Not the wrong category at all! Not really my area of knowledge, so a bit unsure what I am separating out.Can you confirm which of the titles should be combined, and which should be separate.
Are there two "titles" here (the #1 and the #1 + #2) or more than that?
Thanks Emy. Let me more explicit and add on another correction.Here's the work in question:
http://www.goodreads.com/work/edition...
The following edition should be uncombined from the work (i.e., it should become its own work):
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10... ("Ultimate Fantastic Four, Vol. 1 (Ultimate Fantastic Four hardcovers, #1)).
The following foreign language edition should ALSO be unmerged from the work, and merged into the new work created above (it is another hardcover collection of the first 12 issues):
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15... (Ultimate Fantastic Four: Lo fantástico (Marvel Deluxe Ultimate Fantastic Four #1))
Incidentally, is unmerging/uncombining something only a mythical "Super Librarian" can do? How would I apply to become one?
No, any librarian can unmerge using the "Separate" links on the Combine page.SupersLibrarians are discovered by some supersecret process that not even they know all about... ;)
Separated off #1 & #2 above to make their own "Work" - also added Librarian Notes to explain.
Can you check the titling now as I'm not confident they show the differences properly...
Emy: OMG. I didn't see that stupid "Separate" link! I could have done this all along myself. I'm sorry for bothering you :( I'll go in and review your changes and correct anything else. Thanks for taking the time.
Hehe, no problem - it's how we learn after all :)

Contrary to what the index says, it is not a paperback, nor is it equivalent to the volume 1 paperbacks (the hardcover volume 1 encompasses volume 1 AND 2 of the paperbacks, so it's not even 1-for-1). I've previously contacted the librarian who thinks they merged these records (or, at least, was responsible for changing the series from hardcover to paperback), and they're OK with the unmerging.
