We generally do not keep webtoons, as they rarely meet our criteria. In many cases, the best/only merge target will have a different cover and/or be in a different language.

Dobby (dobby0390) | 7858 comments Good to know; thank you. :)

This is the first time I've encountered this particular situation; I appreciate the help.

Question: There are two paperback editions, one in Chinese published in November 2019 and the other in Vietnamese published in November 2021. Only one of the four webtoon records is dated (December 2020). How should the merges be distributed?

I would merge them into the Chinese edition.
