Accidentally duplicated a book - I have a new book being released in June. Went to add it to my page, didn't realize publisher already did so. Now there's two listings - one with an ISBN - the publisher's listing, and one without an ISBN - mine by mistake. How do I remove it?
#15 Next time please provide the title of the book, or add a link to the book. Assuming you are speaking of "Oddities and Endings", I've merged it.
Please delete the duplicate of
and recombine with the paperback.Thank you very much :-)

Please merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... and recombine. Edition to be merged has truncated ISBN13 of the other edition.

#22 - Not sure what to re-combine with, because the only other book called glass is a short story, and this one was a full novel.
#23 - Going to leave alone. Reverted one of many bad cover changes on the default edition. Covers no longer match.

Ugh, that was a mistake on my part, I think I get so used to writing recombine...this title had only 1 edition. Sorry!

Please merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9... and recombineEDIT: In looking at the edition to be merged with, the ISBN13 doesn't seems to be invalid and doesn't match the ISBN10; it looks like this editionhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5... originally had the correct ISBN, but it was deleted? I had reverted the ISBN change, but then reverted it back when I realized it matched the ISBN10 for the other one. Not sure what to do with these.
Please merge (one using 10 digit and one using 13 digit ISBNs for same edition):https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
I think I've done this correctly as per Rivka's message 1 but let me know if I haven't. Thanks
Please merge this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
into this book:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Thanks.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...has incorrect ISBN, check digit should be 6; should be merged into:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
First book has better image.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...Has ISBN 13 but when you edit, switches to ISBN 10 in ASIN slot. I'm guessing a merge is involved.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...ISBN 10 for boxset corresponds to ISBN 13 of single volume:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
#29 I am unsure about the covers being identical. Color and shadow of title and author are different, seems to be more than the effect of scanning.About the isbn change/removal: in 2010 someone removed the isbn from one edition, and created a new edition with the other cover and the same isbn, instead of creating an alternate cover edition.
I am hesitant to revert those changes since they were made so long ago; if someone else wants to revert them, feel free.
#30 The covers are not identical (one has a quote). I've moved the isbn13 to the isbn10 edition that was first on GR, and marked the other as alternate cover edition.#31
#32
#33
#34
#35 Different formats (ebook and paperback). Added a better resolution cover to the ebook edition.
#36 Moved the isbn10 from the asin field to the isbn10 field (and re-added the isbn13 that disappeared when correcting). No merge needed.
#37 The isbn belongs to the boxset edition (source: Amazon and Worldcat). Moved isbn13 to the boxset. That makes the Scholastic edition of book 2 a duplicate,
#38 done
Hopefully I'm posting in the right spot. There are books added to my author page that I didn't write. Same name, but not me and I don't want to take credit for someone else's books. Fight Song is my only currently listed books, and the other books noted. La Secretair, Aviar: Prophecies and Aviar: Shadows of Destiny do not belong to me.
Please merge1. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... with default
2. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... and recombine
3. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... and recombine
#3 ASIN with no format, leads to used copy on Amazon. Separated with specified HC format and cover shown for used copy on Amazon.
Hi, please delete this https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...This was posted under R L Stine instead of R.L. Stine (the official author page). I can't just transfer it since no other details like isbn were provided, so it's most likely a duplicate of https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... Thanks!

I suspected it might be. The cover matched with both existing editions, and the truncated isbn also matched with both. That's why I didn't waste time to check the publisher/imprint.

(FYI: corrected the author and combined the book. Necessary to keep the ratings/reviews/shelvings when merging the book.)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... (correct ISBN-13)https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... (truncated ISBN-13, but has cover)
After merging, please recombine with https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Thanks!
