As best I can tell, this "book" is only promoting a games website, and even though there's only 1 review, it tells me it needs a super-librarian for a book with so many reviews.

The best way to handle things like that is to flag them as spam (I flagged this one) and leave them for GR to handle so that the spammer can be blocked. If we just delete them, the spammer will create more.


message 873: by Tiffany (new)

Tiffany | 125 comments Oh, duh. I even had half that thought ("But won't they just create it again?"). *smacks head*

Thanks :) *bashfully hides in corner*

message 890: by Fumijo (new)

Fumijo | 80 comments This is not one book, but a bundle of three books being sold as one book, so it needs to be deleted:

If it is sold that way, how is it different than any collection sold together? We keep those.

Often Indonesian manga gets bundled by the publisher, but this publisher doesn't seem to have bundled this one. I was inclined to merge it into the first book in the series this morning, but the combine server was down....

guys & girls, please refrain from deleting manga from INDONESIA. i can't believe this is happening again!

we have went through this exact disussion in another thread, and i thought i proved to you that here in indonesia, selling manga as book set(or rather tankoubon set) is not uncommon.

nihon joe,
you are correct that the series is consist of 3 books, but you have to know that it was sold as A BUNDLE when i bought that series. it was not different from harry potter book sets, roald dahl book sets, naruto tankoubon booksets, or any other book set!
do you really know how it works here in indonesia? not just an assumption, but really know? if you don't know *hi*, stop commenting on manga published in my country. you have to come to indonesia and check for yourself if you don't believe it.

Cait,
FYI, i bought beautiful sunshine as a bundle of three tankoubons, from a bookshop (GRAMEDIA) that's from the same group with the publisher (ELEX MEDIA KOMPUTNIDO). i wonder where you get that information about "but this publisher doesn't seem to have bundled this one"? from the internet? lots of information about books from indonesia is not available YET in the internet.

rivka,
I appreciate your 1st remark to nihonjoe. but I am surprised that you agree to delete it (or merge, whatever the term is) only after cait's comment, without even asking someone from indonesia, who actually shelved the book.

and now the entry is gone. nothing can be done to retrieve it.
i can easily create another one, but it will be wasting my time if it will get deleted again and again.

I thought being a super gives you more responsibility to check whether the request to delete a book is truly valid or not, and not just delete any book requested for deletion.

I went to the publisher's website, where the three volumes of the series were listed individually and there was no bundled listing, and I went to the website of the bookseller with the watermark on the cover image (which was the cover image of book 2 in the series), where the volumes of the series were listed individually. In all of the other cases I've seen of sets of manga, the publisher has indicated that the series is available together and the record on GR has also indicated this clearly. I apologize for deleting the bundle, but it did very much look like a false series record and not a set.
