Tash, this thread is for deletion of duplicates. I was noting that the remaining edition after the merge has to be combined back (since I forget and would like it noted down somewhere).
I separated #765 again.

Tash,
this thread is for merging editions that have more than 5 shelvings, so need a super-librarian and not for combining editions.
Please separate them back, so they can be merged correctly.
Thanks

Can you delete this wrong edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...Correct one is here: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
#770There was no reason to move ISBN13
There was certainly no reason to completely remove ISBN10
Changes reverted and place-holder edition merged

Neither of these books (or the author) actually exist. They're fake books discussed in Cold Comfort Farm.
Can someone help me changing the cover for this book?
Please delete https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... as it is a duplicate of https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
Hello! Can you please delete Antisaint: Blaire's World, Book 9 by Yolanda Olson:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
This was supposed to be part of a series, but it isn't being written any longer.

I don’t know if these need to be merged or deleted, all I know is that these should all come under the same entry. Please use your discretion and do the needful. Thanks!
All of these are the same work “The Kamba Ramayana”.The edition with complete details: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Other entries:

These entries all refer to P. S. Sundaram’s English translation of Kamban’s work. The blurb explains the situation better.
Thanks!

Okay, thanks! (What's the difference between combining and merging? Where do I start a new thread?)
#799 Merging is deleting a book. Combining is just making it another edition of a work. And Book Issues would be the correct Folder.

I would opt to merge them. However, the move of ISBN/ISBN13 from the original book record is contrary to directions given previously from staff to librarians, so I reverted those changes.
#787 done#788 empty edition merged to Kindle
#789 done, but this is combining not merging request, please next time post under new or combine thread
#790 done, but this is combining not merging request, please next time post under new or combine thread
Ayshe, all your requests between #791 and #804 are done
This is a slightly more complicated one. I have already separated the two editions in question from the main work.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
The more popular edition (which has the UK cover and blurb) has an ASIN which is not in use, B074DTYXN4. (Checked it on amazon.co.uk, .com, .fr, .de, .nl and others, all bring no results.)
The less popular edition, with the same cover, has the correct amazon.co.uk ASIN, B07BD53DG7.
The two editions need to be merged and given the active ASIN, B07BD53DG7
#810 both ASIN's are correct.The book was listed with ASIN B074DTYXN4 in the past and the Amazon link to this ASIN is still working.
Goodreads does not delete out of print books or editions.
There is no way for us to be completely sure that the book was never available for sell with this ASIN, even as a prerecord, so the record should not be deleted.
