She has never written a book just called "pleasure" but has multiple with that word, so I am not sure which they were thinking.
Re 1171: The first two are merged. Not 100% sure what to do with the third since it's hard to tell what they thought they were shelving.

Should it be deleted?"
Do you mean its not published yet? I think its okay to add a book that not published, at last its have title and expected date of publication
Yes, it is not published yet.Wow, I just realized that there are A LOT of books which are not published but already put in goodreads.
What is the policy of goodreads in this issue actually?

It's acceptable. Many readers and/or authors create placeholders in anticipation of books being published.
Emmalee, I got yours, but in the future could you please combine the book that needs to be deleted with the other editions? That way when it gets deleted the reviews get merged. Thanks!Someone else got 1181.

Ok, I wondered what I should do about the review.
Please delete this one:http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/23...
Duplicate, no ISBN and other data whatsoever.
re 1188: I was going to straight up merge them, but the incorrect profile has some fans. *sigh* GR employee thread here I come.
This is a duplicate (one of many that had Cheeta as the sole or co-author!):http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/84...
Can be deleted and merged with http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/44...
Thanks!
Please delete this duplicate: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16...which has more reviews but is using the ISBN 13 (as ISBN 10) of this one:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...
Thanks!
#1193 is done, EXCEPT for these, because my "separate" function is not working. >.<Actual: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...
Duplicate: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...
(Appears that actual ISBN-13 was truncated for duplicate ISBN-10 slot. Looking up the ISBN-10 on the duplicate only turns up that Goodreads page.)

Duplicate: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/54...
(Assuming description on duplicate is in Arabic because that's the default. But it appears to be a duplicate of the main French version.)

Merged that one (as well as another duplicate I found among the editions).
Hi, I'm trying to delete this book: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16... but it keeps telling me only a caped librarian (aka super-librarian) can delete a book with this many reviews. Funny since there are none... It's a duplicate of another book and normally I'd keep it and merge it as another edition but for now there will only be one edition. Any caped
Thanks! :)
Finished 1193/1195Got 1194.
Re #1196, both editions appear to have a legitmate ISBN. Why do you think it needs deleted?
#1200 doneETA: Deleting it while it was combined with the other placeholder should've worked; trying to delete it when it's the only edition aka separated will get you the superlibrarian message.

Thanks for that! I didn't know that.
Thanks Amara but both books are the same and no need to merge. I cut the ISBN of the book (link above) and pasted it to the book with red cover. Somebody created two books at the same time by using the same ISBN.

Deleting the book unattached to the other edition would have deleted that shelving.
Hello.I need a Super-Librarian for this one.
This is a duplicate, it can be merged to the other one we have.

Re: 1209 and 1210Both of the editions linked have valid ISBNs.
Not sure why you think they are duplicates.
