For editions to be merged with something other than the work default, please remember to separate out the two editions for merging before posting in this thread. [Non-librarians: Please just note in your requests that you are unable to complete this step.]

NOTE: This thread is for requesting the deletion of true duplicates -- two entries for the same edition of a book. If you need help with anything else (e.g.: moving books off an author's page where they have appeared in error, author disambiguation, combining editions, etc.) please start a NEW THREAD in this folder.

Joseph (josephuk) | 259 comments Since the other thread is closed and my request is still pending I'll ask again here:

Please merge: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

ISBN 8501156035 / ISBN-13 9788501156037 belongs to THIS book as you can check on Worldcat HERE.

"O Chefão" doesn't have an ISBN as you can also see on Worldcat HERE.

It's not an alternate cover edition, you can see the two books have different translated titles and are from different publishers.

Arenda | 26448 comments #2 I'm still not comfortable merging them. Someone added that edition with isbn and publisher (not like some details were added later by someone else).

#3-7 done

There's a very popular site in Brazil like GR called "Skoob". However, there, unlike here, you can't organize nor edit the information so easily (for example, no one can merge nor combine editions, and you don't need to be a librarian to add information on the books, so the site is really a mess). Most likely, the person who added the book here on GR just "copied and pasted" the data from there since the book was added here on 2010/10/27 and there was added on 2009/03/04. Plus, is really rare to find a book published in Brazil before 1985 with an ISBN.

Ayshe | 3084 comments https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... - the default has no details


☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments ehm ... isn't that a duplicate with even the same isbn10? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...
Not sure which one of them should be merged - the one with both isbn hasn't the cover and no adds and the one with only one isbn has cover and adds so I leave it to supers :)

Laura W | 1 comments Please could https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... be deleted?

This edition was never actually published (it was published under a different ISBN and title which are already listed on site).

message 32: by Peter (new)

Peter | 1 comments Greetings! I just became a Goodreads author, but would like to have two books deleted. The author those has the same name, so it looks like they were auto-merged!

There two should be removed from my page:
Chaz and the Summer Barbecue: ASINB00B83UAHQ
The Bad Pizza Out ThereL ASINB00BBWGZN2

Thanks so much,
Peter McDade

Sammm | 88 comments Temporary work id# 56763173

There is as of now, supposedly only ONE French paperback edition for this book (according to publisher's official website: www.editions-jclattes.fr/kings-cage-9...), meaning every edition in this batch needs to be merged as a single edition.

ISBN is located at this edition King's Cage Red Queen - Tome 3 by Victoria Aveyard , whereas this edition King's Cage (Red Queen, #3) by Victoria Aveyard was created first and is shelved the most (also has a cover uploaded). I guess it's up to super-librarians which URL to keep in the end.

Thanks!

Natalie Bestenbreur | 5 comments I added my first book but before I had published and now I have published it, it has come up again.
Can someone delete the one I put up it has no real details on it.

Www.goodreads.com/book/show/35123318-...

So it's fool's gold (A William's Creek series #1) that I would like to be removed Thankyou

rachel, x (typedtruths) | 1368 comments https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

This book has three different paperback editions. I think that the ISBN has incorrectly been copied across two alternate cover editions? The second (blank) one can definitely be deleted. I would try and edit the others two but I think ISBN issues like this should probably be left to the superlibrarians.


message 45: by Codex (new)

Codex | 3400 comments Please merge this edition (no ASIN):
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
into this edition:

message 46: by Empress (last edited Jun 11, 2017 07:28AM) (new)

Empress (the_empress) Please merge the most popular edition into the second edition.
https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

Please recombine with the The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy as it contains all 5 books & the short story. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

EDIT: Really funny story. For some reason I'm not seeing any of the changes I am reverting in the log. I have posted in the feedback group about it. I did find them in the librarian log so PM me if unsure about the changes I've made, however in short - Librarian had added the same edition and then changed the original edition to ACE. I have reverted that and created an ACE edition.

I was advised in such cases to contact GR directly. You can email them at support @ goodreads . com
