The author had said that she had only published on amazon, and that there were not kindle/ebook editions any place else. If that is in error, I had not been able to verify that.

I appreciate this Suzi, but if there is any doubt, like I have here, I think we should keep these editions or leave the deletion to staff.

K, Nz | 162 comments Tidying up book editions
This is the correct edition
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
This is the one I tried to merge
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
I did delete this edition.
It is likely there were more than five shelves of this edition, Have I made a big mistake and removed reviews etc. I refreshed the book cache as well.
Now I see in this thread that deletions can only be done by superlibrarians, that is not in the manual, and a situation like this is probably why.... I will post in this thread from now on

May I ask for help from a Superlibrarian to check what I have done, please?

Many thanks.

If they are at least related, it is one way to avoid losing the reviews.

I removed the connected book from 263 - it is a subscription only book. However it is managed is immaterial to me. I just thought it should be removed.

As one can check on the Librarian Changelog they share the same ASIN.

Martina | 806 comments I'm unable to merge these duplicates because only a super-librarian can combine or separate a book with more than 10000 reviews.

Antonomasia | 514 comments Was never published:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Was published under different title following year and these three editions/ISBNs were scrapped rather than used for that:

Armand Human (armandhuman) | 1 comments Someone uploaded my unpublished "book" on Goodreads. It's not a book, it's basically an old blog post that I've since removed. It's inappropriate to have this title on Goodreads since it's not a book and added without my permission. Please remove this mistake.
