Cassandra (cassanj) | 4919 comments Please merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... and recombine. Both have exact same cover, not sure why any ACE is involved.

Please post in the "This book is not mine" folder. You will need to re-copy and paste your link as links do not copy from post to post.

ISBN 13 was added to a non-corresponding ISBN 10, then removed, but the ISBN 10 was actually a typo.

Emily | 17467 comments #549 Also appears in the book Good Trouble: Stories. Should it be retained in this case?

No, but that can be used as a merge target, instead of simply deleting the story and losing all reviews.

message 522: by Lisa (new)

Lisa (seabelis) | 580 comments This should be merged with default. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

The ISBNs were originally on the current default edition, but both the ISBNs and cover were changed at some point. I've removed the invalid ISBN and reverted the cover change. You can see the original record with ISBNs here: https://web.archive.org/web/200711020...

Emily | 17467 comments Working through #565.


JG (Introverted Reader) | 487 comments I think this edition can be combined with Angel Thieves by the same author and deleted. Angel Thieves was just published this month by the publisher noted in the book description. However, the book description doesn't sound like Angel Thieves. Someone more familiar with Kathi Appelt than I am may want to weigh in.

Hi Jackie,
this paperback edition was auto-imported from Amazon.
As the other edition listed was a Kindle I combined them under one book listing.

message 541: by Camilla (new)

Camilla | 337 comments Not asking for a merge of a duplicate, but this one Lights Out is a one-click buy of two books. Although it hasn't been added or reviewed by anyone, I still get the message "Only super-librarians can delete books with so many reviews " when I try to delete it.


message 542: by Emily (last edited Mar 29, 2019 11:55AM) (new)

Emily | 17467 comments New Yorker complete; found a few with a book as a merge target and ran out of free articles haha. I also ran into quite a few others, so I used the Wayback Machine to verify if they were ever online separately. (hence the delay)

#559 Done. Please separate items for merging if not the default, especially when there are multiple editions in different languages that are not the same as the default. There was one on the list that I reverted the ASIN move. Please do not move ASINs or ISBNs to different editions.
Thanks for leaving librarian notes on all of these, as the different volume numbers can be confusing.

#560-563 done
#565 After looking at Publisher's Weekly, the announcement for this publication was over two years ago. I think they must have just changed the book in the meantime. Someone created this as a placeholder after that, because it was the same text from the publisher's announcement, so I just merged it.
#566 Done
#567 Coming back Merging both
#568-573 Working on - Emtiaj, please let me know if any of the titles/authors have the wrong spelling or transliteration or format because I am copying some of the info from Worldcat.

#574 working on done
#577 done

#580 Done
When it says "reviews" it means "shelvings."
It is fine to ask for merging a "non-book" in this thread. The way we delete these "one-click buys" is to combine it with the best merge target (either a real box set or the first book in the series), then go through the NAB instructions. You can find them at the bottom of this page, under the list of items that are valid books:

message 543: by Elvenn (new)

Elvenn | 5763 comments Hello! It seems there are three entries for the same edition:

This one needs to be merged: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

But the most popular entry is also the most incomplete: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

The most complete seems to be this one: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

The whole lot needs to be recombined after. Thanks!

Sara Williams | 23 comments Please delete this book! It is a duplicate! This one has ME as the only one giving it a review on it, ((before I realized it was fake) and the original book has 8 reviews. This one also has NO summary. The original has a summary and everything.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

Ah, I do see my mistake here though: It is the paperback version added later on when paperback became available. However...I would much rather have one combined copy, notating both paperback and ebook. Should this one be deleted or should I merge them together somehow??

New to this lol

Thank you so much for all your help!


message 548: by Emily (new)

Emily | 17467 comments #586 This is the paperback edition that imported automatically from Amazon. It just needed to be moved to your profile and combined with the Kindle edition. I have now done that. If you need help with anything else just start a new thread in this folder.


message 549: by Camilla (new)

Camilla | 337 comments Thank you for #580, Emily! I was just wondering why I got the error message, as the one-click buy had zero shelvings.
