Got it.

Actually, the middle one is a real book. But thanks for pointing out the other two.

mlady_rebecca | 591 comments Please delete this book. It was a duplicate of the eBook edition without the ISBN. Originally it was listed under the wrong author's name, but I fixed that.

The proper eBook edition is the most popular edition, so reviews will be transferred to the most appropriate edition.

Thanks!

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Brenda, I deleted the 6 spam items. Wow! How did you come across such a diverse collection of so not books?!

Goodreads, I'll leave the actual spammers for you.

Will check those last 3...

ETA: Deleted all the spam items off the last 3.


Goodreads,

Would you take care of the long list of spammers please?


Thanks Brenda! Good finds. What people will think to put on this site boggles my mind!

Actually, if you leave the items, it's easier for me to find the spammers.

Sorry about that, Rivka. I was hoping they were in that long list. I'll apologize and be more careful next time, and I suspect there will be a next time.

Probably not for this crop. They seem to be in the same bunch Brenda found earlier (and I found some others by following their trails), none of whom have done anything in over a year.

No worries.

Interesting. I was curious.

LOL! That's especially funny, since the spammers are all in India.

Got the spammers. (FYI, any book with a blank source (which means the user who created it has been deleted) is fine to delete.)

Those last two are definitely not books. I got them too.

Dori (adorible) | 196 comments Please delete this placeholder.

So that's what that means? I always wondered, I thought the info disappeared into the ether...

Plch | 81 comments a super is needed to delete this empty version of 'solar', the new book by Ian McEwan, probably a place holder:

I separated that out so that it would merge into an edition with a matching cover before I deleted it.


message 73: by Cait (new)

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments Dori wrote: "Please delete this placeholder."

Merged into the other hardcover edition (it needed to be separated from the audio edition).

vicki_girl | 2764 comments Please delete the following:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/69...

Somone tried to put the ISBN-13 in the ISBN-10 slot. I matched it with its duplicate.

It will need to be recombined with Evil Genius.


message 77: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Vicki, Done.


message 78: by vicki_girl (new)

vicki_girl | 2764 comments Thank you! Got another one. This one is essentially blank, so no duplicate...

message 79: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Vicki, Got it but please provide link to book page, not edit page. I was willing to do it because of your good track record but from the edit page there's no way to tell if the edition has been combined with the other editions, etc. info can be "harder" to see.


message 80: by vicki_girl (new)

vicki_girl | 2764 comments Doh! I knew that already! I need to pay better attention to my copying/pasting...:S

Thanks Lisa.


message 81: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Sylwester, Why should this be deleted? There's no other edition. It looks like a placeholder.


message 82: by Cait (new)

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments Sylwester wrote: "Please delete this one: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/79..."

I think it needs to be combined with this one:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/78...
...but it looks like the combine/separate server is on the fritz again. Nothing can be done here until that edition can be separated out.

vicki_girl | 2764 comments I was able to seperate it and merge it with its twin. Since all the data appeared identical, I deleted it and recombined.

So I guess it's just me, then. :)

You're right, I forgot to do that--Thanks :)

It looks like someone already got this -- I'm only seeing one of that book.


message 89: by Plch (new)

Plch | 81 comments a super is needed to delete this http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/33...
since the book does not exist: 'a man asleep' has been published in English together with 'the things' and never by itself (as far as I was able to find out on the web).

I only see one edition. Put the links to both of them so they can be combined.

No, it's meant to be the Kindle edition. Editing.


message 94: by Dori (new)

Dori (adorible) | 196 comments I think this placeholder can be deleted now.

the_cat | 388 comments K this one has a truncated isbn that should be 0393321177, already second edition on the list.
