Please delete this book! (pt. 15)


The user wrote the name wrong. The original book is that: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...
Note: At first, there were 2 wrong titled books and they were combined. I separated them, edited the most reviewed one and tried to delete the book I just linked first here. It has only 1 review. However, I am not able to delete it.
Thanks!

Don't do this (separate the edition to be deleted from all the others) before deleting. If you had left them combined and then tried to delete that edition, it would have move over the review to the correct edition, which I have now done.

but it has the same cover as the original ed.:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10...
I looked at the change log for the original and don't see a change of covers (I clicked "undo" and nothing undid).
I did upload a "new" image to the alternate but only a clearer image, not a different one.
So is there any point in keeping the alternate?

this: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13... and http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/40... have actually the same ISBN, it's impossible to understand if it's a case of alternate cover edition (since both the books have not all the required details - sigh).
I think it's possible to merge them and delete one of the two edition, unfortunately to many adds, so I ask help.

I have separated these to be merged. However, one has a librarian note, in (I assume) Indonesian. Do you know what it says?

Re 874: Got the first link. Second is a rescue edition.
Got 875.
Re 876: More research may be required. I'm short on time now however. I will look into it later if no one else has responded.
Re 877: That is a rescue edition. AFAIK we are not deleting those at this time.
Someone else already got 878.
Got 879.

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13... is Indonesian edition for

As for the librarian note, its from me to say for another Indonesian library to follow the right naming title system.

That way when the duplicate is deleted, the reviews will move over to the edition it is a duplicate of, rather than the most popular (English) edition. It is helpful, in fact, if you can do such separations before posting in this thread.

So, the Indonesian edition is separated from the original edition now. Then, can you remove its duplicate?

There is a librarian note in Italian. Do you know what it says?

Effectively it's stating that it should be merged with the edition linked in the librarian's note. The only thing is the author [edit: of the note] says both "combine" and "merge".

Please delete this, it was added in error."
It appears to have a legitimate ISBN. Why do you think it needs deleted?

Thanks, Vicki!
