My book removed...cannot upload a 5 MB file

ssangra

Dear Admins
I have twoconcerns.
When I uploaded the bob meyer book ...i had checked on search and result was not showing anything. Strangely admin deleted my upload saying it is duplicate probably because they did possibly detect some duplicate. However am mystified why a search on forum for bob meyer still does not  show up any results....so wailing away in unhappiness at losing pts. (screen shot is duly attached)

I tried to upload a book of abt 5 Mb and the page does not let me.



can u pls help ? Thanks in advance

Hi... The correct name of the author is Bob Mayer, not «Bob Meyer». A user noticed the error in the title of the thread and for that reason reported duplicity, and indeed, the duplicity of the book Atlantis by Bob Mayer existed and the correction had to be applied.
• The book «Atlantis by Bob Mayer» has been shared before here: BOB MAYER – 3 SERIES
It is advisable that you verify and correctly write the name of the author of the book, to ensure an accurate search.
- Indeed, some users are facing some difficulties when sharing books, the Administration has been informed about it, we hope that a solution can be found soon.

Spelling saves the day. Appreciate Pedro's keen eye...perhaps with a little Rate.

And then there's also the issue of the suspect CM Search. Thnx to Admins/Mods, relevant advice is duplicated and locked at the top of multiple CM threads to use a very specific Google search to verify eBook existence or duplicity. Reading also saves the day, but be forewarned, I've seen Google take as long as 4 weeks to sync with a new CM upload.

Without the help of the users, it would not be possible to detect these errors in a timely manner. My thanks to everyone who helps me keep the Reading Room section clean and tidy.
Yes, unfortunately there is no infallible search method, only the native search option of the forum and the search option through Google are available, and both have their own limitations, so it is recommended to use both options simultaneously to minimize the probability of duplicity and verify the correct writing of what you want to look for. But as I said, it is the users who detect the cases of duplicity most of the time.
As an additional note, the only case of duplicity that can lead to a severe sanction, is deliberate and repetitive duplicity despite the warnings... Fortunately, that case is rare.
The majority of cases of duplicity are due to spelling errors during the search of contents and by omission of the previous search. These are cases that do not merit sanctions, only the reinforcement of the importance and the need to carry out the search correctly.
