So now we have Angela's Ashes listed under Frank McCourt (the author!) and under Emily Watson (the actress!). I think this is one of those times when the info has been automatically uploaded from Amazon & they have this dvd wrongly categorised as a book. Given all this, what should we do? (There may be many other examples like this, I haven't looked yet.)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Separate it from the other editions and put NOT A BOOK in front of the title and put DVD in the description field or after the title? No point in deleting because it will automatically go back on GR via Amazon, if that's what happened.

GR Librarians did good: It was not combined. I put NOT A BOOK in front of the title, etc. (If another GR librarian wants to better edit this, feel free.)

Paul Bryant | 96 comments Do all the reviews attached to the Not A Book stay there or can they be transferred over to the real book?

Otis (and probably Elizabeth and Jessica) can do transfers like that. Regular librarians cannot.

(Also, each GRer has the ability to move any of their own reviews.)
