rivka wrote: "No."



Now, that just seems rather silly, considering that super-librarians aren't (I hope) the sort to abuse the rights and privileges they've been granted. There often are legitimate reasons that messages should be sent and received, and it seems only a matter of (un)common sense to allow the super-L's that ability (though certainly not the entire herd of us average, run-of-the-mill, non-supers).

*shrug* It's a question of how the system is set up, not of potential abuse. As an admin, I still can't send messages via the GR system to anyone who has blocked messages.

Yup... Been there, done that... Not that I miss my days as a computer programmer that much - quite happy nowadays to let others deal with the nuts'n'bolts of that sort of thing... :P

It seems weird that users can be able to block messages from admins. How else are they supposed to be contacted if there's a problem?

Got them. For future reference, it's helpful if you combine all the editions.


message 762: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments Got 781 & 782. 780, That won't show up on Worldcat because it's an ebook. I think they are split because the author writes under two names, and as Ednah she is a GR author.

I'd merge them but it looks like an alias.

No that book should stay, it is a valid ISBN. I would change the primary author to Ednah, then put the secondary as E.B. (kind of like how it is now but reversed).

ambyr | 33 comments Please delete this one: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/63...

It's a user-created edition of The Winds of Winter that someone submitted a couple years ago, back when all there was was a title. As of last week the book has been assigned an ISBN, and there's an Amazon import over at http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12... with all the publisher data. I figure the old placeholder should be deleted so the reviews shift to the listing that has actual data.

You did it perfectly :)

Brittany (weareattached) | 43 comments Am I correct in assuming that this along with it's combined edition can be deleted? http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/77...


message 768: by vicki_girl (last edited Aug 03, 2011 11:54AM) (new)

vicki_girl | 2764 comments Since it has an ISBN it should be NAB'ed instead...working on it now.

ETA: Done.


message 769: by ambyr (new)

ambyr | 33 comments This imageless ASIN-only boxed set (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...), which I believe from the pub date is a duplicate of this happily ISBNed boxed set (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/98...) should probably be deleted.

boom!


message 771: by ambyr (last edited Aug 03, 2011 03:37PM) (new)

ambyr | 33 comments As per my earlier post. . .I think these three non-existent editions of The Hedge Knight should maybe be merged?

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/94... (was a separate entry that grouped the whole series into one record; as per Rivka, I've combined it in with the first book)
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11... (user-created without cover, ISBN, pub date, or any other info)

Heya,

For some reason, a second copy of my book showed up on Goodreads today. Weird. Anyway- here's the linky. http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...

Also, it's here: Lust After Death (Please make sure this is the version with no ratings, etc. before deleting) THANKS!!

Daisy

Neither needs to be deleted (nor should be); one is the Kindle edition, and one the general ebook edition.

Someone already combined them, I see.

Addison Moore | 37 comments This book isn't mine! Please help me delete it from my list of books. Thank you! http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...


message 785: by vicki_girl (new)

vicki_girl | 2764 comments I disambiguated the author. The book should not be on your author page now. (It may take a little bit of time for the cache to catch up though)


message 787: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
Actually, it appears to be available as an ebook. Edited to reflect that.

message 793: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments Just saw this one. I can delete but I'd like a second opinion first. Maybe there's something I don't know, but I doubt it.

Oy. Deleted.
