Please correct page count.
re 100, i walked back several bad changes, and now the book record is entirely different. I've confirmed the book record, as it is now, with worldcat.Edwina, i assume your copy of the book has no ISBN?
re 101, reverted a bad ISBN change and uncovered, more or less, your ISBN
can you upload a cover shot of #100, just to be triple sure that I create a record for you that has all the right info together?
This is a paperback, cover uploaded.SBN: 373-70628-6
Published February 1976

still trying to figure out 102, just fyi.
re 102, i'm convinced there should actually be an ACE with your ISBN. I've started it here, but again, if you wouldn't mind, could you take a pic of your own and upload it? there's too much confusion on various sites for me to be 100% confident which cover pic to use. Thanks!https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
#100 is that the ISBN? because it may be invalid, just ,aking sure before changes are made!
100 is done! please don't change it!

I could use some clarification. Setting the issue of reprints aside, if a book here on Goodreads was published with an SBN (but not an ISBN), should we be converting them to ISBNs? Even though the actual book was not published with one?
Mod
Does this mean we also have to check the Pre-ISBN books we've already made for signs of a pre-standardised ISBN as described in the post above?
Mod
But if you want to, have fun.
Ok, then I think I'll do so from now on. In any case, most readers wouldn't be aware of the information necessary to make the conversion and would look for an ISBN-less version. If I ever do end up doing this conversion I'll definitely include a note that indicates this has happened.
This book (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... ISBN: 9788072154418) has actually 295 pages. You can check it here: https://www.worldcat.org/title/maus-p... Can you, please, change it?Thanks in advance.
#123 <----- (how cool is that LOOL) Changed :)
Please add cover and summary.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

From back cover:
How could she cause him pain?
Long ago Samantha had given Eliot an acceptance that one day they would marry.
Now, because of an encounter with the handsome, compelling Nico Martinelli, Samantha glimpsed a side to herself she'd never seen. Yet to discard the memories and promises of a lifetime was absolutely terrifying.
Every instinct of self-preservation warned her to shun the mysterious Nico -- yet Samantha knew in her heart that was impossible.
Hi, could you please correct the page count and cover for the following book:ISBN: 978-0-7553-4785-8
Page Count: 337
Edition: Paperback
Publisher: headline
And the cover shown for this paperback is wrong - headline has the same cover as the hardcover edition (cream, big red X and a skeleton in a suit, as seen on the other editions).
Thanks in advance.
125-131 donere: #130
Is this the correct cover?
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Johannes-Caba...
Or is the cover on it the right one?

All this one needs is a cover.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Edited to add: Please note that this is Harlequin Presents #602
Edited again as I've just noticed a lot of words running together in the summary ... please fix.
The unknown binding on this one is paperback.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
Edited to add: Harlequin Presents #547 should be noted.
ISBN: 037382503X276 pages
If worldcat disagrees with page count it is because of an "exciting preview" from page 277 - 300, which GR does not count as pages of the book.

It's the second one, the goodreads link. Thanks for the quick response!
143, 144 donefor 145, i went ahead and changed the page count, even though your edition doesn't have an ISBN. worldcat has an earlier printing of that edition with that isbn at 320, too.
Re #147So should you create a pre-ISBN edition of my post #145, for those of us who have the non-ISBN book ?
#145/148 1976 is some time after ISBN was first-established, we may yet be able to form one: could you check the spine, cover, back cover, for a string of alphanumeric characters?
