There are two editions from that publisher (W. W. Norton & Company). I have added a note to both that these editions were cancelled.

Vicky (librovert) | 2462 comments I don't know about 714 and 715 - I know ingram says they are a 10pk, but Worldcat brings up both books and you can find them under that ISBN on Amazon where there's nothing to indicate that it's a package. Anyone else want to weigh in?

Publisher lists them:

714: http://www.banneroftruth.org/pages/it...

715: http://www.banneroftruth.org/pages/it...

I would say just correct the title and leave them.

If they're on WorldCat, that's a strong bit of evidence for them being regular books. Given that the publisher does too, I think that's sufficient proof.


message 710: by Vicky (new)

Vicky (librovert) | 2462 comments Sounds good, I fixed them up!


message 711: by L-D (new)

L-D (lannie95) | 15 comments I was looking for a book and 3 books came up with same title/author. I believe one of these can be deleted (the one with no ISBN #, and the other two can be merged (one looks like a kindle edition). Thanks!

Got 722-725.


message 718: by Emy (new)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments Is it worth deleting this Unknown Book? I managed to identify one edition, but this one eludes me and has no identifying data at all that I can see :S

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/60...

It thinks it's http://www.goodreads.com/work/edition..., so I could restore it as an edition of one that isn't on (assuming there is one), but want to check before I make such a wholesale change!

As far as I know, we are still keeping these books. They are leftover from the removal of Amazon data.

Aye - usually I can track them down though, but this one is/was a completely blank entry. I'm happy to go on a hunt and see if I can find another edition that isn't shown already and make it that, but don't want to do that until I'm sure it's OK :)

Violetta | 477 comments I don't see any reason for the following NOT to have an ISBN and believe they are duplicate, and can be deleted:

for the first link, different page counts?

in any case, it is better to also give the link of which book(s) it was supposed to merged with (it is even better if we can separate the books to be merged), so the superlib can have easier jobs merge and recombine later.

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments As Nenangs says, separating is helpful. Regardless, for 730 the second one has been merged. I don't see any similar edition to merge the first one into so I've left it alone.

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/71...

The author has left a note asking for this to be deleted as there is no such thing, and it looks to me like it's a bad record that got created in error, but it needs a superlibrarian.

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/62...
ISBN already on system as:

(originally had wrong author listed)


message 733: by vicki_girl (new)

vicki_girl | 2764 comments Got 740, 741.

Got the first link on 742 (plus a few other editions needing deletion). Will look at the anthology ones later.)


message 734: by Cait (new)

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments Re: 743: It looks like the publisher reserved the ISBN and then didn't do anything with it. I'll take it down and then NAB the ISBN.

This book doesn't exist. It's a fictional novel that appears in The Fault in our Stars. Can you delete please?


message 738: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments Gone. Felt a little guilty about it because clearly they did some work on it, but it is definitely not real and clearly confusing people.

Mustafa do you just want it combined with the original? If so which title should it be combined with?
