message 303: by Alex (new)

Alex | 2736 comments Hello! I've come across these duplicates:
Main, with ASIN, Kindle Edition - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Duplicate, no ASIN, Kindle Edition - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
They have different publication dates, but this Amazon page places it on 17 July 2013 (that matches neither edition).

Krazykiwi | 1767 comments https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... (dup, one has ASIN in the ISBN field.)

A question: In the above situation, the most popular version has the ASIN in the ISBN, while the less popular one is the more correct listing.

I generally prefer to give you guys the less popular edition to delete, since that matters to normal librarians. Is that true for you guys too? (i.e., should I in this specific situation, move the ASIN on the bad version to the ASIN field, and remove it from the dupe, so you have less fiddling around to do, or does it not matter?)

Less fiddling is preferable, in general.


message 314: by Krazykiwi (new)

Krazykiwi | 1767 comments Thanks for the confirmation Rivka, in future I'll do the fiddling first then :)

I think I may have been unclear. I meant, less fiddling with the book record overall. So please don't start moving the ASIN around before requesting a deletion. It means supers have to do more work (to figure out what you did and why), not less.

Krazykiwi | 1767 comments Oh oops. Understood.

message 319: by Philip (new)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #319 - There was a 2008 edition of that book, with the same page count as listed on the one without the ISBN, not sure what cover it should have had, but they are definitely 2 different editions.

Grace (justonce) | 66 comments I tried to make a topic about some book entries that are advertising/spam for property sales and not books, but the topic was frozen with the message that it should be reported to the staff. I have no idea how to go about doing that. The non-books are still there, so could someone tell me how to report this to the staff?

Andy Luke | 3 comments I have a bad and a good listing for an ebook and I'd like both multiple listings deleted as the author has now come forward and created one.

The listings for deletion:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

For verification purposes, the official listing that should remain differs, including a full description and ISBN which the others don't:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Thanks!

L'existence Et le Silence (stillesleben) | 4 comments hello,

could you please delete this book. The version with the correct isbn ist also online. It only can delete by superuser, so i can't delete it.

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

Thank you very much :)

Siina | 90 comments Delete this https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2..., since there is already a record for the manga and that has the complete info with ISBN. This is merely a double.
