[COMPLETE] Editions need to be merged

[Drace]

Goodreads has some issues regarding the limited hardcover edition of Touch the Night by Max Booth III. There are two hardcover editions listed, with one labeled as "limited signed/numbered edition" and one without that label. The signed limited edition of the hardcover is the only hardcover edition of the book that exists, and as such, these two pages need to be merged.

This might require a superlibrarian, so if it does, please let me know and I'll move this thread to their folder.

It does require a superlibrarian

Alright. Moved the thread to the proper folder.

Queued for merge

Thanks for merging them, but in the process, it looks like the hardcover has been separated from the Kindle and paperback editions. Could you please re-combine them? Link so you can: Touch the Night

There's also some issues regarding stuff like page count and publication date - should I post those corrections here while the thread is still active, or start a new thread for them?

Thanks for the clarification - didn't realize separating editions was part of the merging process. Much appreciated.

Corinne, that's on me. I attempted the merge but got a message that it had to be done by a superlibrarian.

Giving this thread a bump to check in on how the merge is proceeding. Another merge that I made a thread about just got finished today and I started it after this one, so I figured it would be a good idea to check in.

I have it on my calendar to check each day. As of this afternoon, it was still stuck.

Some librarians are having success by resubmitting the merge order. I did that this evening; I'll check it in the morning to see if it went through this time.

I just checked the book record, and the merge has not yet gone through.

According to Jaclyn, staff moderator, merges are beginning to go through in a more timely manner. I hope that resubmitting this record for merge yesterday will be effective this time.

Here's hoping it does. Thanks for all your help with this.

The merge went through so I recombined the edition.

Thank you so much. I think there's a bit more cleanup to be done on the book, but I'll probably make that thread in a day or two. Nothing else to worry about here. Marking the thread as complete.

Thanks, David! I'm glad to get this one off my calendar.

Also, thank you for removing the LibNote from that record. I appreciate your wrapping this one up. 🏆😍

Teamwork :)

:D You heard me whimpering (and wailing and gnashing my teeth) whilst I was curled up under my desk, didn't you?

Uh huh. Thought so. LOL!
