Book republished under a new title (need help on the quotes)

[Yasmina]

Hi Goodreads friends!

I need help to delete a book from the database and edit and/or remove all the quotes associated to it.

I had to remove my book from amazon and republish it under a new title and I have created the Goodreads pages for the new paperback and eBook editions today so I’d like to know how to delete or modify the quotes that I’ve already posted with the former title. The story is the same so the quotes are still valid, the only thing that I need to change is the title.

Former version (the one I want to delete from Goodreads)
New version (the one I want to associate the already existing quotes with)

If someone can help, thanks a lot!

Good evening 

We do not remove old editions but thank you for letting us know that they are the same book. I have combined them.

I don't know if it is possible to change the quote attribution; someone else will have to answer that one.

Hi Scott,

Thank you very much for responding. So the former title will still be on Goodreads even though it technically doesn’t exist anymore (since the book is no longer available under this title on amazon)? The reason why I ask is because the problem is not that a new version of the story has been published, it’s really that the book doesn't exist under this title anymore.

Thanks a lot.

Many, many books throughout history are no longer available, but we still keep a record for them, as people have read them, or may yet read them at some future date.

After the cache updates, quotes should be linked to all editions of the work.

I understand, thank you very much for your help and for having combined them all :)

Hi Rivka, thank you for replying, I was going to enter new quotes (the same ones) using the new title, so I don't need to do that anymore?

Rivka, sorry I hadn't seen the last part of your sentence after "quotes should be linked", okay understood, thank you very much :)
