Okee doke! Have separate that one out with the other dups and recombined the other with the original.

Please merge (or fix?): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

The ISBN is split over two editions, both of which have questionable covers. The ISBN13'd version looks to have sourced it from here:
https://www.gallimardmontreal.com/cat...
And the ISBN10'd version looks to have half a cover.
For reference, Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/twilight-%C3%A...

Stupid flip books.

The other editions should be merged because they are only one of the two works included in the volume.

Please recombine with https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Alex | 2736 comments #146 Working on this... There were a couple of bad cover changes, which I reverted and adapted the duplicate into an ACE. I then found an ACE using the original cover and queued for deletion. Done and re-combined.

I would like a second opinion on these two covers though: Plain White VS Shiny - are these different covers, or is this just because of the way the pictures were taken?

#149 Separated from the Kindle and combined with the paperback as the pub. dates match precisely. Queued for deletion. Done and re-combined.

#150 Queued for deletion. Done and re-combined.
#151
1) Queued for deletion. Done.
2) How do you know this is not available in other ebook formats?
#152 Queued for deletion. Done.

#153 Daniel, if these are books that you have never published and will never publish, please use the Contact Us form to have them removed, as advised here: https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/2...

#154 Fixed truncated ISBN from publisher listing. Queued for deletion. Done and re-combined.
#155 Queued for deletion. Done and re-combined.
#156 Queued for deletion. Done.
#157 Queued for deletion. Done.
#158 Ended up undoing another bad cover change and creating an ACE for the English edition you were asking me to merge into. *sigh*
No problems with your request. Queued for deletion. Done and re-combined.
#159 Queued for deletion. Done and re-combined.
#160 Queued for deletion. Done and re-combined.
#161 Skipped. Too weird, can't figure out what to do. Leaving for a more experienced librarian.
#162 Queued for deletion. Done waiting on #170 to re-combine. Re-combined with different target, #170 resistant to deletion.
#163 Queued for deletion. Done waiting on #170 to re-combine. Re-combined with different target, #170 resistant to deletion.

It seems it's only available on Amazon, no other ebook store online has it. Also the Amazon page lists "Amazon" as publisher

Moloch | 3975 comments re 44/65

the first merge went through. So now there are 2 duplicates left, I have combined all together with the correct ISBN-less edition.

Now please delete
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

then re-combine with https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

Those are different. Indeed what you are indicating in the links (one all white letters, the other some letters are shiny.)

Alex | 2736 comments #151.2/164/165 I don't know if that's sufficient as proof of the non-existence of other ebook editions. Leaving for a more experienced librarian.

To be merged: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... (same cover, and worldcat's page # count for the life and death half is pretty close)

Please recombine with https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2....

Oh shoot. All the prior merge requests where I asked to have them recombined back with the one I'm requesting to be merged here, should I edit those posts?

A duplicate of
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Note that it was waiting on another book deletion to go through the queue, now that it is done the second one can be deleted.

Lisa (seabelis) | 580 comments I think this one may have been skipped.

Stray edition, has never had correct author. To merge into default (which is at least a paperback with the same cover other than a slight colour cast from the scan)

(Book Mr. Lucky)
Already queued (in the old thread) no need to repost.
Update: done.

Alex | 2736 comments #170 No worries, I'm doing this now, so re-combining will not change target. Queued for deletion.

Please delete

duplicate of

It can then be recombined with

Short explanation: I added a cropped cover from Amazon to the latter and corrected title etc. to be in Hebrew per cover. I then realized we already had the exact same cover without ISBN. I'd personally go with the cover of the former and the ISBN of the latter.


message 185: by Moloch (new)

Moloch | 3975 comments Queue has *maybe* skipped this one too

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

another duplicate that was combined together got deleted

re-combine with https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

thanks


message 186: by Arenda (new)

Arenda | 26448 comments #194 I have already requeued this edition


message 187: by David (new)

David Raz (davidraz) | 12746 comments Please delete:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (ASIN in ISBN field)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (Kindle with ISBN, can't be found anywhere else)

Both are duplicates of
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

And then combine with
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

David Raz (davidraz) | 12746 comments Not 100% certain of this one but
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Seems like a duplicate of
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

The publication date and page count are different but usually that does not merit another edition

Alex | 2736 comments #171 Queued for deletion. Done.
#172 Skipped.
#173 Queued for deletion. Done.
#174 Not Done. Covers are different, noted as ACE.
#175 Queued for deletion. Done.
#176 Queued for deletion. Done.
#177 Queued for deletion. Done.
#178 Queued for deletion. Done.
#179 Queued for deletion. Done.
#180 Queued for deletion. Done.
#181 Queued for deletion. Done.
#182 Queued for deletion. Done.

#184/Previous thread's #894 Sorry about that, I had mistakenly thought someone else had done this, but I had been looking at a different request. Then, I promptly forgot to mention this.

There had been a bad cover change even before the one you reverted. Entirely coincidentally, the newest cover was the same as the original (which was broken). Re-uploaded to make the change explicit, noted the other as an ACE and re-combined.

#185 Queued for deletion. Done.
#187 Merged misspelled "J.K.Rowling", separated target, combined, and queued 2 duplicates for deletion. Done and re-combined.

# 189, 190, 191 Skipped I'd suggest PM-ing whoever originally queued the record, in case they have already re-queued it.

#192 Better quality cover moved to ISBN edition. Queued for deletion. Done and re-combined.
#193 ISBNs moved back to record that originally had them. Moved cover to edition with ISBN, populated with data from duplicate and abebooks. Queued for deletion. Done.
#196 Re-combined.
#197 That edition was re-published under a new ASIN. I have found the original ASIN, but not from a source that we can use... Still, it is an ASIN...........

rachel, x (typedtruths) | 1368 comments I checked all my previous requests and they've all gone through apart from this merge: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

Not sure if it got skipped or still queued.

message 200: by Alex (last edited Mar 08, 2017 06:05PM) (new)

Alex | 2736 comments #203 Not done. The cover is different (see under author's name) from the paperback and Kindle (though same with no-info audiobook). There are ARC reviews on this edition, so... ARC?

#204 Queued for deletion. Done.
#205 Not done. Covers definitely different when looked at side by side (stars in different places, text shifted). ARC? ACE? Unused?
#206 Queued for deletion. Done.
#207 Queued for deletion. Done.
#208 Queued for deletion. Done.
