You're going to have to provide proof every time you ask for what looks like a unique cover to be merged.

It's the same cover here
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
but in black and white
Some times people add a black and white image for the coever or the inner cover.
Please delete this - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...It is a duplicate of - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Ok, im not really sure if it has to be deleted or not, or what exactly to do with it.https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
This is a duplicate author profile, this author is a goodreads author btw.
Maybe you guys can delete books from this profile or something. I dont think that they should be combined with the original book page, since it is the same edition, basically a duplicate.
I have no idea what to do, so you expert librarians decide.
Thanks.
That profile should be merged with the right one: I have reported it in the right thread (for future reference: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... )
Hi, I just came across the librarian note for this book, it requests that the book be deleted. It explains why in the note.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

What I'm saying is, I personally have some older books that have black and white covers, that are explicitly different because they aren't coloured.
Thanks. Corrected within minutes. Wow

If I am understanding you correctly, publication has been delayed, not cancelled. Correct?
Then we wouldn't delete the book, which removes it from the shelves of all the users who have it marked as to-read. We can correct the publication date, of course, if a new one is known.
I inadvertently seem to have added a book twice. It is called Annie's War Love Amid The Ruins by Robert W. Walker. I looked at the Guide but couldn't find a spot where I could delete the one with less information. Any help would be appreciated. Many thanks!

I've separated the two books of Mark Twain's short stories from 1957 as they appear to be duplicates - not sure which one should stay, and I wouldn't rely on the covers being different. One looks almost like a google cover.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Paris Sıkıntısı'Paris Sıkıntısı' is the Turkish edition of 'Paris Spleen'. There are two books in the same name but because of reviews I can't merge them, I need a super librarian.

I should have been able to delete this dupe, as it only had 4 adds, but I got this message:Sorry, this book is locked. Only super-librarians can delete locked books.
What is that?
Anyways, please delete:

Please delete this edition: Battle Royale
As I can figure from the cover art, this should be the Hungarian edition of the book found here:
Hungarian edition.
Thank you for your help!

Very poor I feel that an Author can not delete his/her own book ; I have an unauthorised Publisher listing/selling one of my books - which because of their lack of support /transparency I have given to a different publisher, but the first one will not take it off !! Neither can I even though its my book, the first publisher has no rights, no contract, but is allowed by goodreads to advertise and sell my book !!!
Please marge this two editions of book Carrie by Stephen King I got error messages that book is locked. Keep one with ISBN Thankshttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
447 If there are legal issues with your book you should contact the staff of Goodreads https://www.goodreads.com/about/conta...448 done
Please merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... with https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (no isbn)
I searched for the book by the second half of title, it wasn't there so I added it. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Then I found it with an incomplete title. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... I think this one should be merged/deleted. It says it's copyright 2007 but I believe that to be wrong. It is on it's first printing which is 2006. From author's own website: http://www.paulina.ws/books/faeriesan...
So in summary it's not a different book but the same book.

447 ; I have tried - I guess the AUTHORISED publisher of my books will just have to start legal action to get anything done. Any ideas/reason why an author who puts up his/her own books on Goodreads is then unable to delete them when conditions change ?The book to be deleted is 'Chasing The dragon' ~ publisher Monsoon books Singapore.
Thanks.
Please merge these titles. They are the same book; I keyed the ASIN as an ISBN the first time. https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
