Next! ;)
Sorry about that weird ISBN one on the old thread, I should have noted that though it was an ISBN-13, the numbers after the 978 were identical to one of the ISBN-10s (the duplicate one also had its own valid ISBN-13) :)
Mod
Very true, I've seen some interesting ones :)Here's a couple more to delete:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/31...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/95... - duplicate ISBN :)
Ashley, Got those 2/combined the latter with its proper edition before deleting.

Deathly Hallows:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15... - duplicate ISBN
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17... - a very interesting solution to the already existing ISBN problem :)
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28... - this one has already been separated out and combined with the correct foreign edition, it just needs to be deleted and then recombined with the rest of the DH books
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/33...

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17... - duplicate ISBN
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/19...
and
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16... - these lest two have the same problem as the DH book - just need to be deleted and the remaining edition recombined with the rest of GoF.
Hmm, there's more than I thought, so I'll leave it at these 3 books for now, thanks guys!
Please merge these three:http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28...
I think they're all the same.
Mod

This Geisha should be deleted it is not a foreign edition - it has just been entered with the title in Arabic
Please delete Veronica Decides to dieAlso combine Veronica Decides to die and Veronica Decides to die and Veronica Decides to die and Veronica Decides to die with Veronica Decides to die
Please delete this. It will combine with the proper copy of the foreign edition.and delete this copy of Brida it will combine with the correct foreign edition.

Hopefully that's all of them, thanks guys!
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13... - one I missed that was with Sorcerer's Stone instead of Chamber of Secrets. Please delete this one, then recombine the remaining edition with CoS, thanks!
this needs to be deleted then the audio cassette with the ISBN 1564066495 needs to be added back as NOT A BOOK
Ok, Think got all the above except for:Melody,
One of the Veronika Decides to Die: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14...
I couldn’t find another edition with exactly this language/wording so I didn’t delete. Show me if I missed it or if it's not the "correct wording" anyway and we're sure it should be deleted.
Also, I'm usually so careful, but I "lost" the description comments in one of the above books. My apologies. In a foreign language and the book was gone before I realized, so I can't even message the person who manually entered the book. ☹
But the rest should be caught up for now.
Next:
Ok, one last Harry :)http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/24...
Came across an author misspelling, it's already combined with the other editions and just needs to be deleted
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/20...It's an empty edition already combined with the proper editions :).
thx
The Boleyn Inheritance:http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/23...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18...
The Other Boleyn Girl:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/32... - this one is odd - the ISBN is 11 digits, and the user who added it put the format as both hardcover and paperback
EDIT: A less popular edition has the ISBN, it seems that the user just added a 0 to the front to make it unique :)
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/33...
The Virgin's Lover:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/29...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16... - duplicate ISBN
Thanks!
Got the various Boleyn books
That Veronica did not have anything to indicate it was a foreign edition or even a seperate edition. The title was just entered in Spanish. Welcome back Michael.
Please delete:
Know It all
Know it all
Melody,Got those last 2 editions.
Well, I know, but that was enough for me as I assume the person who manually entered the edition of VWTD did read it in that language. I'm willing to leave the edition in the database. If another librarian wants to delete it, feel free as my take on the situation might be off.
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/32...http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/25...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28...
One Boleyn Inheritance I missed:http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/25...
And Virgin's Lover:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/32...
I really don't remember seeing those two, but they were added months ago. Hmm. Then on to Jodi Picoult we go:
Nineteen Minutes:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/32... - this one has the 13-digit ISBN that matches the 10-digit on this one: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14... (Using the ISBN converter).
Ashley, I got all the above. Many times editions aren't missed but are newly added as there's new ones being added constantly. It's also easy to miss existing ones; I do it all the time.
This one: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/32... should be deleted so that it combines with http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/20...
Mod
I suspect that these two copies of The Thorn Birds are not correct - there might be more problems, I'm not that good at spotting bad ISBNs. Thanks!http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/20...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/33...
Hmm. Someone got the 2nd one and I just deleted the first one in order to combine it with the other editions; it had no ISBN when I saw it. Looks as though all the above done.Next:
Please delete:There's no place like here
This one should be deleted There's A place called here so that it combines with A place called here
Please delete If you could see me now so that it combines with If you could see me now
Delete this PS I love you
So it combines with PS I love you
Delete this PS I love you so that it combines with PS I love you
Delete Rosie Dunne and
Rosie Dunne
Melody, I got all of these
Please delete this: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18... It will combine with another foreign edition.
Mod
It was me. Sometimes when I'm passing through, as it were, I don't take time to comment. 8)
