Running Away


message 552: by jenjn79 (new)

jenjn79 | 564 comments Two for deletion. They're blank editions so they just need to be deleted, nothing else.

Carolyn (seeford) | 573 comments Please delete this one:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/74...

It's a manual entry with no isbn or much other info. I already merged it into the real editions, but it is telling me I can't delete it because it has too many reviews. It has 6 reviews.

Thanks in advance!

You too. :)

JG (Introverted Reader) | 487 comments Double check me on this one. I combined this edition only with the one it matches. They have the same cover, publisher, and publication date, so I think this one can go. After being deleted, the remaining one needs to be combined with the other editions of Angela's Ashes. Thanks!

This edition just needs to be deleted.

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments JG and Paula, Got them.


message 562: by Cait (new)

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments Paula, I got the first two books, but your third link is to a person!


message 563: by Paula (new)

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments oops -

its this book
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/61...

Thanks


message 564: by Cait (new)

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments *grin* That I can delete!


JG (Introverted Reader) | 487 comments http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/63...

It's telling me that only a super-librarian can delete it for some reason. There only 6 or 7 reviews.


message 566: by Cait (new)

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments JG, I combined it with the most popular paperback edition and deleted it.

(I think the superlibrarian-required number may have been bumped down to 5 recently.)


JG (Introverted Reader) | 487 comments That would explain it.

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
I noticed that too. I'm not sure why.


message 569: by Paula (new)

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments I was wondering about that - it seems very low


message 570: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments I hadn't picked up on the change even though I couldn't figure out why superlibrarians were sometimes needed. The number seems low to me too. However, with all the mistakes, including some incorrect deleting, I guess I understand, although superlibrarians make mistakes too. I think maybe it's now set too low. I don't know how a correct number should be determined though.

Cynthia Armistead Newman (technomom) | 159 comments Would a super librarian please delete http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/46... ?

It's a manually added duplicate of http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/63... .

Thanks!


message 573: by jenjn79 (new)

jenjn79 | 564 comments This book needs a superlibrarian to delete it.

I think it was an early edition for when the ISBN for the book was unknown.

Rivka added it, apparently, so she'll probably know best what to do with it ;)

Thanks!


message 574: by jenjn79 (new)

jenjn79 | 564 comments This book also needs a superlibrarian to delete it.

There was an issue with the author (missing suffix) so I fixed up the author issue and combined. It appears to go with the most popular, so it will already merge correctly.

Thanks :)

Got both.

!!!

I think it may have been by someone's request. I know I haven't read it. Nor is it on my to-read list.

Weird.




message 576: by jenjn79 (new)

jenjn79 | 564 comments Alls well that ends well ;)

Thanks, Rivka!

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Paula, I got them. Thanks for the work. Dickens, in particular, is always a chore because there's so many editions of each of his books.


message 579: by Paula (new)

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments Lisa - he certainly is !

I have another for a super to delete please:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/30...


message 580: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Paula, I got your last one.


message 581: by Paula (new)

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments Needs a super user to delete please:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/20...


message 582: by jenjn79 (new)

jenjn79 | 564 comments Please delete this book

It had a last name first author listed, and also has an incorrectly spelled title. Merging to most popular is fine.


message 583: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments I got the last 2.


message 585: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments I got them Paula.


JG (Introverted Reader) | 487 comments Silent Boy needs to be deleted and then re-combined with Murphy's Boy

One Child needs to be deleted and re-combined with Sheila: Luka Hati Seorang Gadis Kecil. Be careful with this one, there are two different Sheila books.


message 587: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
I got the first, but someone else was faster on the second. ;)


message 588: by Cait (new)

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments I got Old Child -- it looks like someone else already handled Silent Boy.


message 590: by jenjn79 (new)

jenjn79 | 564 comments Delete this book:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/61...

It will merge with a specific edition, then recombine with the others.

And delete this one:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/42...

It's a blank edition, so merge with most popular.


message 591: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
Got those three.


message 592: by jenjn79 (new)

jenjn79 | 564 comments Thanks, Rivka!


message 594: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
Done.


message 595: by jenjn79 (new)

jenjn79 | 564 comments Can someone try deleting this book.

Whenever I try, I get an error message...then when I reopen the book page there's a message at the top saying it has been deleted and X reviews merged...only the edition didn't delete.


message 596: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
I get the same thing.


message 597: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (seeford) | 573 comments I see it has been separated out and then combined with one that has a lot of reviews now.

Needs a SL to delete since it has 10 reviews attached, so I can't help more with this one...good luck!


message 598: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
Yeah, still no go.

I emailed MICHAEL.


message 599: by jenjn79 (last edited Apr 08, 2009 08:10AM) (new)

jenjn79 | 564 comments I separated and combined it with the most likely edition so it will merge with the book the user probably wanted (didn't notice the publisher listing the first time around, which didn't match the most popular)

Thanks for checking Rivka! Hopefully they'll get it fixed soon. Meanwhile...back to spring cleaning on the JD Robb books for me...


message 600: by Cait (new)

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments I'm also getting an error deleting a superuser-required book (this one). Can someone else try?
