#813 queued but has truncated ISBN13 so probably needs another target for that edition too.EDIT: Syphoned off the Russian editions for major work. If anyone else want to chip in to identify merges you're welcome!

Olivia wrote: "#782 Were any advanced reader copies of this book distributed, either in ebook or physical book format?"Hello,
I had answered in #786, perhaps my simple "No" reply was missed/overlooked? Or maybe it was an insufficient answer. If so, I apologize! Here is more complete info to hopefully clarify a bit more. Thank you so much.
The edition was added on Goodreads by me... it was never sent to any publisher, nor distributed in any format, including not even to any advanced readers.

#824 I'm sorry Tully, but I do not feel competent to do the deletion.Goodreads manual is not clear how to deal with that kind of record.
From Manual:
Goodreads considers the following to be valid book records:
(...)
* books withdrawn from publishing if enough information was ever provided to make a book record a useful resource
However the last line here says:
However, if your book was never published and never will be published, we might be able to remove it. Please contact us.
I'm afraid you'll need to contact support and have them decide.
Sorry again for the confusion.

Please merge: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...(surprise! It's a great courses record, but there's nothing to NAB because no details :D)
So sorry! This one is a multi-parter.1. (Merge) This Great Course had its ISBNs removed, and a new record with the same ISBNs was subsequently created, so they should be merged together: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
2. (Merge) There were no additional details on this edition, but since it has the same cover as the CD version vs. the Audible version, it should probably be merged with that one. Also, the image on the detail-less one is much nicer.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
3. (Combine with and Merge) DVD, into what will be the default edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
and NAB 1598031864 / 9781598031867
4. Recombine with https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Please merge (Great Courses DVD): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...And NAB 1598037145 / 9781598037142
Please merge (Great Courses DVD): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...And NAB 1598036378 / 9781598036374
Both of these need to be merged into the edition with the fewest reviews (both DVDs): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
And then these ISBNs need to be NAB'd:
1598032755 / 9781598032758
1598032747 / 9781598032741
When that sort of thing happens, is it more efficient to separate out the extra editions so that you can merge one at a time, and not have to merge subsets of things twice?

Used to be combined with:

But the Penguin Modern edition also contains the sermon 'The Three Dimensions of a Complete Life'.
Print edition comic book (shouldn't have been added to the database), merge with default https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3....
It's still showing the wrong cover. I need this cover removed and the other used on all links for Circle of Secrets. Please and thanks!https://www.goodreads.com/book/edit/1...

As was mentioned in the previous reply to you, Goodreads does not remove old covers or editions. For assistance adding new editions with the new cover, please start a new thread.
