sorry, i'm confused. in the first link though, the listed isbn number only has 10 digits. how can it be an isbn 13.

what does separate them together mean? like separate both editions, then combine them so they're like they're own book, that only has those 2 editions?

then after deletion/merging i'd re-combine the one book back to the parent book?

sorry, i'm still new to being a librarian before and i haven't' done this deletion stuff yet

this edition needs to be merged into the one below (it's a duplicate.)
the only concern is that they have a different page count, but the page count on this first one is incorrect, because the hardcover uk edition has 528 pages

this is the correct edition complete with real isbn number:

If someone is mistakenly pasting ISBN13 number into ISBN10 field it get truncated to 10 numbers. This is quite common mistake (same as ASIN in the ISBN field).

Yes, exactly.
You can also include a link to the main edition the two were separated from in your request and we'll combine the remaining edition back.

Sorry, Olivia, for my original mistake in forgetting to link the book, and for taking so long to check back. Thank you.

Kim,
this thread is to request deletions of book duplicates.
To request editions to be combined please start a new thread or post in one of 'combine' threads.

Vanessa Rasanen | 10 comments Hi!

Could you please delete this edition of the book:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

This one was created when my ebook went live on Amazon, but it is a duplicate of the pre-existing one created by Ingram.

Thank you!!!


message 812: by Olivia (new)

Olivia (livka) | 7926 comments #820 Vanessa,
please note that on Goodreads Kindle editions and ebook editions are listed separately. I combined Kindle edition with other two (ebook and paperback)


message 813: by Ginger (new)

Ginger Scott (gingerscott) | 10 comments Hi. I have a book in my profile that is not mine. It's actually a fraudulent book that was created by someone else (even spelled incorrectly in the title) as an attempt to make some quick money on iBooks and Amazon. :(
I've had it removed from my profile before, but can you do it again? Is there a way to prevent it from coming back? Or archiving the book so it quits showing up? It's not a real book. Thanks.
Here is the title - Pyschic Killer Decoy
You'll see it in my profile. Grateful for the help.

message 818: by Random Reading (new)

Random Reading | 65 comments Hello. Please deleate one of the book. They are the same book but one is with ASIN code and the other ISBN code. The correct one is the ASIN code because this book has been just released as a kindle edition. I also put the link of the amazon page.

Thank you in advance.

Done:

And the parent book book for them/it to be re-combined back to upon completion:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

thank you


message 829: by Shannon (new)

Shannon Fay (bottomofastairwell) | 156 comments https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

These books are duplicates to be merged. One has ISBN/details, and the other doesn't have many details. The only issue is that in the book with less details, the page number isn't the same, and that's because it is incorrect. (i scoured the internet and found out that for this hardcover with this ISBN, there are in fact 528 pages, not 514)

Anyway, this is the parent book for them to be re-combined back to upon completion:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...


message 830: by Shannon (new)

Shannon Fay (bottomofastairwell) | 156 comments I know this is not the thread for it, and all combining should be posted in it's own thread or in one of the "please combine" threads, but because I saw it and was here, I took care of #815 anyway.

ou cannot however remove an author's name as it appears on the cover of the book. So I made Thomas the primary author, then shifted his name in Korean down.
