'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 see in the change log you have removed two ISBNs, why did you do that? Unless an ISBN is invalid, an ISBN should not be removed from the database. And if there are two valid editions there is no need to merge them.
someone had saved the book the wrong name 'Pazar Sıkıntısı' with this isbn, there were 4 editions two of them 'Pazar sıkıntısı' with isbn but wrong name, and two of them have true name but no isbn. When I try to remove 'pazar sıkıntısı' and change the other's isbn It seems true cover but wrong name. (I don't understand why)
A error in the title doesn't make the edition invalid, as we can make edits. Those valid ISBNs should be listed on Goodreads.
Ok, I understand 'the isbn comes first' :) after that I consider this, but it seems still 2 'Paris Sıkıntısı' Now one of them has the isbn, they are exactly the same they need to be merged.
But do those editions match with the two ISBNs? If so we can add those ISBNs to these two editions. If only one or none matches then those two editions can be merged, but that is what I want know before merging editions.
There is just one ISBN. These books have the same isbn and they are the same.
the problem still goes on :(
