Yep. :)

ETA: The deletion queue is heavily backlogged, so it may be a few days before these books can be recombined..."


Yeah, I knew about the delay, but just couldn't find the queued message, that's why the question :)

Cassandra (cassanj) | 4919 comments Please merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

The ISBN is exclusively for the Kindle edition (which is already here with the appropriate ASIN), and the cover was a placeholder never used anywhere per the author here.


message 704: by Cassandra (new)

Cassandra (cassanj) | 4919 comments Please merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... and recombine. Audiobook listed with ASIN leads to used audio CD copy on Amazon- separated with matching cover


message 705: by Cassandra (new)

Cassandra (cassanj) | 4919 comments Please merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... and recombine. Edition to be merged has truncated ISBN13 for edition to be merged into.

Had to revert a previous cover, so you should probably double check that all's good and proper.

*SOB* ok, I've separated everything AGAIN, and this time left a huge librarian note basically saying "Don't recombine until the merge is ..."


Possibly, we won't know for sure until the backlog is cleared...

Melanie (mvalente89) | 2197 comments #722, the duplicate is still pending a merge (merges are really backed up) as I reported to you here https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

This will be recombined when the deletion goes through.

Please delete this edition. Someone added another kindle edition and there should be only one kindle edition and one paperback and at the moment there are three editions.
Thank you.

A.E. Davis | 1 comments Can you please delete the old covers I have for Forks, Book One and Forks, Book Two. Thank you.

Alex | 2736 comments #697 Queued. Moved better quality cover to edition with ISBN. ISBN is truncated in the remaining edition, but I could not find the complete one. Done. Someone re-combined.

#699 Separated and queued for deletion. Please do not recombine until merge is complete. Also, please do not remove the ISBNs from valid editions. ETA: Can someone get the title of this in Chinese? Done and re-combined.

#701 Is even more complicated than that. The Kindle with ISBN edition was one of those imported with both ASIN and ISBNs in 2012. In 2014 the amazon bot came along and "stole" the ASIN to create what should have been an ACE, the current Kindle with ASIN edition.

What I would do, is move the ASIN to its original location (removing the Kindle-exclusive ISBN), mark the 2014 edition as an ACE and merge. Waiting for confirmation though, before I pull the trigger.

ETA: Post # corrected for 3 deleted posts.

Alex | 2736 comments #702 Queued for deletion. Done.
#703 Queued for deletion. Done, re-combined with Brief an den Vater. In future, please indicate where to re-combine.

#704:
1) Those are not duplicates, they have unique identifiers (ASIN/ISBNs). There was a placeholder that I have queued for deletion done. I have also created your series.
2) Queued for deletion. Done.

#705 Queued for deletion. Done and re-combined. Sorry Krazykiwi, I hadn't noted the ASIN beforehand, but I think I found and NAB-ed it.

#706 I haven't done NABs myself, however, I'm not sure that's a candidate. The publisher describes the DVD set as including the 88-page printed course guidebook. If they are sold under the same ISBN, it shouldn't be NAB'ed.

#707 Not done. Covers are different (the guy has been "shaved" and the small text between them is different). Could be an ARC cover or an ACE?

#708/644 Didn't see anyone claiming to have done this so, queued for deletion. Done.

#709 Queued for deletion. Done, re-combined with The Fortress of Solitude. In future, please indicate where to re-combine.
#713 Queued for deletion. Done, re-combined with The Yiddish Policemen's Union.
#714 Queued for deletion. Done.
#715 Queued for deletion. Done, re-combined with Plötzlich Shakespeare. In future, please indicate where to re-combine.
#716 Queued for deletion. Done, re-combined with this.

ETA: Post corrected for 3 deleted posts.

Ops, sorry, you're right


message 739: by Alex (last edited Mar 07, 2017 03:25PM) (new)

Alex | 2736 comments #717 Had a look at the various cover changes (that was a messy one!) then reverted back to yours (which was also the cover that was originally deleted against policy). Added an ACE for the cover that had been on the record before the bad cover deletion had been noticed. Queued for deletion. Done, and recombined.

#721 Queued for deletion. Done, and recombined with this.

#722 Not done. Reverted ASIN change (ASIN/ISBNs should always remain on first record to get them). Reverted bad cover change and marked as ACE pending explanation of the circumstances.

#724 Queued for deletion. Done.
#726 Queued for deletion. Done, and recombined with this.
#727 Queued for deletion. Done.
#728 Queued for deletion. Done.
#[Deleted post] Queued for deletion. Done.

#729 Not done. I did some research and it turns out this is probably it: http://www.worldcat.org/title/cindere...
We don't seem to have this book on GR (the "and other tales" one is 17 pages longer -- for the other tales presumably), so it stays.

#730 This one also seems to be part of the "Golden Junior Classics" series. I've populated it with some data based on Abebooks, Worldcat and the assumption that the stories in that series were similarly handled.

#731 Queued for deletion. Done and recombined.

#732 Also found an edition with the matching ISBN10 to this one's ISBN13. Different pub. date, however both publisher and worldcat give 2000, so 2010 probably a reprint. Queued for deletion. Done, and recombined with this.

#733 Queued for deletion. Done, and recombined with this.

ETA: Post corrected for 3 deleted posts + deleted post #729

Alex | 2736 comments #751 Moved from your profile. However, this thread is for the deletion of true duplicates. To move books from your profile, please make a new thread, in future.

ETA: Corrected for 4 deleted posts.


message 742: by Julie (new)

Julie Haigh | 24 comments Re 725-This book was never published with this cover-the author changed his mind just before publication so there has only ever been one cover edition-the one on amazon currently. One kindle edition and one paperback. The other kindle edition is a duplication.

This is not a book, it is the short story "El rey burgués" first published in Azul.... It is unidentifiable as a book, and I could not find a book of such name ever published in English.

Re 725-definitely not-I was a beta reader and the advance reader copy was a PDF without a cover.

Alex | 2736 comments #722/750/753/754/756 Sorry about all this and thank you for the clarification. Queued for deletion. Done and re-combined.

Please remember to comment changes that need context to be justified. :)

This is a 2 page short story. I combined it with The Complete Short Stories as I'm certain it is included in this collection. The cover is not a real cover - it was (quite unprofessionally) created from the cover of The Short Stories.

It is an unidentifiable edition. The cover suggests it is is this kindle edition: A Painful Case but I didn't split as I'm not sure this is the right edition to merge with.
