Javier (palchetti) | 30591 comments Webtoons are not valid for inclusion on Goodreads.
See https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/...

For the record, ISBNs are 10 or 13-digit identifiers usually found on the back cover or copyright page of a book. ASINs are for Kindle or Audible editions mostly.

I'm afraid I don't understand as many of the works under this author's name are webtoons. How is it that they are not valid for inclusion on goodreads and yet there are multiple on goodreads? None of the ones on goodreads are physical books. They are all webtoons.

Javier (palchetti) | 30591 comments Yes, there may be other webtoons on GR already, but that is because any user was once able to add anything without regulation. That is no longer the case.

Also, if a webtoon is published in some sort of compiled volume -that is, as a paperback, Kindle, etc., then those editions can be added to the database. Like the multiple paperback/Kindle/audiobook/etc. editions of Heartstopper, Solitaire, Silence Radio and other titles by this author.

Would it be possible to add the first day then? It was published. Also will the webtoons on GR be removed?

Then that one may be added. Please bear in mind that comic books must have an ISBN (or ASIN, for Kindle editions) to be eligible for inclusion (again, see link in message #2). Also, links to the book on the author page/publisher/other valid sources would be helpful.

Librarians mark those items as invalid when found (that means, an invalid entry is not removed but is no longer searchable and cannot be added to a shelf any longer, but all previous reviews/shelvings are kept). We are far behind schedule with requests though, so I don't think there's many librarians actively searching for those entries at the moment.
