Marte (marteawqakuq) | 61 comments these Lettera a Meneceo sulla felicità,
Lettera sulla felicità, Letter to Menoeceus: Epicurus, Lettre a Ma(c)Na(c)CA(C)E, Lettre à Ménécée and this Lettre à Ménécée are all the same book and this Lettera sulla felicità is the right edition, but with the wrong name for the author. Instead of Epicurus it's Epicuro

also, this one Carta sobre a felicidade and this Carta sobre a felicidade are the same book, but the author name problem

sorry for the trouble guys

Lais | 187 comments I had some problems saving the changes on requests #734-737, I'm not sure what worked and what didn't. I'll have a look again later.

#738-741 done

Hello, Toffee,
merging two editions involves deleting the duplicate. Please post this request at the "delete a book" topic, because deleting should be done by superlibrarians.
I corrected the author name on the one that was wrong, so both these editions show on the correct author.

The same is valid for your request #744, concerning this book:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Thanks!

Can't combine these, one of them is a translation of The Little Prince, the other is a Graphic Novel adaptation by a different author.

Dan Malakin | 3 comments Please combine:

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

That can be done without losing reviews, right?
Thanks!

To other librarians: do you have issues combining editions of authors with way too many different books and editions? When I click "combine" is shows "processing your request" endlessly and I don't know how long it makes sense to wait...


message 839: by Lizzy (new)

Lizzy Mason (lizzymason) | 5 comments Hello! This book has changed titles and needs to be combined with the old listing:

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

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

Thank you!

Raine (gravecat) | 20 comments Please combine these, they are two editions of the exact same book:

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

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

Thank you :)

Hello Vanda! That involves deleting the duplicates, and that should be done by a superlibrarian. Could you please post this request in the "Delete this Book" topic? Thanks!

Hi Ajay,
you'll have to help me out with this one. The editions you linked have two or three different authors as the main author. In order to combine I'll have to correct the name of the author, if it's incorrect, or merge authors, if the authors are the same just named differently. And that also depends: if there are different pen names for the same author, I'll have to leave them as separate profiles. And I have a hard time figuring it all out because of the language. Can you let me know if the author is incorrect on any of those editions, or if it's different names for the same author?

Hi Marte,
I attributed the books to the correct Richard Adams and combined the editions that needed combining, but the request about the duplicate you'll need to post in the "Delete this book" topic, as it should be handled by a superlibrarian.
Here:
