Heejin Ahn (aheejin) | 434 comments I've just created https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2..., and I think I pasted incorrect info in ISBN10. ISBN13 on that item is correct. I'd like to remove its ISBN10, but https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... says even superlibrarians can't do it and I need to contact the staff. Can someone tell me how I can contact the staff?

Thanks!

Send a message like "Please move ISBN from here to here / Remove ISBN from here" and they'll do it in a few minutes/hours.

But I checked ISBNs from the link you posted, it seems correct. ISBN10 and ISBN13 correspond to each other. You can check them here

Huh, but I only entered ISBN13... Does GR has a functionality that puts ISBN10 automatically when only ISBN13 is entered? But the other books I entered with only ISBN don't seem to have their ISBN10 populated, which is strange.

Anyway, given that the info seems correct, I'll leave them. Thanks.

Olga Silvertongue (olgasilvertongue) | 6723 comments Yes, it does. And I noticed that it started adding ISBN10 when I add a new book.
