I have just packed the book away and will be a while before I see it again :/ Is it a big issue that it doesn't have one? (Sorry, this is probably not the place to ask) And is the ISBN on other websites for the same book, same edition (like bookdepository.com) okay to be put on goodreads? Like can I copy the ISBN from that website?

#680 - no record of alt cover so all gone
This isn't a real version...just a misspelled title with no ISBN. I merged it with the correct versions, but I need a superlibrarian to delete it:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...This novel already has a goodreads page...........don't know who added this one..............
682-684 done685 that edition is the Kindle edition with its ASIN and it is a valid edition. I combined it with the other edition. If you only have a Kindle edition we can merge them to one edition. If there is also an other ebook edition they should both stay and you may want to update the ebook edition with the ISBN (or ask for help to do that)

Thanks so much.

These don't look like valid stand alone editions there is no isbn, year, format, they are even using just the "default" desc, etc
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (shelved by 4 ppl)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (shelved by 1 person)
Maybe they can just be merged with the most common edition https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
DONE

I was told that all I had to do was ask, the reason I am asking for it to be deleted is because the book is no longer published, I have actaully rewritten/ republished , and would like to upload the new version cover, plus the original was published by my pen name which i no longer use, there has to be a way to fix this. Thank you

I'm not sure who told you that or in what context. Perhaps they thought you were referring to a not-yet-published book? In any case, Goodreads does not delete out-or-print works or editions.
New editions can of course be added. I think the new one already exists: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
thank i guess, ill figure something out
can I at least get my cover photo changed?

this book has a 10 digit isbn in the 13 field.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... DELETE/MERGE it because there is already a valid version of this book with this isbn correctly in the 10 digit field https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Hello, I've just seen that there are several books on my author page that are nothing to do with me. But seem to written by and author who shares my name. I would be grateful if you would delete ALL the books except for Three Months of Chaos by Alex Mitchell. It is a novella and I think the others are full length. Thank you very much.
I made an evident mistake defining https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
title should be "L'arte di essere felici e vivere a lungo"

I got #719. But you should probably keep it out of this DELETE THIS BOOK thread in the future. We don't need to delete it, just edit it.

RE: #718 This one also doesn't need to be in the DELETE THIS BOOK thread. You could just make your own thread and someone will set you up as Alex^^Mitchell with two spaces or they will move all of the other Alex Mitchell books to a Alex^^Mitchell with two spaces. Someone with more experience will know which way is more appopriate.

#665 done first pair, but other two have different but valid ISBN13s
#666 - ISBN pair is definitely correct, and links to that title on Worldcat: http://www.worldcat.org/title/prince-... The book I think you are referring to was published in 1965, so before ISBNs were habitually assigned to titles. My suspicion is that it has been mistakenly attributed to the older title as that number doesn't look right for Houghton Mifflin (although Sourcebooks Casablanca looks different too!). Leaving for now.
#667 - flipping DB :P separating them off now. And done once recombine goes through.
#668 - truncated ISBN edition merged into other. Recombining now.
#669 - Combining first before I can do the merge - please can you not leave trailing editions. Done now.
