Daniel (vankog) | 44 comments Please merge those:

with the one with the cover.

The other two got "unknown" through the transition with no possibility to regain the original data.

Thanks!

WHAT

These previously free stories have been contracted for release later this year and my publisher asked me to remove them from my blog and from here. Could you do this please? Thank you!


message 665: by Daniel (new)

Daniel (vankog) | 44 comments You do only refer to the ebook download, don't you?
If not there won't be any reasons to delete the whole editions-dataset.


message 666: by Paula (new)

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments Generally we would not delete any books that have been published / given out for people to read in the same way a library would not remove a book from a shelf.

Since these where free reads from a website (which I personally do not think belong on this site) I think rivka needs to weigh in on this one or you can send an email to GR Support explaining why you wish for them to be removed.

Missy Welsh (missywelsh) | 11 comments Thanks for the response, Paula. I've sent a message through the help form.

Regardless, we do have free reads cataloged on GR which also includes the controversial fan-fiction. Example: James Potter and the Hall of Elders' Crossing. I do not believe Missy's book pages should be deleted. They were once self-pub eBooks which means people do have electronic copies of it.

ETA: This situation is no different than the one on Magic Gifts. The author released it for free for a week and then discontinued it. Now, the book can only be found in a yet-to-be-released paperback.

Got 692, 693, 694.

Please don't remove data like ASINs from a book before deleting (or posting requesting deletion).


message 672: by Lobstergirl (new)

Lobstergirl I only removed it because it was one of those Amazon seller-added ASINs, rather than a Kindle ASIN. I thought a script had removed all of these, but apparently not.


message 673: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
Why, if it's about to get deleted anyway?


message 674: by Lobstergirl (new)

Lobstergirl Well, you have a point. I guess I just like using the delete button...

There's a power thrill to using the delete button... mwahaha.

It's a placeholder and incorrectly use an ISBN13 of another edition in its ISBN10 box."


ditto: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...

FYI, this is the true edition: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13... (<--- don't delete)

message 682: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Lieberman | 5 comments For some reason, the paperback German translation of Jean-Paul Sartre's Paris Under the Occupation (ISBN-13: 978-3499145933) is listed with me as translator in place of the e-book edition I ACTUALLY translated (ASIN: B0069W8KIW). I have tried to correct this problem by deleting my name as translator of the German edition, but I get an error message. I have also tried to list my translation separately, but someone keeps merging the two. Checking the librarian's log, I see that a deleted member first combined the two and two librarians have subsequently compounded the problem (Otis Chandler and Martin) even though I keep trying to bring the mistake to your attention.

It is Goodreads policy to combine all editions of a book.


message 684: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
And your name is NOT on the edition with the ISBN: http://www.goodreads.com/work/edition...


message 685: by [deleted user] (new)

But, Lisa is still listed as translator on the German Kindle edition. Is this incorrect, too, Lisa?


message 686: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Lieberman | 5 comments There is no German Kindle edition of Paris Under the Occupation. This is a mistake.

My English translation of Sartre's Paris Under the Occupation is the: ASIN- B0069W8KIW which comes up when you click on the link Rivka mentioned (And your name is NOT on the edition with the ISBN: http://www.goodreads.com/work/editions/2... )

The only German edition of Sartre's Paris Under the Occupation is a paperback edition: ISBN-13: 978-3499145933

Go to the Amazon page for the German translation:
http://www.amazon.com/Paris-Besatzung...

Compare it with the Amazon page for my English translation:
http://www.amazon.com/Paris-Under-the...

The duplicates from 714 have been merged. However, they need to be recombined with the original work.

message 696: by Maultasche (new)

Maultasche | 2 comments Hello,

please delete this one: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13... because of a spelling mistake in the original book (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...) I added it for wrong. I update the right one after deleting the wrong. Sry..


message 697: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
Those editions have different ISBNs.


message 698: by Maultasche (new)

Maultasche | 2 comments ah thanks. So I'll update the first one as an ebook version as it is.
Now I know better :)

Douglas | 28 comments Need a super-librarian to delete http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

This is the same edition as http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

My bad when I added the entry for the 1947 edition without realising that it already existed :-(
