Hi,listing the books in this group for the data to be added/corrected is the way to go, as this is exactly what this group is for.
I added missing data from Amazon and WorldCat to the three books you listed. They didn't have the descriptions though.
hi olivia,that was faaast - thank you :)
you'll find the descriptions here:

https://www.amazon.de/Gegenwind-im-Pa...

If you are interested, you can also apply to become a GR Librarian, so you can make the edits yourself.
I've done a lot of edits on German books, and it seems there are not that many librarians working on German books.

aaah - ok - good idea :) but they say you have to first add 50 books to goodreads and i have added just 4. and until 46 more that i read aren't already in their database maybe it will take years :)))
hmmm ...
Tom,I know this is confusing because this is exactly what I thought as well.
The 50 added books are the books on your profile, not a new books added to the database.

This book has the wrong author listed. It should be Wendy Coakley-Thompson. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
#10 done, including two other editions

i have some books in my shelf with missing/wrong covers, missing page numbers, missing description etc.
i can't edit them but what should i do - setting up an alternative edition without isbn is no clean solution. posting every single book here in a forum and asking an admin is too time consuming.
here some samples:

does one of you have an idea?
thanx in advance
