Jordan, each time you've requested this deletion, you've been told that librarians cannot delete your book. We do not have that authority. Only Goodreads staff can make that decision.

If your book was never published and never will be published, contact Goodreads Support, as explained here.

Monika M. (cassiopeia_the_elf) | 20 comments Hi. This book has 4 editions https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio... however there is actually only 3 different ones - English ebook, English book (supposedly? Nothing marked for edition) and Spanish ebook. I don't know why there are 2 English ebooks, without any differences from the others - no IBSN, not extra publishing date. I can't delete any of them, because they all have too many reviews, so could a superlibrarian help and clean a bit?

Arenda | 26447 comments The numbering of the posts has been changed. If I'm correct, everything up to and including 539 has been adressed.

#540 Please make a new request for each book/title. Also, when they are duplicates, please link to both editions. Before merging, duplicates have to be combined with each other, to transfer ratings/reviews and shelvings to the valid edition. Also, most of the editions you linked to have an isbn or asin, which makes them valid editions.

#546/547 done
#550 done
#552-553 duplicates are merged, not yet recombined as the combine page for Agatha Christie times out.
#555 Those are all valid editions, no reason to delete. Combined them with each other and with the other edition. There is one edition with missing details, but has a different format (paperback).
#558 done
#561 looks like it was done
#562-563 done
#565 done

#568-571 done
#572 that is a valid paperback edition, no delete. (Added cover from Amazon, and needs to be combined with the Kindle edition). There is a duplicate paperback edition. Merged that one and combined with the Kindle edition.
#575-576 done
#578 done. It would really help if you say which one is the duplicate/has the invalid isbn
#579 done
#580 there is quite a color difference between the covers.

I think the numbering is off? This requester has been referred to staff multiple times.

#581 - not anymore.

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments #593 Do NOT remove covers. Changes reverted. Edits contrary to policy should be flagged and may result in the loss of Librarian privileges.

FWIW I also agree with Arenda's original decision on the colour variation. It is small, but they do appear to be two different valid printings.

Sandra | 31478 comments Split ISBN 10 & 13. I suggest using the 10 as it is the better cover.

Орлин Томов (oritomov) | 64 comments #594 - Ok. Let me explain. This is an 'entertaining' book printed during the Socialism. There was strict control from Communist Party over the several publishers (I can name them all) about content and volume of books. This kind of books are so limited that I own and read ALL of them.
see #35 on https://bg.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%91%...

oh gosh. I didnt see the full explanation on my side. I apologize. I'll send another support note. I think it may be useless at this point. I think it might be better to just never put books on here until they go live

Орлин is right, those are NOT two different covers nor two different editions. Quality of print wasn't that great back then and a lot of copies were printed so there were quite a few cases of damaged covers, colours, pages etc. This it the same edition, please merge.
