Lisa'll be ticked if I delete that fourth one. ;) It is a unique book; it just lacks an ISBN because it was published in 1969.

Working on the rest.

Edit: Done!

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Whew! Thanks Rivka. Yes, this old person added it. I must have done that early on because usually I include all of the identifying information that's in the book and this time I didn't. (And have since learned that a 1969 printing of a 1967 edition should be listed as 1967 not 1969.)

So, I got the book out and added in/changed information for this edition.

Thanks Rivka for preserving it and sorry to confuse you Ashley and everybody.

Edit: Rivka I'll let you get the rest of that batch. Thanks!

I have some no-ISBN books too. Just added one earlier today. (Once I get a chance, I'll scan the cover.)

You don't have to be old for that. Just your books have to be. ;)


message 110: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments You don't have to be old for that. Just your books have to be. ;)

'tis true. I have some of my mother's books.

Thanks again so much for preserving that edition. And apologies again for not putting in enough information to make it clear that it was a wanted edition.


message 111: by Ashley (new)

Ashley (ashleym) | 145 comments Aha, I didn't catch the publication year, sorry about that!

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Rivka,

Thanks for uploading a better looking cover to the book we've been discussing:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/86...

I can scan but not edit them, and I've stopped trying to upload covers (other than my scanned ones) for any books. Whenever I have, when I try to upload a book from Amazon or elsewhere online, GR tells me the file is too big. So, thank you!


message 114: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Ashley, I got that one.

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
No problem, Lisa. I just took yours and cropped it. :) Feel free to email me scans to edit.


This Is Not The Michael You're Looking For | 949 comments Got the last batch

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments No problem, Lisa. I just took yours and cropped it. :) Feel free to email me scans to edit.

Thank you Rivka.

I know I entered some other similar problem ones into the GR database so if I come across them, I will. I can also look at my photo library and figure out which ones might be culprits; some are already the exact right size.

For a rainy day...


message 122: by Ashley (new)

Ashley (ashleym) | 145 comments Please also delete this one: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/26...
It will combine with the correct edition. Then please recombine that one with the rest of Inkdeath (in the combine list it is under "Tintentod" because a foreign edition is currently the most popular one). Thanks!


message 123: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Ashley, Got those last 2 short posts.

(it'll merge with most popular)

Delete
(it's the most popular edition...so I guess it'll merge to the 2nd most popular)

Delete
(separated to merge with the most likely edition...then recombine back with the other Magic Hour editions)

Thanks!


message 125: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Isis, Got those last three.


message 126: by jenjn79 (new)

jenjn79 | 564 comments Just one this time...

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Ashley, I go your last four.


message 130: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
And I got the fifth she edited into her post.


message 131: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments That's funny. Thanks Rivka.


message 132: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
She's done this before. A sneaky one, our Ashley. ;)

And I wondered why you had said 4! So I checked them.


message 133: by Lisa (last edited Jul 12, 2008 10:24PM) (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments And I got to see my typo in my original response message. Oh well.

Edit: and you can see Ashley's edit time in her post with 4, no 5, books.

It's usually helpful to batch them into a single post.

Yup. If you hadn't been quite so quick on the mark, you'd only have seen the edited post. ;)


JG (Introverted Reader) | 487 comments This doesn't really belong here, but I'm posting it anyway. :)

This book
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/36...

shows up in the Sue Grafton article on French Wikipedia as I is for Innocent, so I combined it that way. When I googled it to try to find a cover, everything else showed it as B is for Burglar. Do I go with majority rule and combine it with B is for Burglar instead?

This Is Not The Michael You're Looking For | 949 comments I think Wikipedia is correct on this one. The alternate title linking it with I can also be found on this website.



message 137: by Ashley (new)

Ashley (ashleym) | 145 comments Hehe sorry guys for the confusion, it's always my luck that I come across one more after I hit the post button :)


message 139: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Melody, I got the last one.

Delete

(both will delete to most popular edition)

Thanks!


message 141: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
Got both.


JG (Introverted Reader) | 487 comments I saw this book

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/51...

on the recent reviews. I changed the authors to include Zora Neale Hurston, but it seems to me that everyone reviewing it is reviewing the original book, not this edited and annotated edition. Do we leave it alone?


message 143: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
I'm going to delete it and resurrect it, making it clearer that it is NOT the book (and bumping the reviews to the actual book).


message 145: by rivka, Former Moderator (last edited Jul 13, 2008 10:50PM) (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
Done, with all 4 editions of Their Eyes.

Mockingbird's up next. Edit: Done.

Ashley (ashleym) | 145 comments http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/33...

Edit: Sneaking another one in :)

Please delete this one: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/93... it will merge with correct edition, then recombine with the rest of Poe Shadow - Edit 2: Actually, I'm trying to separate that incorrect edition out, but it won't stick (the correct edition is already separate from the rest)...can anyone else get it to work?




message 149: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
Got both.

The second one wouldn't separate because of the illegal ISBN duplication. I deleted the ISBN from the record, and then it behaved itself.


message 150: by Ashley (new)

Ashley (ashleym) | 145 comments Aha, thanks Rivka!
