The correct edition is http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/97...
There seems to be at least three versions of A Beautiful Blue Death audio CD, and then another for the 'audiobook', and none match the ISBN of the edition I'm actually listening to. Are there actually that many editions, all from the same publisher/producer?http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...

They all have different ISBN's which makes them individual editions and they should stay."
I guess I was just confused because it seemed like they were different editions of the same book but not classified that way (not merged). I didn't understand the guide's advice on that topic.

The covers are different - one has the yellow band across it the other does not

Are there actua..."If your ISBN does not exist then you need to add a new edition. If the ISBN does exist then you need to review and post what is different. I would suggest you start a new thread since this one is for deleting editions.
They are all editions of the same book:
1) They all have different ISBN's which make them individual editions
2) They are combined with the other editions already - if you look on the upper right hand side of the book page there is a listing for the other editions - there are 11 other editions.
We use the term merge to mean delete - so that if you delete an edition you are actually removing it from the DB and if there are reviews attached they are moved to another edition (if the book is combined with the other editions in the first place)
I think that this: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/64...and this:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...
are the same book, unfortunately too much owners, so I need a superlibrarian.

They have different covers so do not get deleted - they did need combining though

I tried deleting these, but it keeps timing out on me. (I think one did go through though.)
Rivka may need to get the staff to do it from their end.

Please merge http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/79... (cropped isbn) into http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12... thanks
88 done. I'm leaving all the book extra ones, because I'm at work and I don't have the time to pay them the attention they need.
For 90, improper add. Fixing the record, with no need for the merge.
Hello, Helping Angels...Could you please MERGE my newest books--I uploaded the back cover by mistake...the Good One is, of course, the one with title and author name (Head of a Cat)--
This one should be merged into the first--so that the collage doesn't show.
Thanks, as always.
Thank you so much, as always! (I still have a lot to learn).Inge H. Borg
Please merge http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16... (former title typo) into http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...thanks!
Truncated ISBN, delete. Will merge with correct edition.http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...
Then re-combine with these two:

Note these are the graphic novel, not the original novel.
