Τελχίνας (aaraigathor) | 347 comments Thanks a lot Olga!! However, you didn't correct 47.15-47.16... I can still see wrong names by the links I gave you. Someone also corrected 47.18. I did strikethrough to those were corrected. There are lots of them left behind... Lets see some more:

1. In "First Woman President of India Pratibha Patil" authors Ramesh Chandra & Neela Gokhale should be separated: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...
2. It needs a proper title and author Harpal Singh: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
3. Are they different authors?:

2. Ell J Walker to Ell J. Walker: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
3. There is a problem with series "Baphomet" ( https://www.goodreads.com/series/108410 ). The 2nd book is not over there and the 2nd book with the "Cosmic Crusader" ( https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... ), which gathers the material of the two books, is connected with the 2nd book... Someone has to separate them and register 2nd book in "Bathomet" series.
4. Those two author's pseudonyms should be connected together, even with links/hyperlinks:

a) Olivier Sprigel: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Rick Berry (rickberry) | 3 comments Hi. I have a relatively new author profile. The Kindle edition of my first book is on my profile.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

However the new paperback edition is not on my profile
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
It's assigned to a different author called Rick Berry.

Please can you help? Thanks!

c) "Σώματα που Άλλαξαν τη Θωριά τους: Διαδρομές στις "Μεταμορφώσεις" του Οβιδίου" !): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

You should also correct the title with the one I give you.

Proper publisher: "Gutenberg"

2. Author Βιργίλιος is missing from "Αινειάδα": https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
3. Author Λουκρήτιος is missing from "Περί Φύσεως": https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
4. Proper title "Νεκρά γράμματα;: Οι Κλασικές Σπουδές στον 21ο Αιώνα": https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

In Hellenic language symbol " ; " is equivalent of " ? ", not like a comma, so the colon still needed to separate title from subtitle.

5. Proper title "Παπούτσια με Λουράκι": https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

"Νέα Συγκεντρωτική Έκδοση" is not a subtitle to separate him with colon, it just gives information about this new edition, that's why I used parenthesis outside of title/subtitle.

15. Proper title "Φάσμα Κάλβου Ολυμπιακές Ωδές για τους Αγώνες των Ελλήνων και την Ελευθερία": https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Τελχίνας (aaraigathor) | 347 comments I've found only one edition in English language of "The Old Axolotl" and someone proposed that it had to be erased ( https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... )? Why? And if for some reason you should, why there isn't at least a 2nd edition in English language? All the others are in Polish: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio... Can someone undone that "delete request" or add another edition in English language or I am obliged to choose a Polish one? I had that in my to-read list and couldn't find it in "Show all 5 editions" but I managed to find the previous edition going from "Edit my activity"... No one can even find it in search engine from English title anymore...

Τελχίνας (aaraigathor) | 347 comments 1. The "The Ltl Mandarin Schoool Team" is not an author and should be deleted: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
2. You should correct titles, correct some data and replace "unknown author" from those two...:

a) "Gunsmoke - Complete 480 Shows - Old Time Radio (OTR) Western / Crime (2 x mp3 DVDs)": https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
b) "Gunsmoke - Complete 480 Shows - Old Time Radio (OTR) Western": https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Those are from radio show "Gunsmoke" ('55-'61): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gunsmoke where we have director Norman Macdonnell & writer John Meston.

3. Norman Macdonnell led me in "Gunsmoke": https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

where you have to split authors "John Meston (creators) William Conrad (subject); Gabor Rona (photographer); Norman Macdonnell": https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

4. Title that needs to be corrected and authors to split in "Joueur Du Wolverhampton Wanderers FC: Jay Bothroyd, Billy Wright, Robbie Keane, Seyi Olofinjana, Ronald Zubar, Ian Feuer, Lee Naylor, Andy Keogh, Alan Ball, Andy Gray, Jelle Van Damme, Gabor Gyepes, Sami Al-Jaber, Ricki Herbert": https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

I've already requested deletions of "Source Wikipedia" along with many others in #23 but no one bothered...: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... You can start with this one by replacing it and also "Livres Groupe" (that also has to be deleted: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...) with two proper authors of those written in title. Publishing companies are not authors and articles are definitely not books...

That's because they are considered valid books, and these are the correct 'authors' for these books,

Τελχίνας (aaraigathor) | 347 comments I read those and I still don't understand how a publishing company became author. Because we don't have the real authors? So what? We can use "Unknown" or "Various", even in cases they use nicknames and not proper names. Because it suits some readers having those books in lists? So lets make an author "Marvel Comics" or "DC Comics", or "National Geographic", because they are some of the biggest companies out there and some of us could gather lots of printed material, because "Goodreads" staff does not decide eventually to create publishing companies or languages as part of the database.

These are not practical solutions rather than sloppiness... And it's definitely wrong to use a field reffering to persons for such purpose. It seems, however, that some are taking advantage of this practice and making it even bigger. In a few years it would be more difficult correcting those cases. How could librarians agreed to such practice? Regardless of the books issue, you should have knowledge of how a database works and figure out what could be improved in the future. Not to accept a proposal by anyone because it's "convenient" at the time, absent further computer programming.

Τελχίνας (aaraigathor) | 347 comments But lets see some more, until someone decides to get involved with those requests above, even from the previous page...:

1. Those books of Rodrigo Bravo Isla seems to belong in a series called "Saga del Orden Divino", besides we don't have the numbering. At least their titles should be vice versa, with the title of the series be the first one: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
2. Takis Chatzianagnostou should be renamed to Τάκης Χατζηαναγνώστου and those three books by their proper Hellenic title and also their publishers: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
3. In "Αυτοί που Φέρανε την Καταχνιά" a Μενέλαος Λουντέμης should be removed: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

7. Proper title "Handbook of Multibiometrics: International Series on Biometrics": https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Proper authors: Arun A. Ross, Karthik Nandakumar & Anil K. Jain

8. "Subhadra Sen Gupta Tapas Guha Satyajit Ray" should be split to Subhadra Sen Gupta, Tapas Guha & Satyajit Ray: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
9. "Subhadra Sen Gupta And Translated By Tapas Guha" should be split to Subhadra Sen Gupta & Tapas Guha: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
10. Those are not authors too and should be renamed as Unknown or Various, unless there are authors already written in their entries or on book covers:

a) "Betty N. Ainsworth Publishing": https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
b) "Flowerpot Press": https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

h) "Miles Kelly Publishing": https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
i) "Icon Group International": https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

11. Title "Jonah and the Very Big Fish (5 Minute Bible Stories) by Dhanya M (2013) Board book" needs correction: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Τελχίνας (aaraigathor) | 347 comments 1. How is this happening? I see the author Dhanya M. in book "The Good Samaritan" ( https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... ) but in her profile that book does not appear...: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

That book does not connected as edition with the other two! Additionally, there is no notice of its imminent deletion. So how is this possible?

2. "Jonah and the Very Big Fish" needs title correction: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Also, the proper author is Dhanya M.

3. A series called "5 Minutes Bible Stories" should be created for those (or some of those) books: https://www.goodreads.com/search?utf8...

The combining, of course, between the same books should also be made.
