Abcdarian | 26579 comments What is incorrect about the edition with ISBN? We can make the corrections, then delete the edition without ISBN. We're really not allowed to do it the other way.

Merge pending on the two duplicate editions.

Abcdarian | 26579 comments 1980735832 isn't an ASIN I'm afraid; it's an ISBN 10. There is a kindle edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

Paperbacks on Goodreads are listed with ISBNs, not ASINs. However, that is also the ISBN10, and is listed as such.

Abcdarian | 26579 comments The edition with ISBN is a paperback, the one with ASIN is a kindle.

It doesn't make a difference who published it, print books and ebook editions always have an ISBN. Only Kindle format editions and Audible editions have an ASIN, no other format uses that identifier. This paperback edition has all of the correct, valid details; nothing needed changing, and so it shouldn't be deleted. I have added the 3rd edition detail.

As the author, you do have the ability to set the default edition- https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/3....

The paperback is listed correctly, with the ISBN, in the Amazon listing here- https://www.amazon.com/Keep-Falling-M.... It's correct as it stands; ASINs are only used for Kindle format.

Amazon sometimes also labels the ISBN10 of a paperback as an ASIN. But it is still the ISBN10, and belongs in the correct spot on the Goodreads book record.

I have replaced it on the paperback record, as removing valid book data is contrary to Goodreads policy.

There are 2 editions for the same Portuguese edition of "Sangue Frio"; please delete this edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

This is the one that has more complete information, including the ISBN: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

Thank you!
