Yes. bip! (why not?)
Thanks rivka, I think this is another: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/49...
Invalid ISBN, same cover, etc. Thanks!
Yeah, this needs a super:http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/95...
Needs author fixed and combined first though (my poor little netbook will not be able to handle Shakespeare's combine page)

ASINs don't show on the new book page. :(

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/38... is a duplicate of http://www.goodreads.com/book/edit/76.... Please delete #3870660Thanks!
Needs a super to delete: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/44...This appears to be a manually added version of http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18...

Yup, they messed up the ISBN on that one, didn't they. Zap!
I need a super to delete http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/94... .It's a manually (and very badly) added duplicate of http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/60...I tried to fix the data, and did, to a point, before I realized it was already in the database, properly listed too.
Lee, we keep placeholders until there are official editions available to merge them with.
Need a super to merge this and delete (*I THINK*). http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/72...
Author was down wrong. I think there's a matching edition.
Mod
Yes, and happily it was the most popular one, so that was easy.
Thanks rivka :)Also, not sure what to do about this. It looks like to me there are three duplicate editions the user added of the same "book." I'm for keeping one, but think the others should go. Would like another opinion though.

Is this NAB? http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/95...
I did a title search and nothing else came up. The author kind of looks like those CDs but not quite...
The description claims it is an audio cassette.
Well, for starters, the title is spelled incorrectly. It's First Love, Last Rites. It's a collection of short stories by Ian McEwan, published by Jonathan Cape. I'm assuming this is basically a book on tape.
Ok, so this user has three books shelved with the author as "Unknown." It looks like they just...forgot the author. What to do? Since there's absolutely no other information other than the title, do we just combine with the most popular book by that title and delete? http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/...

Also, I think there may be some repetition in the character list, but I'm not familiar enough with the book to be sure.
I'm not familiar with the book (too sad), otherwise I would check it out. These two editions need to be deleted by a super. You may want to comb through the other editions, I saw a few others that are probably also deletable (got some myself, what is it about certain books?)
