Any ideas about this one? Nature isn't a valid merge target, but that's the only thing it was published in. I left it alone for now.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Lightspeed, April 2015, complete!Please delete:

Queued to here (those with more than one to go will be queued again once the first is done).
Dropping this here to remind myself to go back and check. All "issues" are from the same source.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

Uncanny Magazine Issue 17: July/August 2017

Lightspeed Magazine, June 2014: Women Destroy Science Fiction! Special Issue - The Unfathomable Sisterhood of Ick
Also problematic and need checking (same source again):
Turntables of the Night
#772 Queued. I'm going to be off work for a week soon, so if you want to load me up with tons, feel free! (If not, will be working on those in #771 :) )
I'll try to work on another short fiction award so I can pick up some new ones, going through this year's WFA so there may be a few incoming today :D
Lightspeed, January 2018 Complete!Please delete: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
and https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
Queued to here (except the second one in #778 that is waiting for #1 to go through).
If someone wants to work on a project, a number of the short stories/novellas/novelettes in this series were published only in magazines or collections. I've picked up a few during another project, but if someone else wants to work on these, go to town!https://www.goodreads.com/series/1096...
Re #780, I've picked up a few, but got sidetracked gathering up stories out of various Heinlein and Niven anthologies...
The magazines are not against current policy, but shorts should be merged into the relevant edition when found.

They appear to lack either an ISBN or an ASIN, so why would they not be against policy?
Done - I have done that one before, when I was doing the Sturgeon nominees.
working through here.Just as an FYI, ISFDB is a good resource for merge targets (at least for speculative fiction.) #1 in 790 actually has a foreign language merge target: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
Everything done - I don't know the answer to #792 - maybe Rivka knows the answer to this one?
now, I'm cleaning up the rest of Caroline Yoachim's titles, heh. Now that I'm done, she only has one title - the short story collection. :O

Question: Ezine, or something more like TOR?https://cuentosparaalgernon.wordpress...
Sometimes, these are the only published translations for these titles in Spanish (they're done with permission, and have won awards in this format.) They are, however, published without ISBNs.
They're also often collected into an annual on a yearly basis.
I'm leaning towards not deleting them when I run across them, but I'd like a second opinion.

Backing into this. I'm not sure which magazines Emy was referencing and the post numbering has gotten messed up. But policy says
Goodreads considers the following to be valid book records:
...
periodicals without ISBNs but substantially similar to books (e.g., perfectbound literary magazines), although they should be typed as "periodical" in the work: media type field
...

Corinne, I wasn't responding to your new posts in this thread. I didn't actually look at your links. (But now I will, just because!)
I used to get notifications for this thread and then I changed because I wasn't doing the type of work contained in this thread. I just happened to see it was active again. The post I responded to was from 2019 but had never been answered.
