hey..i can delete the one which you added since it is already present in the database. But I see that you have written a review for it so you have to write it all over again.

The OP has a related thread here. I suggest you leave it.

Ra§ïkα, please do not delete books with reviews, even if they are duplicates. A merge might be appropriate, but you seem to be unclear on the difference between a merge and a straight deletion.

Rasika (rasikalokhande) | 40 comments I did try to merge but the original book was not getting separated. And to merge we have to separate the two books right? Please tell me if I am wrong.

You are not wrong BUT the book that William added does NOT need to be merged. Or deleted. Every edition has an ISBN, thay are all valid and all different.
