default edition has no detailshttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/35875322-sospesa
the cover has too much white borders on the sides, but it's the same
I accidentally added an edition that existed already (with a slightly different title, but the right cover and ISBN).please delete this one:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... (Gil Scott-Heron, Cannongate, 2017).
The existing/right one is this one:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... (don't delete)
The existing one has an expected publication date in September this year, but I purchased mine on August 18th, 2017 in Olso, Norway (English version). It has a distinct new cover, so I'm sure it is the same as in the second link. I can't find a more specific date in the book than 2017.
Thanks in advance,
Is it possible to link contributors to anthologies without the editors manually adding them? My work was featured in this one, for example, but the editor isn't interested in being on social media right now, so he declined to add any deets: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...
#8 yes, every librarian can add contributorsyou can just open a new thread in the "book issues" folder and link to the books and mention the names you want to have added (in case you don't want just your name added)

These two books are the same:this one has a cover photo but a wrong ISBN13 (9789774887521)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
and this one does not have a cover photo, but it has the correct ISBN13 (9789774487521)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
the difference between the two ISBNs is one wrong digit
please merge

Thank you!
Please merge: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...There is no 1997 edition. I looked up many sites including worldcat, Turkish libraries, publisher's site etc. Book's first translation into Turkish is definitely in 2005.

Please merge this duplicate:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
It doesn't have an ISBN since it was published as a special edition for a newspaper.
The covers have slightly different colors because one was scanned, while the other is an image taken from the publisher's internet page.

Could a super librarian please delete all editions of this book except for the one called Sugar, Spice, and Everything Catastrophic by Melissa M. Futrell? I have no idea who Testy Mctesterson is, but whoever that is has stolen this book without permission. I literally had to go back and make changes, but due to the fact that I am not a super librarian, I cannot delete the other editions of this book. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Explanation: this edition had an invalid ISBN and a wrong cover. the edition lists release date 1973.
The ISBN was 0345248228150 which is ISBN 0345248228 (from the 1976 edition) and then the price of that edition 1.50$
The cover has the words "The brilliant classic novel by the author of the Lord Valentine's Castle". Well, Lord Valentine's Castle was first published in 1980 so it does not belong on book released in 1973.
This cover is in fact from the 1980 edition.
So this edition can be either the 1973 edition (per details) the 1976 edition (per botched ISBN) or the 1980 edition (per cover). I chose the first, but if you disagree it can be merged with one of the others, which I listed.
according to Ellie this is a duplicate https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... needs to be recombined with https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... then
(and the "to find it better" merge removed, leave it for now in case it helps you finding it)

Would you please help me removing this book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...I believe the edition was added by mistake.
Thank you,

Please merge: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...The covers look slightly different because the edition with more reviews is using a picture of the “art cover”, like a placeholder cover. As one can see on Amazon here this paperback edition doesn't have black lines on the borders.
En attendant Godot has only three editions (if we don't count digital editions) by this publisher (Cosac & Naify) in Brazil:
- Two hardcovers:
Esperando Godot;
Esperando Godot.
- One paperback:
Esperando Godot.

#28 the cover was incorrect (it was the same as this one https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... you can see it's from another publisher - Mondadori - so clearly wrong).I guess who uploaded it just picked the first cover they could find

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... this is not a book, it's a Ted talk. You can see it says " transcript six pages"
