Michelle (michellemegurine) | 60 comments Hello! I had a doubt and I decided to ask.
I was adding the short stories of the series named before, and I found a note in The Infernal Devices Series that say:

"DO NOT ADD COLLECTIONS AND THE LIKE. THANK YOU".

And I don't know if this refers too at the short stories.

Have I to make a new series for extras or leave it as is?

•TID: https://www.goodreads.com/series/5414...

I'm a argentinian member, so sorry for the inconvenience and the bad english and thanks for your help.

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments There are rules about what is a short story on GR.

Deleted scenes and alternate point of view chapters should not be added to GR.

Librarian manual states

Non-book Items

The following is a list of items that should not be added to the database:
Shorts:
***Short stories only published in an anthology or magazine
***Deleted scenes
***Extras only published at the back of a specific book edition
***Incomplete and in progress works (this is different from "forthcoming" works, which are considered completed but as yet unpublished)

Michelle (michellemegurine) | 60 comments Thanks! But I don´t see the problem for the alternates points of view. So so sorry, but you can explain me?
Sorry for your time!

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments Alternate POV are not complete stories, GR allows them only when they have been published via a publisher i.e. Amazon on Kindle with ASIN

See the msg in this thread for further information, but you will see that they are deleted when found

Michelle (michellemegurine) | 60 comments So the PoVs aren't short stories, even if the author published them in his website. I got it. I will delete all the stories that do not qualify or make a request if Goodreads forbid me =)

Thank you so so much for your time!
