And I don't think this is unique enough either:

Pamela, I have seen you very politely post this several times. I applaud your patience with us. However, I want to let you know that you are not being purposefully ignored, at least not by me.
These appear to excerpts or extras from the authors website. In the past these were allowed, but there has recently been discussion of changes to this policy.
I personally don't feel comfortable deleting them until Rivka has looked it and let us know how these should be addressed under the new policy.

I'm sorry, I accidentally created it when creating this one:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16...
And then didn't notice it until the second one was created. Please maintain the second book, it's the most complete one.
Thank you!

They both had the same ASIN except one was being held in the ISBN field. I own that same edition and the cover is the same as the one in the second link above.

The policy isn't really new, but it has been clarified. Extras that are published as separate books (e.g., via Kindle, Nook, etc., or by designation of the author as ebooks) should be left. These don't seem to meet that threshold, so each should be merged into whichever book it goes with (or the first if it goes "with" more than one).

One has slightly more info (page count) than the other, otherwise they are the same

should be merged with this one
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28...
The first has a completely nonsensical ISBN and in the change log I see a lot of information was changed significantly, and this is the best fit I could find.

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/76...

can be merged into the most popular Spanish edition

Does this mean the books I listed should be deleted?

Yes. I will work on them later today, if no one else gets to it first.

I write to ask your opinion about deleting it or not, the ISBN is quite strange and I cannot find it in google, any opinion?
@43 --> 1 and 3 done, the second seems like an alternate cover edition but I did not find details about that edition.

That's a Barnes &Noble Nook edition. Those have an ISBN-13 that starts with 294. I erased the ISBN-10, as it is "junk" that isn't even recognized by B&N.

Thanks, I didn't know :)
@43 I've also done the 4th request. For the 2nd I'm not sure about deleting or combining with an "alternate cover" note.

Thanks! I'll ask the details (isbn etc.) about the 2nd.
Sorry if I asked and didn't it myself, but I wanted to be sure. Thanks again!

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...
Perhaps merge it with the book first, assuming that is where the reviews belong
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

Another one to delete has ISBN 13 in ISBN 10 field which luckily matches the most popular edition
