Please delete this book! (pt. 46) [Anyone requests; leave deletions for superlibrarians]

The merge has gone through but I think librarian forgot to combine. Please recombine with the rest of the works with same title.

Thank You!

Thank You!"
Working on it in the other thread.
Please don't remove an ASIN from an edition, and then re-create another edition with the same ASIN on a different author profile.
If you need help moving a book to a different author profile, you can post here in the Librarians Group. Removing ASIN's or other valid data is almost always against policy.

Can you please remove or merge with the edition that shows a cover picture.
Thanks"
On try number many. I managed to merge so is okay now. Thanks

will need to be recombined.

According to author's blog: http://melissa-delacruz.com/guys-aski... this book is never being officially published. The default edition (which has the correct title) is the first rough draft which she sold on her blog for a few months in 2016. This edition is a placeholder for the official publication which never went through.

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

Edition with no information. Separated out from https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Please delete this book. The title is incorrect and should not be combined with the valid editions. Thank you!

Please delete this book. Its duplicate the original version. Thanks!

Please contact Goodreads Support.
Books that are no longer available or republished with a different title are not deleted from GR.
Support has to determine if this old edition is considered published, and if it can be deleted.

#703 both are valid ebook editions. Kindle editions, with ASIN, sold through Amazon, and ebook editions, with isbn, sold through other distributors, are considered different formats on GR. The editions are combined, as they should be.
#704 not done, there is a giveaway attached and merging might influence the giveaway
Update: duplicate merged, now the giveaway has ended.
#705 not done, covers are different (most noticable the line above the author's name)
#706 done
#707 not done, all three covers are different (position of 24 authors" vs the head, and position of "foreword written" vs the fold in the sheet)
#708 done
#709 done, please use a general combine thread next time, or start a new one

Looks like you combined both editions. Merged (= deleted) one of them and updated the remaining edition with details from Amazon.
#714 done
#715 reverted a title change. If it was indeed never released, the author should contact Support.
#716 not done, flagged for Support, as there have been edits by an employee on that edition
#717 done
#718 not done, for cancelled books, the author should contact GR Support
#719 not done, cover change reverted

Looks like you combined both editions. One of them queued for merging now.
#714 queued
#715 reverte..."
Okay

#721 not done (yet).
First link: cover is different from the default. Please separate duplicate together with the edition with identical cover.
Second link: format is different from the default. Please separate duplicate together with valid edition with identical format.
And if separating both is not possible for whatever reason, please at least link to both editions.
#722-725 done
#726 combined and merged.
For reviews/ratings/shelvings to be transferred to the valid edition (which is what merging does), the duplicate has to be combined with the valid edition.
#727-728 done

#730 not done, that is a valid edition. In case you meant the other Kindle edition, GR does not delete books/editions that are no longer available.
Please see https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/2... and https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/3...
#732 Please don't separate the duplicate from the valid edition. We don't just delete books, we merge them, meaning transferring shelving/ratings/reviews to the valid editions.
Combined the duplicate of Holy Sinner with the edition of Holy Sinner with the cover and merged.
For the Japanese edition, although it doesn't have much data, it looks like a valid edition.
#733 Combined, not merged, as both have a different cover.
GR authors have limited librarian status for their own books.
#734 If a book is republished with a different title, the editions should be combined. If no edition with this title, including ARC's, was ever published, please contact Goodreads Support.

Please make sure the duplicate is combined with its matching valid edition, or at least link to both editions when combining is not possible.
#736 done
#737 done.
Please make sure the duplicate is combined with its matching valid edition, or at least link to both editions when combining is not possible.
#738 not done, that is a valid Kindle edition. GR does not delete editions that are no longer available.
#739 not done, combined. That is a valid edition with isbn.
#743 not done, that is a valid Kindle edition, combined with the paperback.
Also, please don't link to an edit page, but link to the book page instead.
And in this thread, the responses are mentioned with the number of the message. The reply just after your post was not in response of your post, but to posts earlier in this thread.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... SS only listing from New Yorker magazine which requires a subscription. I separated another book out and combined. Please merge. (I found another edition online but Rivka said that was also a mag see conv here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... )
Proof the SS is in this book http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/pl.cgi?2... (I found an ebook version since the one I am asking you to merge is also an ebook)
Will need to be recombined.

I have two identical editions that need to be merged. However, both have more than 5 reviews, so I cannot delete one. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2....
Can someone please delete one? It does not make a difference which is one is deleted.
Thanks,
Daniel.
