message 309: by David (new)

David Raz (davidraz) | 12746 comments This is a triple deletion:

Please delete
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
An unidentified paperback which can be merged with the identified paperback
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

This unidentified edition
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Has the same cover and thus can be merged with
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

The result of the two above merges can then be merged with
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Finally, this unidentified edition:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Can be merged with the most popular edition

#312 QQueued for deletion. Done.

#313 Not done. Those are entirely different books. One is the 2010 paperback Guinness World Records Gamer's Edition, the other is the 2011 hardcover. I reverted the ISBN transfer (Reminder: ISBN/ASIN should never be moved, the record should be corrected instead), separated, found and combined each with their appropriate works.

#314 Covers had been different, however I reverted a bad cover change, making them the same, and created an ACE, ordered authors according to cover. then queued for deletion. Done.

#315 Queued for deletion. Done.
#316 Queued for deletion. Done and re-combined.
#317 Queued for deletion. Done. Reminder: Publisher should only be set as primary author if there are no others known.

I don't understand. There is only one Macmillan Audio Edition of this book and it's the one with 9781427272911. The other edition's ISBN has just two different numbers, it's clearly just a typo.

It was just due to caching; gone now.

It is not a typo. ISBN: #9781427272928 is offered through Recorded Books, an independent publisher of unabridged audiobooks. It is a valid edition. https://www.recordedbooks.com/title-d...

David Raz (davidraz) | 12746 comments On these editions there has been a lot of cover uploading and reverting, but in the end, these seem like duplicates to me:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

The orange blob on the right seems like a leftover from a crop of an old "look inside"

ISBN'less copy of the paperback (created by amazon_kcw, go figure), to merge into default.

Alex | 2736 comments #357 Agreed, queued for deletion. Done. Also created an ACE.
#358 Not done. Covers are different (see "Exclusive Poster Inside" in green in lower left). Didn't match any of the others either.
#359 How weird? Queued for deletion. Done.

Hi! There are 2 other Spanish Illustrated Editions with ISBNs, but since the dupes didn't have more info for us to deduct just exactly which edition they are dupes of, I simply picked the Spanish edition that was shelved the most for the 2 dupes to be merged with. Please merge the ones without any info to the one that has. Thanks!

Marissa | 6 comments Hello, could someone please take a look at these 3 editions of the same book. I am fairly certain they are the same.
The first one had most the info populated by amazon so (probably) correct. The ASIN listed in the second one does not appear to be correct. The third doesn't have a format listed (I think it is kindle edition as well) and the only other differences are page numbers vary between two and varying amounts of information on publishing date is listed.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/25501284-the-amber-spyglass

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/25501298-the-amber-spyglass

If someone could check on these please?
