561 Moved, but in the future please start a new thread for this kind of request, since this one is for deleting books, not for moving books to a different profile.

Amy (Other Amy) | 26 comments It seems that The Princess and the Guard was going to be published separately, but that was nixed and the story has only ever been published in Stars Above. I believe this needs a merge.

Stephanie (steviee) | 9 comments I was looking at the books on my author page Stephanie Ellis and trying to pull in a book to which I am a contributor, however when I entered the title and was scrolling through the drop-down list, I hit return at the wrong point. My list now shows Flashdogs: Time with no information and does not reflect the real book Flashdogs: Time (Volume 3) ASIN:B01AMKHED8. Could this erroneous version be deleted or is there a way of getting the real one to overwrite it? Apologies if this is the wrong thread.

I can't figure out what you mean. THere are two editons of that book, one kindle w/ ASIN B01AMKHED8, the other a paperback w/ ISBN 9781523357901. Both appear valid.

https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

While it's true that the author/contributor list for the pb edition is incomplete, neither appears 'erroneous'. Did you mean some other edition not linked above? Please include a URL to the edition in question.

Z-squared | 8575 comments re 568, both editions are already combined. the ISBNs look valid. can you be more specific?


message 560: by Krazykiwi (new)

Krazykiwi | 1767 comments https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... is an isbn'less dupe of
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

(At least I am as certain as I can be it is. Anchor is an imprint of Knopf Doubleday, the covers match, there is no ebook version with 1200 pages from Anchor in 2008 listed anywhere I can find, and there is already an Anchor Kindle edition with matching date, so it's not that one.)

To recombine with
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

My bad. There's a big mistake on Amazon France for this book.
Don't change anything.

Sorry, got mixed up. Now noted.

Antonomasia | 514 comments Would like to merge this:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
into https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Thanks.

(In case they get recombined by someone else before the merge is done - for some reason the latter edition didn't appear on the separate page for the work, and I had to separate it singly using the combine page.)

message 573: by Linus (new)

Linus | 6 comments https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... is not a book but just on of many short stories in an edition of "Noveller för världens barn". Hence it should probably be removed since the actual book is also available on goodreads.


message 574: by Z-squared (new)

Z-squared | 8575 comments re 585, which edition of Noveller för världens barn does this story come from? i need to merge the short story with it, but i can't figure out which one is the correct book.

Hello there are two editions of this book that are exactly the same, if you could please eliminate the one that doesn't have the isbn number thanks : https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

It is not a work in itself but just 2 pages out of the work https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... so should probably be merged into it

Roy Khadra | 3 comments Due to the duplication, please delete this book:

"Despre Neajunsul De A Te Fi Nascut" for "Emil Cioran"
Thanks in advance.

Got 587-592.

594 - Both editions have unique ISBNs, no duplicate.

Noel Coughlan (noel_coughlan) | 12 comments Hi

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... is a duplicate of https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2....
I believe it due to the fact that one uses the ASIN and the other uses the ISBN. Can the first one be deleted or merged with the second?

Thanks,

Noel

596 - Hi Noel!
It isn't a duplicate but a different edition. The one with ASIN is a Kindle edition and the other one is an eBook edition.


message 586: by Gaia (new)

Gaia | 125 comments #596
Hi Noel, they're not duplicates. Both are valid editions. The one with ASIN is the Kindle edition, the one with ISBN is an ebook edition* even if it was listed also as Kindle (now corrected). Thus, they're been combined (not deleted/merged). FYI, any librarian can combine.

(*) the ISBN was used on the Giveaway http://booklikes.com/giveaways/show/2...

Thanks for your help.

Gaia | 125 comments Athena wrote: "The one with ASIN is a Kindle edition and the other one is an eBook edition"

Yes, I switched the format to ebook once I saw the giveaway prior to combine them, they were both listed as Kindle (one with ASIN and the other with ISBN)

this book was self-published. Now the author is redoing it and doesn't want it to link back to this book.


message 597: by Renske (new)

Renske | 12222 comments 608 Why? It is a valid edition.
