Koenraad (koenraadkelemen) | 7016 comments re 52: the librarian log for this book shows that it was first titled "Isbn 9789173533638". Since this is a valid ISBN for an 2010 edition, for sale in several (swedish) bookstores, I adjusted the ISBN to 9789173533638 and changed the publishing date to 2010.

Antara Mann | 21 comments Hello, I have a problem - two duplicated editions f my book The Wishing Coin: https://www.goodreads.com/search?utf8...
It's available only in kindle format, and this is the ASIN: B00RNF4D0I. The first one is incorrect but has reviews and the ASIN is labeled as ISBN. Can you fix it,i/e labeled the ASIN under ASIN and the second edition to be deleted?
Please delete this edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Robert Peterson (robertjpeterson) | 16 comments Hello, Goodreads librarians!

Author here with the hope of combining two editions of my book. The story is: I originally self-pubbed, but then got a book deal.

If possible, I'd love to transfer over the ratings and reviews from the old edition to the new one, but if that's not possible, then I'd just like to see the old version deleted.

Links:

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

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

HUGE thanks for everyone's time and trouble!

Best,

Bob

Paula, thank you so, so much for combining those two editions!

Would it be possible to get the cover art from the new edition shown on the book's page? I tried to replace the art myself, but it says that only Goodreads librarians are allowed to change cover art.

Again, the new edition was listed here:

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

I'm also happy to send you the new cover art, if that would help.

Again, thank you so, so much for your time and trouble!

Best,

Bob

You have just re combined editions that where separated on purpose in order to merge the correct editions together creating more work.

Please leave the requests in this thread to super librarians

I can't find any record anywhere of this being a thing. It's not listed in ISFDB, no google hits, no worldcat hits, there is no publication info on the listing, and it's not in the pretty complete bibliography at http://www.jgballard.ca/ or in any of the contents listings for any of his several "The complete collection" variants.

vicki_girl | 2764 comments For 65, the story is available here:
http://www.evergreenreview.com/102/fi...
However, Evergreen Review appears to be a (now defunct) online magazine (?). Not sure if this should be deleted.

Re 69, seems to be a mix-up with this one:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Merged.

70 Merged.

Working on 71. Done


message 72: by Krazykiwi (new)
Jan 20, 2015 10:33AM

Krazykiwi | 1767 comments Re #65: Perhaps Rivka can clarify the rules here.

The story has been published many times, but never as a standalone. The first publication predates the Evergreen Review version by 5 years, the first edition of The Atrocity Exhibition (the Ballard Collection I combined it with) predates the Evergreen Review by 3 years. Since single issues of the Evergreen Review themselves do not qualify for GR, the story can't be merged there, and I assumed based on recent discussion about shorts and excerpts, that this doesn't qualify as independent standalone publication anyway.

Stories published as part of online magazines are not books -- unless they were also published as independent works.

Merge pending for 65.
