For editions to be merged with something other than the work default, please remember to separate out the two editions for merging before posting in this thread.

NOTE: This thread is for requesting the deletion of true duplicates -- two entries for the same edition of a book. If you need help with anything else (e.g.: moving books off an author's page where they have appeared in error, author disambiguation, combining editions, etc.) please start a NEW THREAD in this folder.

10 digit isbn in the 13 isbn field. I combined with matching version. Please merge and recombine.

Pamela Anneliese (faery-hearted_lady) | 2 comments Please delete the following two book listings:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

There were only ever two editions released of this book, both of which are already listed and have pages.

Thank you. :)

Re #12, publishers frequently use more than one ISBN when publishing a specific format of a book. Those look perfectly valid.

Kai Weber (springday) | 14 comments https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... has a garbled ISBN. Please delete this book. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... has the correct book information.

After deletion, please re-combine with "Civilization and Its Discontents" (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...)

Thanks a lot

Renske | 12223 comments 2-10 Could you please combine the editions, as the first message of this thread asks? As those books are in Arabic and most super-librarians are not familiar with that language, it is even more important if you could combine them.

11 done

13 done

15-16 done

17 According to Amazon the ISBN is for a hardcover and the other edition is a paperback, so I didn't merge them.

18 done

28 Yes, the editions that need deleting must be combined with the edition that stays. Then the reviews / people who have added the book are moved to the edition that stays.

Deleting published books from our system is against policy. Goodreads is striving to be a complete database of all published works, including works that are out-of-print. We like our members to be able to add their exact edition to their virtual shelves. Just as a library would not remove a record from its catalog, so do we not remove books from our database.

Please note: Authors who attempt to delete, edit to blank, or otherwise vandalize older editions of books may have their author and /or librarian privileges revoked.

I think fanfiction can be deleted at the author's request...

Hi,

The books have all been merged into one book on Kindle and thus is no longer available individually. However, if you prefer to have them all on Goodreads even though they are unavailable that's perfectly fine with me.
Thank you so much for your help.
