[done] Alternate Cover Edition without ISBN

[Jana]

This edition is a newer alternate cover edition from 2020 of this one.

I can't remove the ISBN from the older edition (and add a librarian note) and if I added a new ACE I couldn't delete the incomplete duplicate because it's already been shelved too often, so I'd appreciate some help here.

Thanks in advance!

Only staff can move ISBNs now, so you should ask Support: https://www.goodreads.com/about/conta...

Adding a new alternate cover edition instead and then merging it with the existing one also wouldn't work? Maybe that's easier than waiting for support to deal with it but if you think it's better to let staff do it I will try that.

If the supers don't mind the extra work it is up to them.

(Since I don't understand why librarians are not allowed to edit ISBNs anymore, I prefer to have Support do it. Also, I'm not sure if the recent merging problems have been resolved completely yet.)

I would have preferred it if you created the ACE and only asked for a merge, but I went ahead and did it all myself.

Thank you! I wasn't sure if Superlibrarians could just move the ISBN so I left it since that would've made everything much easier. Had I known that you have to add an ACE and then merge that, I would've only asked for the merge. For next time I know!

Oops, I assumed that Jana requested to have an ACE made, but I now see that was merely my interpretation of her comment #3.

Sorry, Jana :)
