The usual technique that we use won't work for single-name authors. Unfortunately, there is no way that I know of to remove them from your profile. :(


Jenny, got them.

Lobstergirl I'm guessing whatever this thing is, it can be deleted by a super.

zap!


message 64: by Beth (new)

Beth | 2 comments I'm a brand new Librarian and of course, immediately ran into trouble. This edition http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/76... has no details/ISBN/etc but happens to be the most "popular" edition; this edition http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/88... has all the details. But since it has been shelved 6 times I cannot delete it (otherwise I would just put all the details in the other edition and delete the less popular one.) Can a super help? Thanks!

message 66: by Tiffany (new)

Tiffany | 125 comments This either needs to be deleted, or flagged as spam, and I'm not sure of which:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/78...

If it needs to be deleted, it needs a super-librarian.

Authors don't get deleted; they get merged. Any of the "this author" threads would work -- or a new thread is fine too.

I got this one.

Both have been combined with the real editions.

Got 74-77.

What's wrong with the ones in 78? Just because they don't have ISBNs doesn't make them incorrect.


message 79: by Lobstergirl (new)

Lobstergirl They're duplicates of other editions in that language.


message 80: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
Please separate each one out with its correct edition.


message 81: by Samuel (new)

Samuel Ch. (samuecchi) | 7 comments This book is duplicated, please delete it.

This is the good version of this edition.

Those two editions have different ISBNs.

Edit: Looks like the cover was wrong, though. Corrected.


message 83: by Sandra (new)

Sandra | 31414 comments The novella Magic Mourns originally appeared in the anthology Must Love Hellhounds http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/62...

however, it has since been released as kindle & ebook
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...

So which should this no info, edition be attached to?
Regardless it will need a super :)

NAB'd


message 92: by Beth (new)

Beth (bethjustbeth) | 1568 comments This one isn't a book...it appears to be a diary entry, with the author "Chris," and added by "Tim," about "Tonsil Stones Vacation"...no ratings, but says a super-librarian must delete it...so leaving it for one of you guys with a cape.

message 93: by Tiffany (new)

Tiffany | 125 comments (hehe... I was going to mark it as spam :) )

Okay, maybe we should have coordinated our efforts before we attacked "Chris."


message 94: by vicki_girl (new)

vicki_girl | 2764 comments Please delete this short story. I have already combined it with one of the anthologies in which it appears.

poof!


message 96: by Melody (last edited May 25, 2011 01:00PM) (new)

Melody (runningtune) | 13300 comments I got it. And it seems "Chris" is a legitimate author. But the Tonsil Stone story was put there by another goodread's user. I don't think it's spam though.


message 97: by Tiffany (new)

Tiffany | 125 comments Yes, "Chris" is a legitimate single-name author. However, that Tonsil thingy isn't one of his, and seemed like spam.


message 98: by Melody (new)

Melody (runningtune) | 13300 comments I think it was the user's attempt to put his writing on Goodreads. People do that with quotes sometime too. They (the quotes or the bogus books) should be deleted - but not marked as spam - which would mean the user should be deleted.


message 99: by Tiffany (new)

Tiffany | 125 comments Ah, okay. Thanks for the clarification.

And I forgot to say thank you for deleting the book.

It was spam, Melody. There were links to a scammy site buried in that "writing".
