Listopia discussion

Hello, I would like to add more than 100 books to my list, so could somebody help me by voting to some books that are already in it? So I could remove my vote from them and add more books to the list. Thank you.

Here are the lists:

Sports Romances: Football/Soccer: https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1...

Brother's Best Friend Romances: https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1...

Done. This is a recurring problem for list maintainers. I could use this same ask on as many of the most-ratings lists as possible - https://www.goodreads.com/list/tag/mo...

But especially
https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/3...

Could y'all please vote on Books with ratings from 80 thousand to 90 thousand?

Most help would be to vote for 100 books already on this list that can visibly be seen to have between 80,000 to 89,999 ratings especially for books with only 1 voter.

Thanks so much.

Can you please vote on these lists?

Sports Romances: Hockey: https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1...

Bodyguard Romances: https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1...

Marriage of convenience Romances: https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1...

Done. And thanks for your help on maintaining the 80k to 90k list. Again - your help would be helpful on any of the #rating lists.

Some suggestions about creating maintainable lists:

1 put in a limitation in the list to try to get the targeted number of the books to be approximately within the number of maintainers. This generally means <100 books. This can be done by limiting books to a publishing date range, or a number of ratings range (usually a minimum number), or a number of shelvings in a topic or limiting books in a series to only the first book. These limits also help for when (not if) the list gets vandalized. Getting a librarian to remove a book from a list without super-clear criteria is much harder - generally I won't do it - and I became a librarian solely to remove books from lists.

2 drive usage of the lists - use the tags. use the description. look for related lists - like say popular romance - and announce your lists in the comments. add links to related lists in the description. The more active good users of a list, the easier it is to maintain. The million ratings list has only two active maintainers - but it has a lot of voters - though mostly they haven't found the second page.

3 become a librarian - vandalism both intentional and unintentional of goodreads lists are inevitable. And becoming a librarian and using that power to maintain your own lists is much easier than begging other librarians to do it for you.

4 recognize that a single voter on a book on a list is a risk - their goodreads profile gets closed and that vote goes away. And there is no hint as to which books were lost.

Please vote on the following to help maintain these lists:
90,000 to 99,999 ratings
Popular Romance on Goodreads with between 25000 and 50000 ratings
Best Science Fiction of the 20th Century

Please von on the list:

Sports Romances: Baseball https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1...

Anyone out there reading this - feel free to also vote on these lists as well as post about other lists with the same challenge. Again this is not really promoting a list - though that would fit the concept of this group.

Please vote on the following lists so that they can continue to be maintained:

All Non Fiction on Goodreads with 25,000 to 49,999 ratings

All Non Fiction on Goodreads with 50,000 to 99,999ratings

Please vote on the list:
https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1...

Thank you

Please vote on the following lists so the can continue to be maintained:
Books with ratings from 150 thousand to 200 thousand
Books with ratings from 100 thousand to 150 thousand

This has been a really useful thread for me and Fairytalesbliss - but if there is anyone else out there, having more people helping maintain these lists by also voting would be really useful. And pointing out other lists that need help - say award winner and nominee lists would also be a great use of this thread.

Is there anyone else out there?
