GR does not delete out of print books, if a book is republished under a different name, all editions are listed with original published name in primary position. New name is added as secondary on appropriate editions

Thanks Paula. Yes there is and I just combined it with (Fatima is Fatima). I am a "goodreads librarian" so I can do the combination at least. Thanks again,

#772 the edition you linked to has an isbn. Merged the duplicate edition without an isbn.

Many thanks.

I reverted the changes to the author name on that edition.
From the librarian manual:
"In some cases, a book may be originally published under a pen name, but then later reissued under the author's original name. When this happens, the author listed for any and all editions should be the author name the book was originally published under - so the reissued edition would need its primary author name changed to the originally published pen name, with the additional name added as secondary for all editions with it on the cover. Doing this will allow the various editions to be combined." (https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/4...)

#790 - Left alone. That is not a duplicated that is the ebook edition, and the other edition is the Kindle edition.
#791 -

The two author profiles were separated in November.
Susanne, those books are not on your profile. There is another author with the same name, and those books are on her profile.

For superlibrarians: please delete this edition. It is the same as the other one with less info. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...Only the first one should exist. The 2nd is a faux ASIN. The third one I think I tried to delete but it wouldn't go.
I was referred to this thread by another librarian, who suggested that my issue was larger than I anticipated.All Things Zombie: The Gathering Horde has a bit of a problem, in that the primary version of the book listed on the page is in 'ebook' format. At issue is the fact that it was never released as an 'ebook' independent of the 'Kindle' format, a version which is also available on this listing. I believe the 'ebook' version submitted was in error.
I suggested merging the two such that the 'Kindle' version (which features the correct and only cover) is the primary format, and the librarian replied that this would require the deletion of the 'ebook' version and its many reviews.
If at all possible, I'd like to clear this up while retaining the book's amassed reviews.
Also, All Things Zombie: The Gathering Horde is the first in a series of 'All Things Zombie' anthologies. The series title of (All Things Zombie #_) is reflected foremost on the additional anthologies (A Very Zombie Christmas: An ATZ Christmas Special and All Things Zombie: Chronology of the Apocalypse), but on this one, it is primarily listed as (Outage #5.5), a series which only reflects the contribution of one of the 32 authors. If possible, I'd like to request that All Things Zombie: The Gathering Horde be primarily listed as (All Things Zombie #1) for the sake of clarity.
Thank you for all your help!

#808 Combined the editions. One Greek edition previously had an isbn that was removed. Reverted that change (that isbn is on Amazon).
Duplicates, matching ISBNs, one has ISBN10, one has ISBN13, please merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... and recombine with https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Please merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
into
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Thank you!
(Sorry, it seems I can't combine the editions (for preparation). I just cannot find the separate edition in the combine dialog. Maybe it takes some time to appear after a separation.)
Please, delete this of my account (https://www.goodreads.com/author/list...)is not mine:

please delete: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...the "edition" with the wrong ISBN:9783902844
the correct one has ISBN: 9783902844187
812 - 813 - Moved the book. Yours is the default Laura Morales profile with single space and hence auto-imported books may be attributed to your profile in future. If you notice any such books, please start a topic in this folder and any librarian will move the books. This topic is for merging (=deleting) duplicate editions :)
814 - Merged duplicate. Added Kindle edition from Amazon
