David Raz (davidraz) | 12870 comments You are a librarian, any reason you don't do this yourself?
Besides, it was a bot invalid edition, no merge needed, so it is a one-click job.

Gabriel Nita (gabrielnita) | 12 comments I thought only a Superlibrarian can delete books. If you have time can you please indicate where should I click to delete it?

David Raz (davidraz) | 12870 comments I'm sure this is somewhere in the manual.

To delete an edition, combine it with another edition, edit the edition you want to delete and change the status to "Deleted". You can do that yourself if the edition was shelved by less than five people.

However, this edition didn't need deleting, it needed to be marked invalid. An invalid edition, in this case, is a paperback or hardcover edition with ASIN only, which was added by a bot and was not shelved. These editions can go through a faster process, just change status to "Invalid".
