A strange book-link[edit]

The third book named under "publications", the cooperative chapter with his brother AK Lenstra "Algorithms in number theory" (included in Jan van Leeuwen's book) has two ISBN-links. When searching the first ISBN in the special page "book sources", i get a suitable answer, but when searching the second given ISBN i get a _very_ strange answer. I am not sure about it (for me English is a foreign language) but i think this could be a product of an abusive article-edit in the past. I do not know exactly the rules of the English wikipedia, please could someone who knows them initiate the adequate measures? Thank you. --Himbeerbläuling (talk) 21:52, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I just left a very short message on "Editing Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard (new section)" --Himbeerbläuling (talk) 22:05, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Himbeerbläuling, the second ISBN was added at the same time, in this edit. Looking at the scan of the book at [1], the second ISBN is also listed, so i think the issue is with Google and not with Wikipedia. Gbear605 (talk) 01:06, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You are right, thank you. Following your hint, i checked out (on the book sources special page) what Open Library and Amazon say about the second ISBN. They give suitable answers. Only google books ... . Oh it is so puzzling ... --Himbeerbläuling (talk) 15:28, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I told it to google, they did no react. --Himbeerbläuling (talk) 19:58, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately Google is going to do what they want, and the best we can do here on Wikipedia is just have the correct information. Gbear605 (talk) 19:59, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
