Danke beaucoup!
#53 Tricia,there are two editions for this book now: ebook without ISBN data and Kindle edition with ASIN. Will the book be available on other platforms than Amazon?
If so, we would need to keep the ebook, as it is listed separately from Kindle on Goodreads.

1) I can't see any duplicated editions
2) deleted one article, but the other seams to have been published (it has ASIN)
#55 done
Well, at this point I think the whole Cocktales anthology was "divided" into its short stories... Please, merge this one too https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
I'm linking the editions page https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio... where you can find the rest of the short stories I can't merge
Dear superlibrarians,Please help me to merge this book, only one is publisher supplied. Please delete the version with ISBN13 2010000998755 (wrong ISBN).

But it appears you did write them, correct?
Please merge:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
into

Hopefully the larger cover art can be retained.

They were self-published (and no longer available) and they were tied to a separate author email. I opened this new email in 2018 to re-brand myself now that I am being published by Macmillan. I would really appreciate them being taken off my author dashboard for this email account. Again, I did not add them. Thank you.

Goodreads does not delete out-of-print books or editions. Please see http://www.goodreads.com/help/show/22... and http://www.goodreads.com/help/show/32...
This book does not seem to exist:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/36293781
Only in Kindle, but amazon does not list it.
ASIN not found.

Which most likely just means it is out of print.

Why? Is it not going to be published?

There are two versions of the same book. The other version already has reviews attached to it 😊

"Published" nine months ago and out of print? There should be some trace of the existence of this book, not just a mystery Goodreads record.
Mod
Some authors only publish via Kindle, and take them down after a few months. It's not uncommon, and not a reason to delete the Goodreads record.
Mod
Yes, but the other edition is missing the edition-specific data, like format and ASIN. So it's actually the one needing deletion -- after I combined it with the one with the data, so the reviews etc will move over to it. The merge is now pending.
Next time, if there are two editions involved, please link both so the librarians responding to your request can see the whole picture.

First link in #64 pointed to editions linked to author's name incorrectly spelled. These are now deleted.

No, I just corrected the author name and combined them with other editions.

ebook & kindle are indeed two different editions. Changing the author name & combining was correct action. Thanks!

Great, thanks for clarification.
This edition has no ISBN nor any details: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...Should be deleted and merged with the other editions, I guess.
Thanks!

Nope, I can't find any prove the ISBN is not valid.
Default that has no details, so I didn't separate to prepare for mergehttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Hello Please delete this duplicate:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
Please add editor L. Trammel and denote that this entry is for the Kindle edition
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
Thank you :)
#98 done, corrected authors on other editions#99 Blake,
I merged duplicated edition with the Kindle edition.
Please note that on Goodreads editors should only be added for records like anthologies and reference materials. Novels and other works of fiction should not have editors listed.
I removed the editor from one edition.
I also corrected the title as the collections of poems wouldn't generally be considered a series on Goodreads.
Default edition, format "ebook" with no details, but it is only available as Kindle edition, please deletehttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
