It is a special edition of the magazine "Menelique", isbn written in the post is taken from the photo of the edition, although there aren't any other info online: https://www.menelique.com/editoriale-... It's basically a selection of articles on various topic not exclusively literature but culture in general. I feel like it could be added? what do you think?

The number shared is not an ISBN, as that starts with 978 or 979. It is a barcode number, but I don't know what kind. Good question. I don't know if it's literary either. Maybe ask it in this chat? It sort of started and some librarians are chatting and helping each other there: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
Or ask a question in this folder "Questions (from Librarians only)".

#11 Hi Olga, this one existed but it tells me it does not meet the guidelines: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... i updated the data and made it "public", will the message go away?

My advice when adding books (especially when the source is Amazon) is to add only the ISBN and save. If the book is in the database, you will see a link, if not, there will be a message - add the title, author, etc.

Only about #6 I have doubts, the book doesn't have an ISBN, i can't find the information on the post online (ex. pages, amazon says nothing) also the publisher is affiliated with the church the author is founder of, i don't know if that is important to consider

Official site, the book can be bought, so it's valid without ISBN. My only doubt is the format. There is a paperback in the request, but when I clicked to buy there is ebook.

Can you find out what the original edition was and maybe also the translator? That way it can be done as a new edition. =D

#22 edition exists already
#25 done
#26 I added the book but before closing it i want to ask: should i add all authors names? It's a collection of texts from a context, the edition on the website doesn't lists all names

Yes, all authors names should be listed.
Edited to add: I just looked at the long list of authors.
I would copy and paste them in the description section.
That is too many to add them all.


Sorry in my previous message i meant "contest"

Ah, in that case you can give that as feedback to the poster, and you can keep it as it is.

Laam, could you send link to the book you added to the request? When you write Done (in any language), it may not be clear to users where to look. And a new book cannot be found by name for several days, only by ISBN.
