Need Super to Help Separate Wrong Most Popular Editions

[Vicky]

This Edition of the Mouse in the Motorcycle is actually a teaching guide for the book, and needs to be separated. See WorldCat and Perfection Learning's Site.

Unfortunately it's the most popular edition with 11k reviews that are for the novel and not the teacher's guide, so I suppose it needs a super to delete it and merge the reviews and then be re-imported?

Here's another one - 9780790780009 is the DVD version of Life of Mammals, and is the most popular edition with a ton of reviews about the book.

I was going to just NAB it, but thought it might be better to merge the reviews and re-import.

[Vicky]

9781561371990 another teacher's guide as the most popular edition.

You can't separate the most popular edition, but you can separate all other editions from it.

Takes a bit longer to process, but the outcome is the same (just tried it with the "Mouse & Motorcycle" book).

[Vicky]

Yes, but there are 11k reviews with the teacher's guide of The Mouse and the Motorcyle that belong with the novel and not the teacher's guide.

A super can merge the book so the reviews stay where they belong and then the book can be re-imported by ISBN, which is why I posted here and didn't do it myself.

Re Msg 1 - This may need GR Engineering help or maybe rivka super powers - whenever I try to delete it errors out - Suspect too many reviews.

Re Msg 2 - Vicky, I am not seeing where this is a DVD can you clarify

And Msg 3 - Done

1 out of 3 not great :)

I'm having this problem with ALL deletions I try. :S

I think there must be a problem with the GR deletion server or something...

[Paula]

I managed it with mgs 3 deleted and re imported no problems weird

[Vicky]

2 - Huh, I didn't even notice it was labeled as Hardback. But I'm pretty certain it's a DVD, it's published by BBC Video as opposed to BBC Books like the other editions & WorldCat lists the format as DVD Video.

The book is in reality a DVD, you can see that when you look up the ASIN on Amazon.
Updated the info.

It seems to be gone now. When there are many reviews, sometimes the deletion goes through, but not immediately.
