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. [Non-librarians: Please just note in your requests that you are unable to complete this step.]

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.


Elizabeth (Alaska) #965 in the old thread appears to have been skipped.

No, it was posted as done, but in the last short while. So probably just has not gone through yet.


Elizabeth (Alaska) Thanks, Rivka. I thought I looked, but apparently not close enough.

Katherine (athryn) | 336 comments Please delete - this particular edition is the short story published in Astounding Magazine, not the book containing the short story, already combined.

message 10: by Moloch (new)

Moloch | 3975 comments Please check this
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...

It has an ASIN, but on Amazon with this ASIN I find only a paperback edition: https://www.amazon.com/Profezia-Curan...
Could it be one of the used items to which ASINs are assigned?

If delete, then merge into most popular edition.

Thanks

Emily | 17452 comments #5-8 merging or done

#9 Someone deleted the ASIN and replaced it with an ISBN a long time ago contrary to policy. I have merged them and then added an alternate cover edition for that ASIN.

#10 Yes, an ASIN was just assigned to this physical book so I have merged it.

No worries! I have done that one (merging) and a few others on her profile.
Since there is a glitch in the NAB tool, these may come back tomorrow. If you catch them before anyone adds them to a shelf, you can use the NAB tool yourself. On the right hand side of the edit page there will be a link that says "Mark as not a book."

Bless you! Those were the others I was going to do and I knew it would take a while. Thanks so much!

And, yes, I think I've gotten pretty good at NABbing if it hasn't been shelved too many times; it's just when I have to ask someone else to do it, I wasn't clear on how far to go in the process.

You left me a note about this the other day, and I think I may have misunderstood by looking at how you NABbed the others for this author. When I need to NAB one of these, do I have to separate one edition from 1st in series and combine it with it (if there's more than one edition) or can I simply combine it with all the 1st in series editions that exist? If there's no separating needed, that would be so much faster.
