Incorrect spelling in book title

i fixed the title. as for combining, i can't find an un-combined edition. are you sure you didn't just accidentally shelve it twice? it is possible to shelve two editions of the same work.
The resume information for the two versions of the cover differ, as well as the now corrected title mistake. This implies that they are different books.One is here:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
and the other here
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9...
I'm not clear about combining but surely if people are leaving reviews about the same book all reviews should be available to view no matter what version?
If you want to be super accurate the word Perigord should have an accent as in the first version. I was just lazy!
Thank you

The editions are definitely combined. And I made sure to fix the accent as well. Just because the book descriptions differ doesn't mean anything. Each book edition can have its own description, or if one isn't specified, it will use whatever the default description is. This enables different language editions to have a description in the appropriate language, for example.
I checked your shelves, and you have definitely added both editions. The easiest way to check if you've shelved duplicates is to go to 'my books', then on the left side of the screen, scroll down to 'find duplicates' (under 'tools').
Before I replied to you I deleted the 2nd copy from my list, so I am surprised that it still showed up. Perhaps you looked before I deleted it. I have just found the 'find duplicates', which is very useful - thank you! There are several which I shall deal with.Thank you for sorting out the title problem

My author page and 2 of my books are miss spelled. They say Nese Ellyons instead of Nese Ellyson. I have one book in the right place but the other two were added to the one with the typo.
Surely your comment would be better added as a new thread Nese where it is more likely to be seen and acted on. You will need to give urls to link to the mistakes. I'm sure the librarians will be able to sort things out for you.
#6 - Cannot seem to find the books you are talking about, I can only find ones with the right name.BTW, you can claim your Author profile by following the link below.

Is there any way that we can mark a discussion as resolved and shut it down to further comments that are off the original topic. This is available in discussion threads on other sites such as Wordpress and would be very useful.Thank you.

This version has the title spelled incorrectly (Prigord rather than Perigord) which means it does not show in searches. This version (with this cover) is the one I have read but the information for the books probably needs combining too. I ended up with both versions on my shelf!
Thank you
