

Doing this now so that you can see what I've done for this one - ISBN and shelving(s), no near-equivalent book available.

Summary:
ISBN, shelved, no equivalents - mark manually as NAB
ISBN, no shelvings, no equivalents - use the link on the right below the cover (only works if there are no shelvings). No point in doing this for ISBN-less works as it is designed to block reimports from the various feeds.
No ISBN, shelved, no equivalents - mark manually
No ISBN, unshelved - delete BUT make sure it's truly unshelved.
No ISBN, shelved, near equivalent - combine with target and list for supers (enables us to do the ISBN flagging at the same time as we do the merge).

NB These are only to be done for clear Not A Book records. If you're unsure, just post and we'll discuss it - we all need an extra pair of eyes on a record sometimes :)
