Thanks for the help!

Dear Super-Librarian,

I came across this issue while working on cover searches for books missing cover images. I found this one entry "New Novel by Jacqueline Wilson​"​ When I looked up the book by ISBN# on the publisher's website, it was for The Other Edie Trimmer ​ by Jacqueline Wilson, Rachael Dean (Illustrator)​. So I added the cover image & updated the information with any other details I could get from the website.

There were other editions listed so I went through them to see if I could update them as well . . . and found some of the ISBN#s or ASIN#s did not match the same title!​ Here is a list:
​#​B07QHYL8KX​ = New Novel = "We are the Beaker Girls" ​[​Kindle Edition​] by Jacqueline Wilson(Author), Nick Sharratt (Illustrator)​ ​https://www.amazon.com/Are-Beaker-Gir...​ ​​
#​B07H8WFNK3​ = New Novel = "Dancing the Charleston" [​Kindle Edition​] by Jacqueline Wilson​ ​(Author), Nick Sharratt (Illustrator)​ ​https://www.amazon.com/Dancing-Charle...
​#​B0BM3M8DKJ​ = ​New Novel ​[​Kindle Edition​]​​ by Jacqueline Wilson​ ​https://www.amazon.co.uk/New-Novel-Ja...
​#​9780241572429​ = New Novel​ [Audio CD] by Jacqueline Wilson​ https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/44663...
#​9780241567234​ = New Novel​ Unable to find a book with this ISBN#
​#​9780241567227​ = New Novel​ by Jacqueline Wilson​ ​https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/44663...
​#​9780241567173​ = ​New Novel = "Project Fairy" by Jacqueline Wilson, Rachael Dean (Illustrator)​ ​https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/44663...

Just​ for the sake of space, I did not list the ones that had the matching title of The Other Edie Trimmer​. So I am not sure what's going on here, but maybe you can sort it all out. I think maybe some of those titles were combined in error? Let me know if I can do anything to help with this.​

*Sorry for the long post, but I wanted to give you as much info as I could!

T​hanks!​

David Raz (davidraz) | 12797 comments Seems like a wrong combine. Correct all titles, replacing placeholder titles and covers, and split them apart based on title. You seem to be doing well, but feel free to leave a note if you need help with that.

Thanks! I'll do that, I just wanted to check with someone before I started uncombining and changing things!

That's fine, but this doesn't require a Superlibrarian.
