Please delete this book! (pt. 27) [Anyone requests; leave deletions for superlibrarians]
re 471, that's amusing. do we have any policy about removing books from Goodreads if they get removed from Amazon for 'objectionable content' or whatever? My first instinct is to separate the three editions and change the author's profile/book info to reflect the covers. But maybe there's some other reason these were titled as such in Amazon's database, like plagiarism, for example...?

Please merge the two Kindle Editions:https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

Please delete this edition of WOVEN. The publisher decided not to publish and returned the rights to us. The book will be published by Scholastic January 27th. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

GR does not delete books that have been read and reviewed as ARC's / pre publication, there are at least two reviews that indicate it has been read.
You can add a new edition for the new publication
I don't believe the one by Sweetwater has been reviewed. Is that the publisher who has decided not to publish?
Yes the publisher canceled the publication. There was a whole scandal because I'm gay and I mentioned my "partner" in my bio. The book will be published by Scholastic because they aren't haters.
Please delete the following book from this website. I am the author under a different pen name (Eleanor Stem), and have had this pulled. Thanks. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
The way it is set up makes it look like a stand on it's own short story: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
but it is a story published in this book:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... should be merged, correct?

Michael wrote: "The publisher was sweetwater"Are you going to use the same ISBN? Because we can always just change the publishing info. If not, I'll go ahead and merge it.
re 478, I can't find a book in the database with that ISBN, so I'm guessing someone took care of it.re 483, Goodreads does not delete books once they are no longer available for purchase. The book stays. However, if you like, we can update the book description to include a statement like "This book is no longer in print" or somesuch.
re 484, yes, absolutely. merged.
re 485, merged.
re 487, reverted ISBN change. book moved to author's profile and combined with other editions.

Short story from a full book (same as 484) I combined with proper book. Please delete/merge.

495 pending
re 496, previews like that one that are actually published works with their own ASINs or ISBNs are NOT combined OR merged with their parent works. they should be left separate.

RE: part b, based on my current understanding, don't think so? But then, pending any update/clarification to Lib Manual, I was more focused on 'bonus' part of the following:
Published online as a specified short story (i.e. not a 'bonus')
But shall let librarians more experienced re: bonuses/shorts/etc weigh in :)

please delete Hiding in Plain Sight ISBN#9780991239108 ( https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... )&merge it with Hiding in Plain Sight ISBN#9780991239115
(#9780991239108 is actually the ISBN for The Possibility of Trey by the same author - and I cannot add that edition if this merge/deletion does not happen)

So I found some duplicates.Fall In Love Like a Comic Vol. 1 and Fall In Love Like a Comic Vol. 2 are duplicates. They don't have ISBNs far as I can tell, and what info they do have (which is very little) is identical to the real listings.
Please merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... and https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...They are the same edition. One has ISBN-10 and the other ISBN-13 (removed incorrect ISBN-10), but it's the same ISBN. Thank you!

Rivka confirmed that the Twilight ones should be deleted here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
That same goes for the rest (non-Twilight) deleted scenes, as well the ones from posts 501 and 503: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
510 - those do not have the same publisher. I will look to see if I can find an edition that matches.Found another Hardcover edition published in 1980 by Avenel and merged. Combined with the other editions of Five Complete Miss Marple Novels.
Got 511. In the future do not put so many in one request. It's very difficult to keep up with where you are on the list when editing.

Techincally, the extras should be merged with the edition that actually contains them (there's a librarian note on that edition), but only a super can separate them.

For some reason there are two versions of this book,
showing up. The one with the cover and one without. Can I have the one without the cover removed or combined with the other?
Please combine these 2 editions of this book (paperback and kindle)https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Hello. I'd like to delete this book. It was supposed to be published months ago, but the publisher closed down and I don't have a home for the book. Awhile ago I removed the title, publisher, and date. Then I tried to delete the entire thing myself and received a message that only super librarians can do this. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
