Please delete this book! (pt. 52) [Anyone requests; leave deletions for superlibrarians]

I'm pretty sure they just have ASIN's because it's a Kindle Fire app not an ebook."
Those are not books. NAB'd.
Is this the right place to request removal of books from one's author page? All but two of the titles on this page have been unpublished and are no longer available:https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=gw...
The only two that should be listed are "Saucy Tales for Bedtime" and "Nepeta Cataria."
Thanks!

#480: Gwynne, Goodreads does not delete out of print books as readers will have shelved them. They could be marked as no longer available; please start a new thread in Book Issues if you wish to request that.
2 placeholders for the one bookkindle edition
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
Big placeholder & ebook edition, I suggest merging into the kindle edition after recombining
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Please merge:https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
and recombine with:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Thank you!
Need super--please combine: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
with
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
They are the same book and edition. The second listing is the correct one created by my publisher with new title and description; I would like the reviews/adds/stats of the first listing transferred to the new one.
I have tried but am not able to separate out the two editions. Thank you!
Re 490: Sorry, I should have warned you in the combine thread (https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...), copying the book links doesn't work. You'll have to edit them in your post above.
Please merge the other two books with this one:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
One has an invalid ISBN, the other has no iSBN. There is only one ISBN for all editions of this title by this publisher.
After that, please merge with the original title:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...
Combine Editions and Merge Two Editions - "This Is How It Always Is" by Laurie Frankel29 Editions
https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
The two following editions need to be merged prior to combining with the main entry. Correct name from Frankel, Laurie to Laurie Frankel. And correct the title of the book which is shown with it's ISBN as the title.
https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
Non-librarian so unable to separate.
Please merge these editions:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Hi! There a few problems with my listing since I moved my book from KDP to Draft2Digital.
1) The link to buy https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... should be https://www.books2read.com/u/bwYp1Y
2) These 2 items need to be deleted: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... and https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
Thank you so much! I hope I gave the info that you need.

2) Goodreads does not delete out-of-print books or editions. Please see https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/2... and https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/3...
I was told by a user in the Lithuanian GR group that this book does not exist https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
It's a short story that has never been published as a separate book. Would it be possible to delete it?

Has it been published in any anthologies or other book collections? We prefer to merge into another work, rather than completely deleting the record and losing all the readers' reviews.

duplicate
Cover of second one is a photograph, just same as former one.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
The second of these is a duplicate of the first, except that the ASIN has been incorrectly entered into the ISBN field. However, the first doesn't seem to have the publisher included. Probably a robo-error.
Please delete this https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4..., since it's a double without the correct info. The one with ISBN is the correct one.
Please, could somebody merge theses three books? There has been only one edition. Strange that the person(s) who added all the books did not add the ISBN. But since the id numbers are so close to each other it looks like a tripple click. I am adding the ISBN to the first one.

Please ignore, just realised one was an ebook & the other a paperback.

I've separated the duplicate. Superlibrarian is needed to delete it :s

Done! :)
Wrong author name (It's Martin Barnes, not Marnes)https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
And the book was published 27 September 2018
Patt wrote: "Done! :)"Hi Patt,
Please note that this thread is for book deletions, not for combining books (please see a thread subject and message #1).
Librarians take their time to separate two identical editions in preperation for a duplicate to be merged correctly, so please do not recombine the editions from this thread.

Update - this massive merge is now complited ;)
#439, 441, 443, 445 - 449 done#450 although ISBN 6058487413 is invalid the other edition has a diferent cover, so it is not a correct merge target
#451 - 452 done
#453 I corrected the title and description based on Amazon listing; the edition appears to be a study guide with DVD
#454 - 466 done#469 Goodreads considers books withdrawn from publishing to be valid book records if enough information was ever provided to make a book record a useful resource.
However, if the book was never published and never will be published, they might be able to remove it. Author will need to contact support and request it.
#470 the covers are different
#472 looks like a valid box set; title corrected
#473 and 474 this one has a third party ASIN, so I'm not sure if it was acctually published as box set; might need NAB'ing could someone else also take a look?
Can you please delete this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...I'm guessing it has been made it only as a placeholder, and there's no additional info such as ASIN or ISBN.
Other three additions are ok and have additional info as well as formats. The book is set to come out in November 2019.

#474 Less sure about this one. I would think that the spines would all look alike with a genuine set, but maybe not.
