Re 359: Deletions are not instantaneous and sometimes take a while. Repeatedly attempting to delete the same item (or to delete multiple editions of a work if the first deletion has not yet gone through) will confuse the system and slow things down.

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #359 - Looks like it has completed.

Sylvie (sylview) | 189 comments Either the 10 digit ISBN: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
or the 13:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

should be deleted and then merged back in with the other Unbroken editions. I've edited pages & title to match each other and Worldcat so it doesn't matter which.

^Not published as a separate story. Only part of that anthology. Deletion?

366 Stories that are only published in an anthology should be merged into that anthology. Done

David H. (bochordonline) | 39 comments https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...

As far as I can tell, this "book" doesn't actually exist. The photo is of 2 separate books (Vol. 1-2 and Vols. 3-4). There's no ISBN. I can't find any evidence that this version was ever published as a single book. It *might* have been a Book Club edition, but again, I haven't found anything online that ever indicates it was.

Cam (camthereader) | 608 comments The book cover on this is the same as the combined edition, just that this one has a 'learning reading speed' under it. Could be the librarian's screen cap.

The book is also on B&N but I have instructed the author on how to add properly so hopefully no further issues. Thank you for your help on this #370

cherryredcutie | 1 comments Hello,

I stumbled upon a duplicate that needs to be deleted:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
ASIN: 0007226586

is the same book as

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
ISBN10: 1741800218 ISBN13: 9781741800210

I already combined them but can't delete the duplicate.

Thanks!

^ | 86 comments RE: "Stately Secrets: Behind-the-scenes stories from the Stately Homes of Britain."

Please delete https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (Earl of Bradford).

Other GR edition records for this book vary as to date of first publication; & thus need to be cleaned up.

My copy in hand states copyright 1994 by Richard, Earl of Bradford 1994; the edition I own is a 1996 ppbk.

The title was first published in Great Britain in 1994.

with my thanks and apologies,

^Sub

This is an alt cover ed., yet has the same cover as the ed. it's supposed to be the alternate for.


message 393: by Thomas (new)

Thomas Stroemquist (poorlonesomecowboy) | 14 comments Hi, trying to add the 1999 Penguin edition of Eating Chinese Food Naked: A Novel, but the ISBN (0140282831) is set for Shadow Play. This is also a Penguin 1999 edition, but ISBN should be 0140286837 according to worldcat. This edition is already in the database: Shadow Play.

A correction would be very appreciated!

The book above is a duplicate of:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

If possible please delete the author which is a duplicate too. Harlan Ellison already exists but someone has created this book under the name 'Harlan. Ellison'.
Thank you.

Michael Prescott | 10 comments Hi. The book "Pitch Black" is included in a list of books I wrote, but it was actually written by a different author with the same name. Can it be removed from my list?

Here's the author list: https://www.goodreads.com/author/list...

"Pitch Black," the incorrectly listed book, is third from the bottom.

Thanks!
