It wasn't another edition, but rather a duplicate copy. So I feel it is better to delete the book then Merging it.

It got "deleted". Merge means to delete into another copy. If there aren't too many adds (<5) a regular librarian can do it so it doesn't need to be on this particular thread. So she took care of it instead of it waiting on a Super. (while waiting for system caching it may look like it's combined but it will disappear soon-ish)

These editions were already separated because of malformed IBSN numbers & one had the book format entered as the primary author.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

duplicate https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...(ASIN as ISBN, that "DerMarlowe" was a copy paste error by me, thought initially the ASIN would be a different one that the one already there)

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...Short story to delete. It's been widely anthologized, but never published standalone.

Hi, can you delete this? It's the wrong title. The actual one is already on there. Thanks!https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
I have separated two identical editions of Tove Jansson's Det osynliga barnet (one had been created with the isbn 10 and the other with the corresponding isbn 13). Please delete Det osynliga barnet and combine Det osynliga barnet back with Tales from Moominvalley.
#749 done#750 that link is for the hardcover edition, with a valid isbn. The hardcover edition with this isbn is on Amazon. The edition you've added is for the paperback edition, with a different isbn. No reason to delete one.
#751-755 not done, as there is no merge target for these duplicates. A duplicate has to be combined with the valid edition to be merged (=deleted)
Also, please don't move valid data (like isbn or asin). Removing or changing isbn or asin is not allowed.
When isbn10 is on one edition and isbn13 on another, please link to both editions, as moving makes it only more difficult to determine if the merge is valid.
#756 done
Next time, please separate both editions, and combine them only with each other.
#757 separated them, together with four more duplicates of the same edition. Queued for merging.
#758-760 done#761 combined, no delete, as both are valid editions
#762-763 done
#766-767 done
#768/769 some magazines are allowed. I have no idea if these are.
#770-772 done
#773 please don't link to edit pages. Not merged, as the cover is different than the default edition.
When there is a valid edition with identical cover, please separate those two.
#774-775 done
#776 not done, covers are different ("Love against the odds" above the title)
#777-778 done
Please merge:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
into:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...
Thanks
#779 That book needs to be moved, not deleted. Any librarian can move a book. Please start a new thread next time, or use this dedicated thread: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...#780 some magazines are allowed. I have no idea if this is.
#781 No need to post all editions separate. I will work on it later, as it is quite a project.
Update: these podcasts, and the ones that were not yet added to the series page, are gone now.
#782 done
#783 they are combined now. All editions are valid (Unless the ebook is Kindle exclusive, in which case the ebook edition can be merged. Generally ebook and Kindle are different formats on GR).
#784 That book needs to be moved, not deleted. Any librarian can move a book. Please start a new thread next time, or use this dedicated thread: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
#785 done#786 combined, but this is really not the right thread for this kind of request. Please start a new thread next time, or use a general combine thread. This thread is for deleting duplicates.
#787-788 done
#789 why should it be merged into that edition? Description is completely different. Is the short story included in that edition?
#790-792 done
#795 someone had already recombined them. Found the other czech edition, separated both, merged the duplicate and recombined.
#796 done
#797 not done, covers are different (bottom right corner)
#798-799 done
#800 no need to be merged. Cover and ASIN from Audible.com added to the edition without cover.
that's a duplicate https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... as far as I could see the real kindle is the default
that looks like a duplicate to me https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...kindle with the same cover photo is the default
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...Please delete this edition; write the title of the book instead of the letters with the number... Cover with Label (From Book StoreMarketing)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...Please complete the information and cover photo of this book with another version ... and delete this duplicate version
re-combine with https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
#789 and #859 no it doesn't just thought there would be a rule that in case of books that GR doesn't consider as valid we should merge into the last(or first? wasn't 100% sure about that but last seems more logic for the shelvings) part of the series so that the shelvings don't get lost.But I may confuse that with I don't know what..
And for the reviews that probably wouldn't be the best target, although it might not be the worst for the shelvings but, my fault didn't think about the reviews.
Separated it out again https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... - then it needs only to be deleted.
