We don't delete out-of-print books, so I've combined the new ones with their older counterparts.

S.E. Nelson (senelson) | 14 comments Dear Librarian,
Thank you for combining my book with the others. However it has a wrong publishing date. It should be March, 2011. You put in the date of the original publisher.

Thank you.

Amara Tanith (aftanith) Hi, Suzanna. Each record actually has two dates: the original publishing date, which is the same across all editions, and each edition's individual date of publication.

That book had its original publication date already, but no one ever entered the edition-specific publication date for the edition you linked. I have now done so. :)

(Edited because I apparently can't spell.)

Center for Children's & Young Adult Literature (ccyal) | 1 comments A couple of related problems. The two Dark Tower Rising books need to be combined, and the two Skyfall books need to be combined. In addition, their ISBNs need to be corrected, so I've listed those too. These happen to be part of the Troll Hunters series, so you could add that too, if you want.

Chuck (chuckwelch) | 22 comments While attempting to add the first paperback edition of "Anything You Can Do..." by Randall Garrett I think I created a new entry. The 1969 edition is the same novel but without the extra information added in 2010.

2010 Anything You Can Do ..

1969 Anything You Can Do ..

The 1969 edition is notable for being the first to not use the author's pseudonym.

Thanks.

This is the Corgi edition
In Search Of Ancient Mysteries

Which needs to be combined with

Thanks!

vicki_girl | 2764 comments Fixed the ISBNs in 631 and added the series.


message 616: by Chuck (new)

Chuck (chuckwelch) | 22 comments I believe this is the same book/edition

50 Short Science Fiction Tales

of the main entry at

Fifty Short Science Fiction Tales

They're the same editors and publisher, but someone entered "50" instead of "Fifty."

Thanks!

I merged the author profiles and combined the books - but the published date is different so I will not delete the edition.

Chuck (chuckwelch) | 22 comments Makes perfect sense. Thanks for looking into it.

Renske, thank you. Just one question: the paperback copy which you have combined has now the English description but shouldnt it have the Danish one, since it is the translation we are talking about?! I know the paperback didnt have one but it seems it has been overruled with the English with the default setting?

Paperback: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...
Hardcover: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13... (which does have the Danish description)

Sorry for all the bother but I feel now responsible since I stumbled upon it :)

message 626: by Chuck (new)

Chuck (chuckwelch) | 22 comments I believe these two entries should be combined

The Expert Dreamers

is the book club edition containing the same stories and articles as

The Expert Dreamers

See the item at WorldCat:

Chuck (chuckwelch) | 22 comments Two story collections edited by Terry Carr have entries of editions attributed to John Carr

Terry Carr edited both these collections and never used the pseudonym John Carr

(1)

TC: Creatures from Beyond: Nine Stories of Science Fiction and Fantasy

JC: Creatures from Beyond

Worldcat entry: http://www.worldcat.org/title/creatur...

(2)

TC: Into the Unknown: Eleven Tales of imagination

JC: Into the Unknown

Worldcat entry: http://www.worldcat.org/title/into-th...

Thanks!


message 629: by Chuck (new)

Chuck (chuckwelch) | 22 comments I believe these two entries by Hannah Campbell should be combined into two editions at least:

Why Did They Name It

Why Did They Name It

Worldcat entry: http://www.worldcat.org/title/why-did...

Thanks!

sorry to 'bother' you with the same book. I think the following edition can also be combined with those mentioned in message 669:
