Sara | 54 comments I wonder if someone could help me i've noticed that there are several versions of the book Jane Eyre by Paula Rego (edited in Portugal by Cavalo de Ferro and in England by Enitharmon)and the ones that i find so far have several mistakes.

I have the book, and am trying to correct but every time i correct one it seems that another one pops up with the information last updated by Barnes and Noble.

I'm going crazy with this!

Can someone help me or give me some pointers?

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments Which one are you trying to edit?

This one?

What is wrong with it?

All editions look appropriate i.e. do not need deleting or merging - they are combined

Sara | 54 comments All three of them have problems:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/22...
Wrong format and very very wrong description and no language

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/22...
This one was added by me on friday (or saturday) but the cover disappeared as well as the information regarding the second publisher.

http://www.goodreads.com/book/edit/42...
Wrong number of pages and wrong format, no cover.

All of them appear as last updated 33 minutes ago.

I don't understand what is going on particularly with the one that I added i'm dead sure that i had added cover + description + isbn + ibn 13 + translator i even provided the link regarding this book provided by wook.pt.

The one from Barnes & Noble .... where in the world did they get that description?

Paula can you give me some pointer? Or some help.
I've checked and all isbn are correct.

When i said merging i was thinking more in the lines of putting the correct information in all of them like copy from one info that is correct and paste on the other that is wrong.

I'm sorry if i'm not being clear =(

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments I m going to do this bit by bit so there may be a number of posts:

"The one from Barnes & Noble .... where in the world did they get that description?"

Probably bad Barnes and Noble data from someone there - I have found another version - can you check that


Edit: None of the logs show you uploading an cover, if you still have it - try again

Sara | 54 comments This one I have corrected, and this time I think everything is ok.

This one (I think it was added by you I hope you don't mind me editing it) corrected language added cover and provided site
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/42...

Paula Help!
Aren't these two exactly the same book (Added by Paula the other added by Barnes and Noble)?
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/edit/42...

Is it me or these two have the same ISBN?
What should I do?


message 6: by Paula (new)

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments They have different ISBN's that are numerically correct so both should stay - one was probably sourced form Amazon - hence why it now says sourced by me since I changed some data.

1900564491 (ISBN13: 9781900564496)

1904634133 (ISBN13: 9781904634133)
