Please delete this book! (pt. 9)
http://www.goodreads.com/book/edit/79...There is no author names Star Wars and also I couldn't find anything about this book on internet. Need a superlibrarian to delete it.

I found and fixed this, it's a boxed set. :)

That shouldn't get deleted. It's imported from B&N so if it did get deleted then it would just pop back up. I found the correct title, it's Timaeus (finally two semesters of greek come in handy!) and I've changed the title.

The ISBN10 may be incorrect, as when I searched bn.com with it, it didn't come up, but on a lark tried the 13 and that did the trick.
Found several duplicates of Lost City of Z that need to be deleted:http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10...

I combined it with the correct book (David Grann, not Donald Gramm) and deleted.

Thanks. I found six more and added them to the post.
Was already working on those Alexander :) Gimme a few
One of these needs to be deleted, but I'm not sure which one:http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10...
Logically it would be 10822174, but that's the one that contains ISBN info, whereas 10342332 has the proper title but lacks the ISBN data.
A huge number of people have confused this with the actual book. Wouldn't it make sense to merge this one, and have a super delete both editions? http://www.goodreads.com/work/edition...
Those two are duplicate books;http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...

Orginal (combined one) here;

Need a super-librarian.
Someone got 479. I fixed 480. I'm letting others weigh in on 478. I'll look at it later.

I vote to keep it. Can't help it if people can't read, and it'll just reimport anyway.

After looking at it - I agree. merged then added back.
Merged with the correct edition and added back with the others.
This is the main listing for the editions:http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/66...
It's missing ISBNs and etc. and the cover shows a different title.
Not sure if it gets deleted or not....
Thanks Melody and Jessica. I have one here that says the ISBN is taken already. There is another listing with the same title but they have different covers? http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/78...
I'm working through a members books who listed a bunch of DVDs and I'm trying to grab what I can elsewhere when I see it...
I didn't know what to do with this one though.
This one is coming up as an English/Persian Dict. for me but I can't read Persian so I can't be sure. Maybe someone will want to take a look. It's merged with Plath's The Bell Jar but no ISBN.

I didn't see where it says the ISBN is already taken, but it's probably an alternate cover so I'd keep it.
Please delete this book, http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/27...
I don't believe it ever existed, and we already have on here the two different cover editions that were published by Hodder Children's books. The link to the amazon.com site brings up this book with no cover, that nobody ever bought.

Phil, if we deleted it, it would just get reimported from Amazon since it has an ISBN. The only other option is to NAB it, which in this case since it's clearly associated with a title I wouldn't want to. It could be a special printing, or a future printing, etc. I'm leaving it as is.

Ok no problem, didn't realise that it would just get reimported from Amazon. Thanks.

Yeah, drives me crazy when I see all of the "Untitled" books out there that never got published. Can't zap those either :( You'd think the publishers wouldn't assign ISBNs willy-nilly, but they do...
How annoying! Oh well guess we'll just have to put up with a load of books on here that never saw the light of day :(

But don't NAB if there are reviews! Merge with another edition.
The author would like this "book" deleted http://www.goodreads.com/book/edit/11... It's a short story he wrote for an event we're having in our group and one of our members uploaded it to Goodreads without his permission. I can't delete it and I'm not sure whether or not he can. Would one of you super librarians please delete it?
Thanks!
I'm not sure if this should be deleted. Not quite sure what it is? Placeholder that wasn't used? http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/99...
this book has the 10 isbn in the 13 isbn spothttp://www.goodreads.com/book/show/31...
should be merged with...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/43...
Looks like someone already got 506 & 507.
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...<-there is no kindle version,
only ebook->
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/88...
Please delete this book as it's not even close to being published yet and the ISBN 13 actually belongs to an edition of Illusions (Wings, #3) by Aprilynne Pike that I am currently reading and was trying to add as a new book, as that edition isn't on Goodreads.http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/86...
Got 509 and cleaned up the rest of that authors books.
I can only get it to come up as a copy of Illusions, but as 36 people have added it, I'll leave it be except for deleting the ISBN.I'm assuming you'll be adding it as an edition of Illusions.
