#2 has been reset back to being the primary (and should stay that way, and should NOT have its cover or any data changed, unless the correct ISBN is known).
editions 1, 3, and 4 should be correct now. let's see how long they stay that way!
Thanks rivka and Z-squared! In that case, should editions 2 and 3 be merged (a super would need to do it)? They are both listed as UK Hardcover and only one has ISBN...

OK, but we still have this edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... with no ISBN floating around...

I tried commenting on this over at the deletions thread but I think people might be reluctant to get their hands on this one as it's a bit confusing and most editions have been modified several times over... As it's the most popular book this month, it does seem important that it's straightened out so I'll attempt to sum up the editions here:
*There are 4 main published paper editions: US Hardcover, UK Hardcover and two versions paperback with UK cover.
There are editions listed on Goodreads:
*Primary edition https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... with the US cover image but the UK paperback ISBN
*#2. This used to be just listed as "UK hardcover", but recently someone added the 2nd UK paperback ISBN.

*#3 UK hardcover ISBN with US cover image https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
*#4 US hardcover (this one seems OK) https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
There's a message from an admin on one of the editions mentioning that the primary edition should remain the UK edition, but someone has already changed the cover for that one... I do think that the UK ISBN shouldn't have been added to the primary edition, but I think it might be too late to do something about that? In any case, any help is appreciated. Thanks!
