Dup Kindle edition (ASIN moved to orig/default after edit reverts):www.goodreads.com/book/show/20438058-...
Found with publisher as author. I fixed that and separated equivalent from book listing. I combined those two. Please merge, then recombine.

re 675, i tried my hardest to figure out what you needed merged, and in a couple cases i think i got it. but the hardcover eds totally throw me. has someone else been working on this? anyway, i would suggest reposting your request(s) separately and phrased so even an idiot like me can figure it out. i.e., "merge x(link) and y(link)".
Dear, please delete this:- https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...duplicate of this:- https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Thanks! :)
688 done. the boxed set was merged into the trilogy set, which was the closest thing extant. i didn't want to just delete it, given the number of people who had shelved it.
690-692 done693, they look like totally different editions to me. different covers, languages... why do you want these merged?
694 done
695 done, and no, that isbn is not valid. but a cursory check on google and at the other editions on GR doesn't tell me what the right ISBN should be. if you figure it out, post it here (unless you can fix it yourself, of course)
696, 697 done
698 merged with the boxed set, not into book 1
699 and 700 done, but please, please, please separate the editions you want merged from the rest. that is SUPER important when merging editions of such popular books. i had to really hunt for these two merges.i see 701 and your remaining requests have the same problem. im going cross-eyed on these and am tapping out. maybe someone else has more patience for the rest. :P
Z-squared wrote: "699 and 700 done, but please, please, please separate the editions you want merged from the rest. that is SUPER important when merging editions of such popular books. i had to really hunt for the..."That is REALLY frustrating because I separated all editions for merge requests, except where denoted with "to the main edition." Does your finding that the editions were not separated mean that my separate request failed or that another librarian merged before you saw the records?
Edited to add: It looks like Beth combined the editions before you responded to my requests. How can this be made less confusing for librarians and super-librarians?
Not sure, but just to be on the safe side Barth, before being able to do merges myself, I would put a librarian note on the separated versions saying Separated pending Superlibrarian merge. Please do not recombine onto the BAD edition (so that once it's merged the note vanishes :) Not a perfect solution, but it reduces the chances of accidental "helping"...
yeah, sorry barth. emy's suggestion is really the best. it happens a LOT when trying to delete dupes of really popular books.
702 done703 done, although it's not necessary to separate a book for deletion if it's going to be merged into the main edition anyway.

P.S. As items with less ratings I can also NAB or DELETE. Which is the preferred action for toys and calendars, or should I leave it for yo guys?
Please merge into this The books are 5 but one is split in two parts. Seems the most accurate edition to merge into.
Started on 741. Will come back later. Or someone else can finish.If a non-book has no ratings the easiest way to handle is to mark it not a book using the link on the edit page; just under the 'upload an ebook button. If you delete a book with an isbn number you should manually add it back with its isbn and mark it as not a book otherwise it will reimport.
Stock Market Edges exists in two identical Amazon Kindle Editions. Please delete the duplicate. See below.Keep this:

Hello,
There was a spelling error on an entry for Fired Up for the Author. I have fixed the spelling error, and combined the two MMP editions in prep for Merge, but I cannot delete the the incorrect book as it has 11 reviews instead of 5. Once the deletion occurs, the Paperback edition will need to recombined with the master Edition book.

I need these 2 books of mine, I Surrender and Surrender to Me deleted immediately as the rights have been turned back over to me as my contract with my publishers have ended. They have requested all artwork, reviews etc linked to them be deleted immediately.
I have left a note on my author dashboard and also emailed the librarians, but have heard nothing back.
I will be self publishing these books, so are you able to leave the listing still there, just remove artwork, reviews, ratings and any purchase links as these are now obsolete.
Thank you so much for your time.
This edition has a wrong isbn https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8... and should be merged with the edition with the right data: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...and then combined with the other editions: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
I think this is a valid bundle. Seems those books were printed and sold by doubles: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...Could someone tell me if those should be treated like box sets or should they be merged? Here is some info at wiki.
