Angel (mnemosyne) | 48 comments I found a user today who has manually added a lot of books. A good number of them are already in the GR database, and those fixes were obviously straightforward.

However, she's added a bunch of things that aren't books, or don't appear to be books. I'd just delete them, but I get the feeling she'd probably just add them again. Here's an example:

This is does not even approach book status. It's a haiku. ("Shiny colored tents. pop up above people's heads. at the first raindrop")

Then there's a bunch of books that she's added under the author name Sid Jones. A bunch of those titles turn out to be part of this:

I'm not even sure what this is. Is it an English textbook? Is it a box set of books?

Delete the non-books. If she adds 'em again, delete them again. She may not, though.

Not sure about those last ones.
