I need to make a new series called Locksley. I linked book 2 above, and this is book 1: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

Hello, there isn't a a link for book 2 and I can't find it in your list of books.Also, books must have a storyline or universe or characters in common to be a series. "Universe" means the setting. Some of the characters could encounter each other, or, some of the characters are the same in each book. A shared theme is not a series by Goodreads definition. Can you please tell us how this series meets the definition of a series by Goodreads standards?
It looks like someone removed it again. I added this book a few days ago, and it was removed because it wasn't yet available on its own. It is available on its own now at this link: https://www.madelinewalz.com/post/loc...Part 1 is here: https://www.madelinewalz.com/post/loc...
As you can see, Part 2 now meets the Goodreads standards, and so should not have been removed again. You can see from the links that they are clearly related, as they have the same characters and a continuing storyline. If I provide you with the description and cover for Part 2, are you able to recreate the book page? Or is it possible to recover the page that was wrongfully deleted?
I don't know if it can be recovered, maybe a librarian with more experience can chime in.
I hope it can be. I'm worried that if I make the book page a third time, it'll be deleted again, even though it shouldn't be. I have posts in the book issues folder and superlibrarians folder asking about this.

Sorry about the duplicate threads, I'm getting tired of dealing with this. Not sure if the page was deleted or if it was NAB'd, but it's not on my author page anymore. Which link do you need, the Goodreads page or the link where the short story is available? As far as I can tell from my search history, this should be the link to the Goodreads book page, but it now gives an error message: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/list_...The short story is available to read here: https://www.madelinewalz.com/post/loc...

If you link the new edition after you add it, I can add a Note that should help it not get deleted.
Ok. So I need to create the book page again. I'll do that now, but I'm worried about it being deleted a third time, even though it shouldn't be since I fixed the original issue that got it removed the first time around. Once it's created, I'll share the link here and then a series needs to be created as I said in my original post above.
Here's the link to the new book page for Locksley: Part 2: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...This is part 1:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
And I forgot to add a cover for part 2, so can this be added as the cover: https://drive.google.com/file/d/19j57...
Will someone else be making the series and adding the cover? (Sorry if this comes off as pushy. I've been dealing with this for a week and you've taken a huge weight off my shoulders with this.)
Done https://www.goodreads.com/series/3508...The link you provided for the cover asks for permission to access, is the cover on your website the correct one?
Sorry, must have done something wrong with the link. If it's the image in the post for Locksley: Part 2, then yes that's the right one.
