https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... (has ASIN)

Looks like author added first link but did not add ASIN after publication which led to auto-import adding the second link. Should the ASIN be transferred or should the no-ASIN version deleted? Didn't separate as it's the default edition.

Someone has moved the book from your profile.
Please start a new thread next time, as any librarian can move a book from an author profile, no superlibrarian needed.

Combined the Kindle and paperback editions. No deleting.
Please start a new thread next time, or use a combine thread that is not linked to a specific book.
This thread is for deleting duplicate editions.

The identical book. Carefully look the ISBN, actually, it is ISBN13 except last three digits.

Anne Chaconas (annechaconas) | 15 comments Not sure if these need to be merged with the existing editions of these books or deleted:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

All four of the books have existing GR pages with a ton of reviews, editions, covers, etc--these four new pages have next to nothing or nothing. If they can be deleted, please delete. :)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #374 - I do not see any other editions of those books Author names were screwed up, so combining.

Also they all have unique ISBNs, so they would stay. I added the covers that Amazon had listed for those books.

A great deal of messiness to these books that will need straightened out.

lethe | 16359 comments #382-383 The reader who added the book is currently reading My Kitchen Year, so it's plausible.

Lesli (lesmel) | 58 comments #383-384 My Kitchen Year is post Gourmet; and not while Reichl was active at Gourmet. Thus, my confusion.


message 378: by Z-squared (new)

Z-squared | 8575 comments then it is probably a WIP she announced in an interview or blogpost or something. my guess it should just be deleted.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1.... The self-published book on Goodreads is no longer available because it has been replaced with a new version with new cover, new book blurb, ISBNs and new publisher and is now available in both paperback and electronic versions. Thank you.

After the editions are combined, you will have the ability to change which edition of the book is the default, which will come up in searches by title and show on your author profile. Here's how: https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/3...

message 394: by Judith (last edited Feb 03, 2016 08:45AM) (new)

Judith Works | 8 comments I'm trying to get the new edition of Coins in the Fountain on Goodreads but I keep getting a message that the ISBN is already taken by a book called Little Girl Mended. I have my paperback and the ISBN I've entered is on the inside cover. It shows as
978-5137-0699-3 so there must be some sort of an error. Can you help please. I looked on Amazon by this ISBN and Coins comes up so it must be correct. Thanks


message 395: by Philip (new)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #393 - Please do not modify book data before posting here, it requires us to do more work.

Did not delete/merge because the covers were different. Marked as an ACE and recombined.


message 396: by Philip (new)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #398 - Going to leave to somebody else due to the language, but from a cursory look there are definitely 2 editions there. the covers of 2 of them are different. 1 black one red, and the borders around the main part a different, so it is not just that one was photocopied in B&W.


message 397: by Philip (new)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #399 - Due to language not sure which edition it needs merged with. Usually even if it was a mistake, we merge with the other edition not just delete.

lethe | 16359 comments #399, 405
I have combined it with the correct edition: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

ETA It doesn't belong in this thread because there are no ratings, but we can't merge at the moment anyway.
