For editions to be merged with something other than the work default, please remember to separate out the two editions for merging before posting in this thread. [Non-librarians: Please just note in your requests that you are unable to complete this step.]

NOTE: This thread is for requesting the deletion of true duplicates -- two entries for the same edition of a book. If you need help with anything else (e.g.: moving books off an author's page where they have appeared in error, author disambiguation, combining editions, etc.) please start a NEW THREAD in this folder.

Colleen | 3 comments Hi! I was trying to add myself as a contributor to: /book/show/4...

and made an error and created a duplicate indicating I am the author of the edited volume. This is the duplicate: /book/show/4...

Please delete the duplicate, I am a contributor on the primary entry, not the author. THank you!

That's not enough reason to delete them altogether, but they do seem to have multiple editions without additional information.

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments Working from #17 to #26

For my reference
Carolyn Turgeon
Kim Cross (2^)

Re #21 - yes - if the others are valid, then these should be too, but I would expect us to improve the records with data we do know.

#17-20 Queued
#22 Separated it's duplicate, added missing data to your edition. Merge pending then will recombine with House of Gold
#23/24 Doing this one last. It will take some time.
#26 Leaving for now as it does have a valid link. Would prefer not to do a full delete as it'll lose all reviews.

Katherine, it might be best to use the Clarkesworld thread for these short story requests, as they often take a bit longer to clean up properly.


message 21: by Emy (new)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments #25 ŷ does not delete out of print works, which includes "unpublished" ebooks. We're a catalogue not a book vendor.


message 22: by Katherine (last edited May 08, 2019 12:00PM) (new)

Katherine (athryn) | 336 comments re 23 - If the various short stories should be merged into their original magazine publications instead, let me know and I'll do that work and repost in the magazine thread.

Re 26 - I'll make a merge target for it, ISFDB has data on the periodical.

Emily | 17067 comments #49, we do not delete valid books. If a reader wishes to add a copy of the book with their cover they are welcome to. If the other book hasn't been published in any form, the author can send a message to Support about its circumstances from the Help tab at the bottom of the page, and they can make a decision.
