These books have the same ISBN.
Got all of Jeanette's batch
These have more than 10 reviews, so I think they need a super librarian to delete them (they had a spelling mistake in the author's name that I just fixed, and then combined with real editions).Gravity
The Apprentice
Hi Nancy,I took care of it. But it shouldn't have been simply deleted. There were actually no ratings yet for it; it must have been added to someone's to-read list. BUT: what was needed was first to change the author to the correct author (this book had just the last name, misspelled) and then it needed to be combined with the other editions of the book, AND then I was able to delete this edition so that it merged with the most rated edition of the book.
Thanks for your help, Lisa. I thought about correcting it first, but I don't think it had a valid ISBN either and I wasn't sure if it should be merged.

and it will combine with this which you should combine back with the other editions of The Count of Monte Cristo
Melody, Got all but one of yours. One has ISBNs and different from any other in the database that I could fine, including other 2007 edition(s).Jeanette, You're correct. Deleted it.
Edit: Melody, However, I've never seen you to be wrong, so I'll check it again when I'm back later in the day. ☺
Jeanette, got the biography
Certain Girls can certainly go.Begone, A Long Way Gone. (It looks like this one picked up so many reviews by being a common misspelling of the author's name, Ishmeal for Ishmael.)
Lisa,Well I'm wrong this time. I could have sworn I saw another copy with the ISBN - but I can't find it now!
But this or should I say It should be deleted.
Got it
I've tried deleting these twice over a few days, but they're just not going away. I do have librarian status. I'm going in to edit the book information and then clicking "delete this book" at the bottom of the screen. As far as I can tell, no one has reviewed or even shelved these. What am I doing wrong?They're "Free Airframe Poster" and "Free Timeline Poster" under Michael Crichton.

JG, I think I was able to delete them. The system can sometimes be a little funny about deleting books.
Please delete Empress Orchid and Remember meDelete this copy of Remember me
Then put this one back with the other editions of Remember me
Then delete Dreamworld of a Shopaholic. It will combine with the right edition.
Melody, I go that last batch. Thanks so much for all the pre-work that you did; it made those deletions so easy!
Gone Gone. I had to change the author (from Perrotta, Tom to Tom Perrotta) for TAT. Funny, I had just done one of those and combined those books, but it looked as though I needed to do it; maybe it was another one? Anyway, both of those editions (OCB & TAT) are deleted.
I changed Perrotta, Tom to Tom Perrotta about 5 times! It wouldn't stay! Very strange! I checked the librarian edits to see if someone was changing it back and there were no records or any edits. This one needs deleting: At Risk
At Risk no more
This is a Nancy Drew Journal (not a book). I combined it with the corresponding book but can't delete because it has 19 reviews!
Got 1 each Melody & Kisholi and re-created the journal.
