Please delete this book! (pt. 31) [Anyone requests; leave deletions for superlibrarians]
These two books are the same. I'm not sure which should be kept and which should be deleted.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Merge: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...Combine back with: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Are these meant to be merged? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
^The first one should be listed as an ebook instead right? Since it has a ISBN instead of an ASIN.
The lack of details is in the default edition.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
This edition is the only one the publisher produced in 2008, the date of the default, and these shelvings/reviews should be merged with the default.
For future reference, would you prefer that the details be moved to the default to make it easier for you to merge?
Can a super delete this edition please? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... There's no info. It's already combined with the correct editions.
Super needed.Can you delete the following book
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...
It has a 9 digit ISBN 044050571
If you add the checksum digit 0440505712 you will find the edition already exists with a better cover pic, and is a separate book, Vol 1, not Vol 2 as shown below.

I ripped the definition from it and added it to my personal copy as it was a near perfect fit. Nothing left to salvage.
4 pending5 nothing needed, one a kindle, the other paperback
Hello. Could a superlibrarian please merge these editions? The picture for the edition with the most reviews also contains the binding of the book, but they are still the same edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...It can then be recombined with this: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...
Thank you.
#12 I think its already been done because that book has a proper ISBN.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/combin...These Donald Barthelme stories have not been independently published and can be merged with the following story collections:
Chablis, into Forty Stories
The Balloon
Game
The Indian Uprising
Me and Miss Mandible
The School
into Sixty Stories
I Bought a Little City, into Amateurs
6 Do you have a source for that?7-8 done
9 Someone had changed the ASIN to the ISBN. That edition is merged.
10 done.
11 done. For me, with a book with such a small number of shelvings and a better cover on the right edition, moving data is not needed. With editions with a huge number of shelvings a reversed merge can really reduce the time the system needs to do the merge.
12-13 done
15 done
17 done18 done, except for 'the school' as that is clearly published separately.
Oh yes, I typed that before I saw another, separate entry for it. (Even though it looks like I typed it afterward, I pre-typed it in Notepad.)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...Please delete this book. I created a new edition, but then I saw that this edition is already in the database.
It looks like these should be merged:Unexpected Item in Bagging Area

Could a super librarian delete one of these books? It's the same edition (same ISBN), but I can't delete one of them because of the many reviews. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Afterwards, I'll add the exact dates/cover to the remaining edition as here: http://d-nb.info/105060587X
Thanks!
I added this book:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
but it should have been a new edition, not a entirely new book. Could you either please delete or change to be a new edition?
Thanks and apologies.
#36 no reason to delete. Combined with the other editions.
Can you please delete this book.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
It's actually another editon of Eve (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9...) but without any details.
#32 - In the future please:
1) Since you are a librarian separate out the editions that are to be merged.
2) Provide a link to the book not the edit page.
