Please delete this book! (pt. 13)
Re 762: It does need to be merged into the duplicate you linked (the ISBN-13 are the same, but the former is missing the final digit), but we won't be able to do that until after the giveaway ends.
placeholder http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...someone tried to enter the ISBN13 in the ISBN10 spot on this one so it needs to be merged with the proper entry (I already separated the two) and recombined with the others http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...
not sure about this....there is no ebook edition
it is available in kindle & paperback (the author refers to being available in ebook, but it is only kindle format)

I think that this may be the original edition that is no longer published. However I would leave it because while there is no evidence that what I just said is correct at the very least it isn't incorrect.
On #777: The first two are taken care of...they were exactly the same, so I could tell for sure.The second two, I can't tell for certain...I'm going to leave those for someone who actually speaks Japanese.
Barbara,We don't delete books that are out of print. Users may have read or own these books and the GRs database is treated more like a library than a storefront.
Duplicate editions already combined:http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/52...

I got one and someone got the other.
Lafon. That means that all the reviews are gone
The links are 2 different books. I think he means that he got 1 book and you got the other.

Blank edition with no indication of what it is a duplicate of:http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...
checked the log and no one deleted the ISBN or ASIN
Merged it with a paperback with the same cover.

Got the others. I don't speak Japanese (other than a few phrases), but Worldcat and Wikipedia confirmed they were the same.

You're a few phrases ahead of me!
Actually, that one had its ISBN incorrectly removed to transfer it to an alternate cover edition. Restored it and properly marked the alternate cover edition.
This is has a transposed ISBN:http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...
and should be deleted and merged into this:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...
and then recombined with the other editions of Sjöjungfrun (The Drowning).
Thanks!

Restored it and properly marked the alternate cover edition."Actually, whoever transferred that ISBN seems to be in the right. I can't find any reseller that has that cover and it's not listed on the publisher's website either (here).
I also contacted the author on Twitter and he said that it was an "unused rough produced by the publisher" (here). I understand that GR catalogues books that never went into mass production as long as they have a valid ISBN, but what about this case? It seems to me that a rough draft shouldn't be thought of as an alternate cover edition. Is it safe to assume that it needs to go?
The book Love Finds You in Dodge City, Kansas needs to be deleted because it was changed to a different title: Love Finds You in Deadwood, South Dakota already on the site). If you access the authors website at http://www.traceybateman.com/traceycr... you can see Deadwood is the only book listed when this book was supposed to be released last year. The publisher isn't even correct-this series is published by Summerside Press. Thanks!

So, just to make sure I'm correctly understanding the situation, the cover on this one is a pre-production cover, and this is the cover that was actually released with the ISBN/book?

Alright then, got the missing details and proper cover transferred to the ISBN'd edition and merged. All set now. :)
Please merge this edition http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12... into this one (Remembrance (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12... -- cropped isbn10)thanks!

This looks like a remnant of deleting all the Amazon data and should be left in case an import is found for it.
Hells Kitchen is no longer in the running for Hell's Kitchen.Yeah, that was a pretty lame joke. Is it Friday yet?

Don't worry, it was an edition with a wrongly spelled author name, no Amazon issue here.

Yeah, I checked the librarian edits, it was a bad entry.
