Please delete this book! (pt. 23) [Anyone requests; leave deletions for superlibrarians]

#518 done. I moved it to Dana E. King's profile

Got 507.

For some reason, a duplicate entry for one of our books (I am with the publisher) has been created, listing us (Booktrope) as the author. I can't combine the editions as they do not show together not being attributed to the same author (I am a librarian but not a super-librarian).
ASIN is showing as: B00F8KMR8A
Link is:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
The actual correct listing is (author is T.M. Frazier) but we don't really care if the other listing is just deleted instead of merging them (there is only one review and a few ratings that would be lost): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
I would appreciate some help! Also, if anyone knows where this is being pulled from, I would appreciate that info. I can always look to have it adjusted if it is with one of our vendors. Thanks!

Not when it's possible to restore their ASINs from the log, which I have done.

Looks like one is the Audible edition (ASIN) and one is not (ISBN). Nothing to delete.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (has ISBN-10)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4... (has both ISBNs)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (no ISBN but is the same edition)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (no ISBN but is the same edition)

Goodreads policy is to not delete old editions because people might want their shelves to show the edition they have, instead of the most recent edition.

Please combine these two editions:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure if this is the link to the original or duplicate because they are identical. Aquila: From The Darkness Please don't delete the original (reviews are hard to get)

RE: 541 I combined them. It looks like you have four editions. If you want to set a particular one as a default see #539 above
There is a paperback (w/isbn), 2 ebooks (w/ diff isbns) and a kindle edition (w/ asin). Which 2 of those are duplicates? Perhaps now you can select the 2 and copy and paste the urls in a new post.

Thank you. I have managed to set my preferred default. The duplicate is the kindle edition with asin. It is identical to the ebook with the same cover, however simply combining them worked. Thanks x

Reason for this is because, after the release of my full novel, I've taken down the separate parts from Amazon, and so this page is no longer needed nor wanted.
Re 545: That makes it out of print, and Goodreads does not delete out-of-print books. Please see http://www.goodreads.com/help/show/22... and http://www.goodreads.com/help/show/32...

It is a variant of:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...
but without ISBN or any other edition information.
Thanks!

Opinions?

I believe those two are the same edition as I tried to add the isbn-10 on the second one and it said it already existed and when I checked I found the first one, which in turn doesn't have an isbn-13. Ran it through the isbn converter which spat out the same numbers and double checked on amazon. The only thing that's different is the page numbers, I think.

The ASIN (B0015L5DHI) does not match any Hapgood translation currently in-print, nor does it match any book for that matter. The amazon link is dead and the book can't be found anywhere else either. The cover and description is actually for the Fahnestock & MacAfee translation, which is already in our database.

The ASIN belongs to an edition that is out-of-print (see Google's cache), but we don't delete out-of-print editions.

I messed up ISBN 10 and ISBN 13 and ended up adding the same book twice. Please delete this one (wrong ISBN in wrong place): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Thanks.
