Please delete this book. My agent would like it deleted as I stupidly posted it before it even sold and it is confusing publishershttps://www.goodreads.com/en/book/sho...
It is NOT a valid book yet!

New author, added my first book and somehow ended up with two editions. Help??This is correct, has the ASIN and an Amazon link: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
This is unnecessary, has no links, and can be deleted: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

757 The ASIN was in the ISBN13 slot, so you basically fixed it by creating an alternate cover edition for it :-) no changes needed

760 You need to post in "this book is not mine" https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... You will need to re-copy and paste your link as they do not copy from post to post
761 The covers differ ever so slightly in the placement of the blurb on the left

Thanks, Emily, apologies for the time-wasting exercise !!
Hi,Someone tried to put an alternative cover in, but didn't know how and didn't succeed and used the ASIN for the ISBN. I've put the alternative cover in for this edition and the ISBN (used ASIN and I've removed ASIN in the ISBN.. it's now empty) version of this needs to be deleted please:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
Same goes for this one:

This is an Amazon series page, not a book. I assume the nine people who've added it meant to add the first issue in the series. Combined with said issue.Books of Magic (2018-) (Issues)
Please delete. This is not a book, it's a short article on a newspaper.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

It's something that needs to be discussed with the super librarian. In my opinion, I would insert a space or two between the first name and the surname for this other Kevin... it's how normally done.
Tip: If you ever in doubt about author's names etc and where if it belongs etc, copy the ASIN of a book, which would be a Kindle edition (if there's one) example:
B07Q24X3RV
And then go to Amazon and open any kindle book and in the address bar, edit the address... example:
www.amazon.com/Alien-Warriors-Secret-... <-- click on the link to see the address.
To:
www.amazon.com/dp/B07Q24X3RV
The ASIN is part of the web address for that book. And you can now click on the author and have a good look to see that author's books and some have bios. Just be aware that out of print editions, mostly won't show up.. However, you still can try and google for it and perhaps get a cached version of it, and shows the details etc.
Kevin, that's how I do it. I'm sure some others do too. Good luck!

It's a duplicate of

thanks to Amazon mispelling the name of the author.
Thanks!
Please delete this edition. It was a pre-order that never got published.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
This is the correct edition.

Thank you.
780 through 802 should be done#780 This did not require a superlibrarian for the merge on #1 as there was only one review. I combined them and then separated them together for merging. I added the ASIN for the ACE on #2. Nothing needed to be merged for that one.
