Hakan (hakan42) | 15 comments the Lightspeed Magazine issues are in two Series:

http://www.goodreads.com/series/66067... (25 issues)

and

http://www.goodreads.com/series/89739... (30 issues)

Should they be merged by an admin or is it enough to just remove issues from the first Series until it is empty?

Banjomike | 5166 comments Did you create the second series before you realized there was an old one?


message 3: by Hakan (new)

Hakan (hakan42) | 15 comments Honestly, yes...


message 4: by Banjomike (new)

Banjomike | 5166 comments My gut feeling is that the oldest series is the one which is likely to have bookmarked most often in the year or so it has existed as opposed your new one which is a week old.

How about adding your five new additions to the OLD series and then maintaing that one from now on?

If that seems ok then post here when you are happy and the newest one can be deleted.

Hakan (hakan42) | 15 comments I added all issues to the OLD series and (nearly) emptied out my new one ( http://www.goodreads.com/series/89739... ) . It can safely be removed now.

Interestingly, I noticed that a series cannot be completely empty, the save method doesn't remove any books if all are removed :-)

Hakan (hakan42) | 15 comments AAAAAAAAH... Now when you point me to it, I see it too... Do you believe I never noticed the delete link?

Actually, nearly everything on that page is overshadowed by the big honking "Save" button :-)
