Each had half an ISBN. I moved both halves to the fuller record.

Could a super delete this placeholder for a 4 volume series: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/23...
The url doesn't work and I can't find any evidence online that a 4-volume edition really exists. So I've combined it with the first volume in the series.

This one needs to be deleted. It is a duplicate. The hardcover with the correct ISBN13 is already in the database (9780679406839).

Re 226

The edition without the isbn is published in 1955 when isbn's did not exist, the edition u point to is a later published edition when isbns were issued

It should stay

Stories from anthologies, already combined:

So I have made a total mess of trying to add another version of my book and now have three versions where I should only have two. And actually, I'd prefer that the ebook and paperback of my book were marked as separate editions rather than as distinct products, but I don't know how to go about that.

In any event, the following book: ISBN 9780957203 does not exist.

I have two editions - the Kindle edition and the Paperback edition with ISBN13 9780957203907. The third, for which you'll notice there is no cover image, was added because I put the ISBN number in the wrong field.

Are you able to help? Delete the one that doesn't exist and make the other two different editions of the same product rather than separate products?

Thank you!

Got #229

Wow! Whichever librarian it was who sorted that problem out for me within about seven minutes, thank you! Amazing! Before my very eyes (literally as it was changing every time I was doing a search).

Re 237: The books have different publication years, are you sure that they are not distinct editions?

Re 238: Deleted. Please recombine with original title.

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50...

Reasons:
1. No ISBN despite 2008 printing date.
2. Could not find any record for and 2008 editions.
3. 288 pages is page count for volume 1 of 1963 edition.

Currently most popular edition.

ping!

Yes I am sure.
All of anak-anak mama alin series only ever printed once, each book with their own titles. never published as omnibus.
I think that one meant to be as placeholder of the series.

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/31...

This book already exists at http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/20.... However, it seems from the title as though someone's tried to put in a poster as an edition. I'm still a new librarian and not entirely sure what to do about this, but it seems as though it should be deleted.

Merged.

Okay. #237 is now gone. :)

I've identified an unknown book with unknown author (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/92...) as Valmiki's Ramayana (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/71...) through using the ASIN. However, I don't know how to merge. Would someone do that for me please?

These two books are the same (same edition, same ISBN etc). I have combined them, but the second entry needs deleting.

Thank you for uploading my cover and deleting the duplicate of my book THE UGLIES.
