Czech edition is just one.

#5 one
Also, please leave a change comment when adding a better quality cover.

Could you please merge the two editions of the book below so that it has the cover and ASIN?

Thanks!

I combined two copies and now need to delete the one with less info:
good edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
duplicate: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... (needs to be deleted).
Thanks

#13 Not done. Ebook and Kindle are considered different editions on Goodreads. Will your book be only available on Amazon? If so, we can merge the ebook edition.
(I have added the cover from Amazon to the Kindle edition.)

Done, can you provide an ISBN for the Kobo edition - got it from Smashwords

This stray edition is marked as an ACE, but I can see absolutely no difference in the covers.

ETA: Re-combined and added ACE notes.

Aha! I looked and looked, and now it stares me in the face...thank you! ;)

#30 not done, edition with isbn has no cover. Merging the duplicates would remove the covers.
Update #30/32/34/35: replaced the cover from Abebooks with the better quality from the duplicate edition. Both duplicates done, and recombined

For my own edification, why would the covers not be moved to the ISBN'd edition? They look to be higher quality versions of this: https://www.abebooks.com/products/isb...
Also, if the dups weren't merged into the ISBN'd version, shouldn't they at least be merged into each other?
So much to learn!

Also, there's something weird going on with those covers that I don't quite understand.

You are the one requesting the merge. I can't verify if that cover and isbn belong together. I can search of course, but that is off topic for this thread.
If you verify cover and isbn belong together, why don't you add a cover to the isbn edition?
ETA: or add the lesser quality cover and let the super decide if they are the same cover and asking if the better quality cover can be kept.
Only reviews, ratings and shelvings will transfer when merging books. All other data that might be on the duplicate and not on the valid edition (like page count, publisher, pub. date, translator) will have to be manually added to the valid edition.

Gotcha, that makes sense. My apologies. I've done that (added the lesser quality cover), but I'm seeing broken images all over goodreads, including the added cover.

Same user added it a second time:

Please note that the author name is also misspelled.

Should be deleted as it's comprised in this volume: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
On the other hand, this whole collection is made up of single issues: https://www.goodreads.com/series/8174...

can you please delete this boxed set: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
It was created automatically by Smashwords, but it contains no new material, it's just a bundle of 3 existing books.
Thank you. :)

It is for sale as a set, so it stays.
