.. (saraabdullah) | 57 comments Hi
I was checking this list and found that it had a duplicate so I checked the Edit list option and thought maybe I can merge votes or something, but this option wasn't provided instead I clicked "Check duplicates" I thought I would be able to choose the book to keep and the other to remove but I saw a message "Two duplicates found and removed"!! and now they're gone with thier votes. I can't add books to the list unless I'm "voting" for it. I don't know if there is an undo for this? What should I do :(

Emily | 17605 comments Voting is the same as adding the book to the list. There's no undo for the finding duplicate function. It should have left at least one edition of a book that it found as a duplicate. If you can't find the book at all, you'll need to add it back to the list or post on the Goodreads Help page, as librarians don't have insight into site functionality.
