Rosenkavalier | 52 comments Hi, while "saving" my books, I found that this Italian edition of Hagakure has been added to a series with a Spanish name ("Colecciòn Lado Oriental") that has nothing to do with it.

I don't know how to separate it from the series. Can anyone help? Thanks!

Violetta | 477 comments Someone got it. It's now only in the Enwor series.

Rosenkavalier | 52 comments What happened? That is not the book I linked.

This is the correct one:

All editions of a book share a series, regardless of language. You can add the Italian name of the series in its description field.

Vicky (librovert) | 2462 comments I don't think this series is a series - I think it's a collection put out by a Spanish publisher.

The three books listed are all by different authors and were first published in 1716, 1898 and 1973.

Aha! Ok, then go ahead and zap it.


message 7: by Rosenkavalier (new)

Rosenkavalier | 52 comments Correct, the Italian edition does not belong to any series.


message 8: by Vicky (new)

Vicky (librovert) | 2462 comments The series is gone now.

Susanna - Censored by GoodReads (susannag) | 68 comments I think To Serve Them All My Days has incorrectly had a series ("Swann Saga #3) added to it; I don't recall anyone at all named Swann in it.

Verified and corrected.

BookLovingLady (deceased Jan. 25, 2023...) | 60 comments Hi,

Can someone solve the following problem for me, please? I have added a Dutch edition of Bonjour Tristesse by Françoise Sagan (title of the Dutch edition is left in French, in case you are wondering). Once I added the book, I noticed that someone made Bonjour Tristesse part of a series called 'Penguin Great Loves'.
In my opinion this in incorrect because now, no matter which publisher or which language, all other editions of Bonjour Tristesse become part of this Penguin series and that's not correct. I don't know how to solve this though, so if someone can solve this for me, it would be much appreciated. Thanks!

By the way, my Dutch edition is also part of a publisher's series, which I have mentioned under 'edition', as to me this would be the correct place to put this info. Do correct me if I'm wrong though.

You're right, it should not be part of a series. That series shouldn't even BE a series, if that makes sense. Will fix.

I've added an italian translation of Somebody Owes Me Money and I noticed that is a part of a series called "Hard Case Crime":

It looks like a publisher's series, could someone check it?

Agreed. Deleted.

Stephen Richards (StephenRichards) | 20 comments Hi,

For some odd reason one the librarians has moved one of my titles and put it in as an edition of a totally separate title.

Can you please put this title below back into my author profile without attaching it incorrectly as an edition of Cosmic Ordering Guide. It is a stand alone title.

Title: Cosmic Ordering: Oracle Wish Cards
ISBN: 1902578279 (ISBN13: 9781902578279)
Goodreads URL page: http://www.goodreads.com/work/edition...

Thanks,
Stephen Richards
