Renske | 12222 comments I was doing something else while waiting for those large merges to go through.

Hunter Jones (huntersjones) | 19 comments As to my request regarding Magic in Memphis, I'm not certain why or how it has a second ASIN number. If you click on a link to purchase the ebook (novella) the link is dead. Can someone please delete it or merge it with the original version? Thank you so much.

Melody (runningtune) | 13300 comments Even if it is not available anymore it should remain in the GR database.

Hunter Jones (huntersjones) | 19 comments The Magic in Memphis link posted above is a duplicate. I do not know where the ASIN is from, nor do I know why another edition or ASIN has been added. Nothing is new with this publication & nothing has changed since it was originally published. The above link merely needs to be merged with the edition of the novella with has been available since 2013, or deleted, whichever way these situations are handled by GR. Many thanks for your assistance.

The upper page should be removed, because the three books in the image already have their own GoodReads pages

Every Kindle file ever sold by any retailer has been identified as ISBN13: 9780985142438 (ISBN10: 098514243X), and the "location" immediately after the title in the Kindle file has always contained that number visibly in its fullest form:

"International Standard Book Number: 978-0-9851424-3-8 (ebook Kindle)"
--Robert Gaskins. Sweating Bullets: Notes about Inventing PowerPoint (Kindle Location 13).

A product search on Amazon.com for [9780985142438] correctly returns a single result, which is this Kindle edition.

At least two other retailers list the Kindle ebook under its proper ISBN:

http://product.half.ebay.com/Sweating...

http://www.general-ebooks.com/book/78...

The LC lists the correct Kindle ISBNs, but not as held by the LC (they hold the Hardcover and Paperback).

http://catalog.loc.gov/vwebv/holdings...

Open Library lists the correct Kindle ISBNs, and has the correct count of 5 editions total:

https://openlibrary.org/books/OL25444...

When my request is carried out, then Goodreads will list the same 5 editions.

Thanks,

Robert Gaskins

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #975 - That appears to be a valid ISBN for a set of all three books. Being that a number of reviews are on it, and the ISBN is assigned to it, that would mean it stays around.

We would keep it if it had zero shelvings, as long as it is a valid edition.

Yeah, I should have said that.

I know you know; just wanted to make it clear to anyone reading along.

I combined them. Just did not merge them (delete one of them).
