Kraken Up 1.0
Nightfall in a Glass House
0111010101110011
Collected
A Syntax of Memory
Taking the Long Way Home
for clarity's sake, the books that i would like to remain listed are:
How We Began
and
Love Has No Boundaries Anthology: Volume 5
and
When You Were Pixels
which has two editions, both still active (one is free and part of an anthology, and the other is refined and available for purchase already)
thanks for your help,

Not a book, not a collection, it just is for the sake of the whole "Ranma 1/2" franchise. There is no 1-38 volume of ranma 1/2, even Elex Media does not have any type of information about that book.

They are the same book, but the author mistakenly created two of them instead of creating editions. Thanks!
Please delete the book below from my author profile; I am not the author of this book. Thank you! https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
180 done.179: Anne -- do you mean that you want them combined (two separate editions of the same book) or merged (only one edition)?
#179 - Done, Combined not merged, since they are 2 unique editions/formats.

Liralen--I meant combined. So sorry about the confusion! Philip did just that, and it looks perfect now. Thank you both!

It actually is one, just with no data besides author and title. Merged into most popular edition.
This may need a second opinion on whether it should be merged and deleted; I think it probably should be - it's the pre-publication title, was never released under that name although it had an ISBN; edition has been added 20 times, and a couple of the users rated it:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (ISBN-13, wrong cover)Please merge with https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (ISBN-10, correct cover)
and recombine with https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...
Thanks!
Hello!This book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... with ISBN13 9788598443103 doesn't exist, just the other one that it is combined with.
The same with this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
And this one: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Same book, different editions:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
and https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Please merge.

Books have been combined by someone. Not merged, because different editions and covers.

How do you know they're invalid ISBNs? Do they fail the check-digit test? If they do, and you can't find the bogus ISBNs for sale at any legitimate retailer other than the user who submitted them, seems like a reason to merge to me...

The second edition you linked to was a duplicate, and I have merged it. The first and third editions have ISBNs attached, and the third one is on WorldCat. I can't merge the third. Why do you say the first doesn't exist?
Antonomasia wrote: "This may need a second opinion on whether it should be merged and deleted; I think it probably should be - it's the pre-publication title, was never released under that name although it had an ISBN..."Because it has an ISBN, you couldn't just merge it. Whether or not it actually exists, it has a listing on Amazon, etc., so it would just keep getting added to the database. You'd have to also NAB it after you merge it. But I'm in favor of that. Maybe see if anyone else objects, but if not, I'd merge/NAB.
re 188, I don't think we can delete/merge that one. It appears to be an alternate-cover edition of ISBN 9788184003055. Note the omission of the translator's names on the other edition:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
It's possible that the edition I linked to is a duplicate, cropped version of the cover on the most popular edition, but I can't confirm that one way or another. Sorry!

Makes sense to me.
Please delete all editions of this book. It is no longer being released.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Thanks Rivka & Z-squared. Now a super just needs to merge the book record (and NAB the ISBN & title):https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

There is just one edition of every book of this series and I searched in book sellers here and haven't found this ISBN. Also, I looked in the ISBN database of Brazil and haven't found either.
