Could you add this to my inner demons series?

Liralen | 8224 comments Re #3/#9: 1.1 appears to be a deleted scene, which per the librarian manual (https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/...) shouldn't be included on GR. I'd appreciate it if another librarian could take a look!

#4/#9: Added a link to the story and created series: https://www.goodreads.com/series/3464...

None of the items only available as blog posts meet Goodreads criteria for inclusion, the deleted scene included.

Liralen | 8224 comments Thanks, Rivka. The librarian manual says that "short stories published online" and stories "Published online as a specified short story" should be included—would these then count as "bonus" short stories (not included)? (Sorry, I know this sounds very basic—but when in doubt I'd rather ask before NAB'ing or merging.)

Some authors publish short stories online in various ways -- a PDF that can be downloaded directly from their website would be one example. Uploading to Wattpad or a similar site would be another.

Blog posts do not count as published.

Liralen | 8224 comments Thank you for the clarification. Better to NAB or merge in these cases?

If there is a good merge target, that is preferable to NABing. If the only merge target(s) are loosely related, NABing is better. (Good v. loosely related is often a judgement call, of course.)

Liralen | 8224 comments Thank you—I've done what I could and referred the rest to the superlibrarians.

Liralen | 8224 comments I referred the blog posts in #10 to the superlibrarians and have removed the Antihéroes series page (and now the line on the book title).
