Thanks Amanda - I wasn't sure because there was no ISBN or any other info

this book with this isbn does not exist and has no record under any publishing house (as it is not stated in this register either) considering the unmatching description languag..."
It has a valid ISBN, and just because you cannot ind a current listing does not mean it does not exist.
Merged the second part of your request.

Looking at worldcat, it appears there was some data mix-up.
http://www.worldcat.org/title/gartner...
Since the ISBN starts with a 3, it should be a german book, which matches the worldcat data. However, 6 people have added it. Do we merge the book and re-add it correctly, or correct the data and let the reviewers sort things out themselves?
Mod
The latter seems preferable to me.
vicki_girl wrote: "Re 216, one is listed a s a paperback, the other as hardcover."I know but it's new and has just been published as a hardcover (the "paperback" doesn't have an isbn)... Do we just leave it in case a paperback edition is published later?

I was actually leaning the other way. Six people have shelved it. Of those, 3 currently have their location listed as Turkey, and another has it marked as Turkish literature. (For the remaining two, one is in NY, and the other is a private profile.)
Got 229. However, this edition has a truncated ISBNhttp://www.goodreads.com/book/show/95...
Do you have the full ISBN?
Re 236: Those all appear to have unique covers.
Please merge this : http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...to this edition : http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/82...
The novella is part of the anthology and never published as separate works
Can you merge these two no isbn bookshttp://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...
with this?
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...
Can you combine these 2 books?http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/21...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16... is a duplicate of http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16... I think.. I understand Kindle books and ebooks are not really the same (?), but the ISBN 9780983478294 leads to the same book. A little help?

Merged item 1 with most popular Turkish edition.
For item 2, at least one library lists it as available:

NOTE: Not all libraries are on Worldcat.
This is a notebook/journal rather than an actual bookhttp://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...
I was not sure if they should be deleted or not.
Got 248.Re 249, according to the description, those contain "beautiful and instantly-recognizable Twilight Saga cover art and is fully-designed throughout with images and decorative quotes from each of the books, as well as some of the classic works of literature that inspired them." The Manual states "These items are books: [...] "blank" books with additional text or collectible artwork..."
Should these be deleted? They are found as bonus stories/extras in the new editions of Switched, Torn, and Ascend.http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14...

This edition: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...
can be deleted and merged with this one:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/85...
I've separated, but after deletion the main title can be recombined with the other Stenhuggaren editions.
Thanks!
Wasn't sure what would happen to 2 author profiles so if someone could handle this. Same book but diff author names used so...Kindle version w/ "Vincent Shearman" (but see name on cover) @ http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...
HB/PB versions w/ "V. E. Shearman" @ http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/75...
Thanks.
Finished 1, 5 and the last one of 253. I'm not sure how we handle reprints, so I've left the other editions alone. 255, 256, 257 done. Thanks Sylvie for separating into the correct editions.@ETA: We (usually) go by what's on the cover for author names, so I changed/merged both profiles into "V.E. Shearman".

It says Crown Publishing Group - which is accurate - but the ISBN is the same as the Hogarth edition it will be merged into.
