Liz | 18 comments I think there's a typo in the ISBN of this edition
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
and that it's a duplicate of this edition
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... ...

Could someone look into it please?

Thanks Micheal [#208]
I don't know how I missed the UK edition, sorry :(

Please do not move data between editions prior to requesting a merge, leave the editions as you find them, document any "issues" in your request to merge

Just checking: if I merge the placeholder into Kindle edition, it would not impact the giveaway for the paperback edition, right?


message 218: by Jenny (new)

Jenny Jaeckel | 7 comments I mistakenly entered my book with the wrong ISBN, then the correct edition showed up when it appeared on Amazon. So, this is a flawed duplicate. Thanks for help removing:
the waking star- 9781203149

the correct version is 9781941203149
thank you!

We avoid doing merges on works with current giveaways in progress. While most of the time they go through without a problem, occasionally it causes an issue.

Thanks, Rivka. We'll revisit #215 three weeks later then :-)

The book was a Kindle ebook. Not a print book. I would like to remove it from my author profile please.

Thanks a lot

This rule also pertains to ebooks.

Antara Mann | 19 comments Hi, I'd ask you to delete these two books, please: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Thanks!


message 235: by Emy (last edited Jul 22, 2016 02:05AM) (new)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments #239 - both are valid editions. However they are now correctly combined and the Kindle Edition given the correct format.

#240 - this edition was published at a different (earlier) time from the other edition it is combined with. No merge, unless you are indicating that the 2002 edition is invalid? As I can see it, the same ISBN was used for both the first and second editions of this work.

I don't even know what this is. Sword & Elfstones of Shannara by Charles Dickens?? But description says it is a video.

Please start a new thread next time. Every librarian can move book to another author profile.

Codex | 3400 comments Please merge:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...
(ISBN not found anywhere, even by Barnes & Noble, who added it)
with:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...
which appears to be the same book (identical publication details).

Books separated (and combined separately).

Arenda | 26447 comments #252 That an isbn can't be found anywhere online, is not a reason to delete a book.

In principle, I agree. But even the originator of the ISBN (Barnes & Noble) can’t find the ISBN. So what basis exists for its alleged association with an actual publication? [Not arguing: trying to understand. :-)]
