Susie (dragonsusie) | 2469 comments It doesn't happen that often, but two of us were working the book-deletion thread at the same time and both editions were deleted by accident. I believe that it is possible to undelete (I'm sure I've seen it done before)?

Just in case you don't see where it was, I thought I'd post it here:

Sorry, but it's not possible. The book will need to be re-added to the database.

Susie (dragonsusie) | 2469 comments OK. Is it different, then, if just one edition is deleted by accident? Or is it just completely impossible to reverse?

Looks like the import has already added it back, anyway.

The deletion is of a single edition is also not reversible.

This book seems to have disappeared without a trace. (How) could it have been deleted by the author?

Searching for the ASIN B00QB49T92 gives the unexpected error screen. I don't think it is deleted. Probably give it some time to show in the search again.
