Renske wrote: "3 That is a valid ISBN, combined with the other editions."#3 Why can't it be merged with the original that was set up by the author? I haven't run across one (until now) that all the different combinations couldn't be merged regardless of the ISBN. Asking for clarification.
9, it is a valid ISBNit has been combined, (last one on the list) https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

Also, I can't get the correct author tagged on this book. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
It should be the legitimate Heidi McLaughlin, but I can't get her name to say Goodreads author beside it even when I copy and paste. Thanks!
Got 18. Although I just combined - not merged.
this is my book, didn't see when adding it that there was a place to upload cover photo, how can I edit this or get the photo to you to add?https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
#20 No worries, Philip. I've added it for you :)
To me the following two books look like being the same issue, but they have too many reviews to be deleted. Could a super-librarian please check, if my assumption is correct and if so, take the necessary steps?https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
22 That was indeed a duplicate. I merged it.If you are making such requests, please do the necessary separating of the edition, separate the two editions involved from the others, so the reviews will be transferred to the right edition.
And notes with requests as you added to the duplicate are not useful, as notes are only seen when someone is looking at that page.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...Dup kindle edition, the remaining one can be merged after into https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (and there's about a million things wrong with both those listings, but I'll get around to that when the dup is gone)
Please delete this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...as it is a duplicate of this one:

This should be merged/deleted:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
The cover is fan art that the artist did for a sci-fi class and not an actual cover.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... (no isbn, no ACE note) I separated out a similar edition & combined with that. Please recombine with default version when done
This: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...needs merging into this: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
Which needs to be recombined with these:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...
should be merged and then recombined with the original. Pretty sure Bloomsbury only put out one edition in 2003, so any difference in the cover is due to rendering).

Also, is it ok to post these in batches like this, or would you prefer a post per, for the post numbering?

Hi, Librarians,Re 17328184-inceptio
I have republished the ebook which now has a different ASIN from the old version. The new ASIN is B00K5OO4QW.
I have created a new edition and combined editions so the reviews appear under the new edition as well as the old one.
But the old version with old ASIN i.e. Inceptio (Roma Nova, #1)
Published February 27th 2013 by SilverWood Books
Author(s): Alison Morton (Goodreads Author)
ASIN: B00BMU5OW6 is no longer valid.
I am worried that I may lose all the wonderful reviews and ratings I have built up if the version with the old ASIN is deleted.
Please advise me what to do!
Many thanks in advance
Alison

Alison, you're not supposed to delete old versions even if they are no longer published. Per GR policy, all editions stay in the database. What you can do instead is just select the newer version to be the primary edition so when people search for your book the current version is the one they'll see.
How to set the default edition.

36-42 all done.

Speaking solely for my personal preference, I think it's less confusing if unrelated books are in separate posts. But I only deal with a small fraction of posts in this thread.
Oh, thank you, Cam. I have set the new one as the primary edition, so that's fine. Thank you for your help. I will do the same for my second book.Alison wrote: "Hi, Librarians,

Hi Librarians,Please merge the following entries for Doctor Zhivago.These are practically identical editions, with the same ISBN number.
I think the first one has more information in the description and should therefore be kept. The other two duplicates should be deleted.
