Authors (and publishers) do not have series editing capabilities on GR. The primary (first listed) author/editor, which for both these books would be you, does have some editing capabilities for the book pages themselves. For anything else, Goodreads librarians can make edits as needed (regardless of who created the book page, series page, etc.). Is there anything that is incorrect in these book pages?Short story collections aren't typically listed as series on Goodreads. What makes these books a series?
It's always a collection published for the annual SFF convention FantaSTikon and it always follows it's topics. How can we add a book to the series?
The third one is out and we'd like to link it to others."Priče, legende i laži" is the title (it's already on GR).
It actually sounds like this isn't a series by GR standards. From the Librarian Manual:Imprints and other unrelated collections of works (usually by multiple authors) are not series. They can be grouped with a Listopia list, or the collection/imprint information can be listed in the edition field, but they should not be grouped into a series, or listed on a book's title line. ...To be a series, books should have characters and/or universes in common.
I'd suggest creating a Listopia page for these works, as I believe the series page should be removed: https://www.goodreads.com/list

Thank you for your feedback. We'll make a list for this.

A person outside our organization and unconnected to it, has created Goodreads entries for the first two collections thus retaining editing rights for those books and the entire collection.
We, the editors, would like to have those editing rights for ourselves (we're OK with sharing them with the original entry creator). We would like to be able to edit all entries regarding FantaST series and all the books in the collection.
Thank you for your consideration!
