I'm really pleased that GR have added this info, but the Hugo Award Nominee for Best Novel (1959) by Poul Anderson is listed as the Polish translation "Neprijateljske zvijezde" rather than "The Enemy Stars", and doesn't even list it in "Other Editions". I'd normally combine editions of the original and the translation, but I don't think this would solve the problem with the Hugos list, and I don't want to make things worse. What's the correct approach?

"The Enemy Stars" was there, it was just listed at the bottom of the 12th page, while the Polish translation was on the 13th page.I combined them and it's all good now. :)
Awards are shared by all editions that are combined (rather than per edition), so there's no harm done in combining them when they should be combined.
Thanks!edit: btw, do you know a menu/screen option to get to the awards page? - I've had to bookmark the web address because i couldn't find anywhere to "click"
Sffgeek, it's probably not easier to get to this way as opposed to just having the awards page bookmarked. But, if you click on the "Explore" link on the top of each GR page. (Not the dropdowns, the Explore link itself) On the right side, about halfway down, it says "Recent Award Winners". Below that is a link that says "More Awards"- click on it- that takes you to the Awards page.

You're welcome. If you have it bookmarked in Firefox, all you have to do is start typing "Awards" in the address bar and it will appear. If you don't have your setting to clear browsing history, and you use that feature a lot, the Awards page bookmark will pop up in the top slot eventually. Even if you have a bunch of bookmarks that start off with those letters.
