I came across a textbook and added it to my catalogue:
https://www.librarything.com/work/33052428/work/273763946
When I go to "Edit your book", I get the dimensions several times, i.e.:
Dimensions
–
height length thickness
23.5 16.6 2.7 cm
height length thickness
23.5 16.6 2.7 cm
height length thickness
23.5 16.6 2.7 cm
height length thickness
23.5 16.6 2.7 cm
I think what happened was that I added the book from a library source (Det kongelige Bibliotek) and entered dimensions from the "Your books" view. So maybe the library record was a bit funny because this is part of a textbook series? And then the LT interface just added the data I entered into all four Dimensions fields?
Anyway I wanted to record this case for the benefit of others who might see something similar.
This oddity is not displayed in the TSV export, so maybe the only way to see it is by using "Edit book"?
I'll wait a while before tidying this record up, in case some LT staff wants to take a look at it.

For a long while, I've gotten duplicate weight values in books added from sources. I suspect Amazon is the main culprit here, and I'm not sure that it's been happening lately. It's easy enough to fix when I clean up the added entry (as I always do), but I'm wondering if it's related to this situation.

>3 lesmel: Maybe, but duplicated page numbers should be reflected in the TSV export and I usually catch stuff like that. Except I've never seen this sort of error in the TSV export. ... Hmm, maybe I don't very often add page numbers this way. So I don't know if this is one bug or two bugs (or even three or more bugs).
