The duplicate listings should be deleted or merged.

The title has a typo. There's no "-y" on "Eunuch."

David Raz (davidraz) | 12846 comments I beg to differ, there were at least six redundant invalid editions created by the bot. I marked them all invalid.

For future reference, this action does not necessitate a superlibrarian. Please post future requests in the 'Book & Author Page Issues' folder.


Tucker | 68 comments Thank you! I know regular librarians can do merges, but I wasn't sure about deletes. Appreciate it.

David Raz (davidraz) | 12846 comments First, merge and delete are the same thing. The way we merge an edition is by setting the status to "Deleted", which effectively merges the reviews to the default edition.

Second, these editions did not require a delete (=merge), they required setting the status to invalid, which any librarian can do.

Good to know, thanks.
