Dusty Grein | 11 comments So should I just modify the description to show it as out of print, so folks don't try and find it to read? I just don't want people to become interested and have it not be out there ...


Elizabeth (Alaska) no details, please merge with default

thanks!

Yes, that is ok as long as you observe these guidelines:

Dusty Grein | 11 comments Can you merge the listing without a cover image into the one with one? Thanks.

I tried to do this myself, but it would only allow me to merge titles, not editions of the same title ...

Kindle and ebook are considered different editions on Goodreads, so they both need to stay; but if you can confirm that the kindle edition had the same cover as the ebook we can add that cover to the kindle edition.

Providing, there are less than 10 editions, I agree. I wouldn't recommend such a task for Frankenstein!

Yes, the covers are identical. Thank you.

Jane | 18 comments Dear Super-Librarians,
please delete this edition:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... because it is wrong, and the correct german hardcover edition is already added:

Thank you!

This is the most popular edition but it doesn't have an indicated format so I'm not sure where to merge this one

rachel, x (typedtruths) | 1368 comments This has half a ISBN 13: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

which matches (including pub. date and publisher) with this: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

please recombine w/

Elizabeth (Alaska) The only detail for this is the pub date of 2008. I cannot find any editions in any format published in 2008, either here or at Amazon or at WorldCat. Suggest merging with default (but just leaving it works, too).

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

Thanks - however you decide!


Elizabeth (Alaska) had ISBN-13, which was a duplicate of the edition with the ISBN-10; moved the 13 to the 10-edition as it had more adds. Now need to merge

lethe | 16359 comments #636 They are already combined. One is a hardcover, the other a Kindle, plus they have different covers, so no merging.

Lynn Rush (lynnrush) | 10 comments Hello. For this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/edit/2... The Julie Cross linked to the book is NOT the author. Julie contacted me (I have librarian status) to fix, but I am not sure how to fix since it's the only author listed. Is there a way to unlink Julie from that book? It looks like it's an accident. Thank you so much!


message 629: by Abcdarian (new)

Abcdarian | 26579 comments #639: There were 2 Julie Cross profiles already, so I made a third one by inserting 2 extra spaces in the author name, for a total of 3. Explained here: https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/2... (By the way, this is the wrong thread; please start a new one next time.)

Megan (megan-no-h) | 15 comments Merged this with the volume the one review indicated. Now this "edition" needs deleting, since it isn't a real edition:

Carol She's So Novel꧁꧂  | 2291 comments This kindle edition of Emma has a publication date of 2050 & the ASIN no doesn't come up on Google. Can this be deleted or merged?

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...


Actually Emma is full of incomplete entries.

Since they do have a Goodreads account, can they please post in this thread to confirm that the book has not been and never will be published?

100% true. However, since it also has a pub date of 2050, I can tell it is one of a batch that was imported in error a while back. I've gone ahead and deleted that one.

Thanks I just mentioned about the invalid ASIN to explain why I hadn't edited the date myself. :)
