Got it -- I assume you can recombine it with the other editions for this book?
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13... needs to go, as a duplicate of http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/94...Apparently someone tried to fit an ISBN-13 into ISBN-10 field. It did not work.
Hi guys, is it possible for someone to merge both of the following book records?http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...
and
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...
I am actually the author of the book, and I'm trying to link my account with the record. I seem to have inadvertently made a new record!
If somebody can help I would really appreciate it!
Re 575 There are a number of authors with your name - you are Mike^^Berry (where ^=space) so when adding books add two spaces between your names to get the book on your profile.
I have changed and combined the books - is there only one edition, the Kindle?
That's great, and incredibly efficient - thanks a bunch!There is also a paperback version that I need to add, but hopefully that won't be a problem now, as long as I remember the two spaces in my name. BTW, are the two spaces my own doing? Did I add an extra one when I made my profile, or has the system done that to differentiate me from other Mike Berrys?
Thanks again for your help,
Mike Berry (one of several, apparently!)
Generally librarians will add spaces when we find profiles with multiple authors - but since you are a GR Author - I would suspect whoever "authorised" your author profile from GR would have added the spaces.You will need to combine the editions which I don't think you can do - if you post back once the paper back edition added some one can combine for you
Please delete this: We, the Drowned
which had isbn in Asin Field. I'd removed it last week but undid that action so that I could correctly identify the book that needed deleting.
I've already separated and combined with edition with same isbn
Please delete http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/63...which is a duplicate entry of
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...
This one: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/62... can go in favor of the correct one: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12... I think
please delete:http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...
and then combine the remaining book withUglies
Sorry! I tried but requires a super librarian because of the high number of comments. Current location is http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...This volume needs to be deleted because it was added with English as the language for a Spanish language volume.
Got 586 and 587. Someone else must have gotten 588.

You will find that is true of almost every book posted in this thread for deletion. That is its primary purpose.
Can a super librarian merge this bookhttp://www.goodreads.com/book/show/64...
with this book
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/19...
The first one has all the reviews but none of the isbn info. They are already combined. Thanks!

the deletion request is correct, but the reasoning just off the mark.
no book should be deleted just because the language is wrong. it's easily fixed by any librarian.
books only deleted because of a double entry.
This one is Not A Book (it's a music album)http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...
Should I NAB it or can it be deleted now that Amazon is gone?
Please delete, duplicates:http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

Need a super librarian to delete this book:http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...
It's a duplicate with a misspelled title.
Thanks!
I think this one should be deletedhttp://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...
Seems like it's a duplicate of this one:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...

I don't understand why that book should be deleted?! Are you saying it isn't to be published?

It's been pulled from the publisher and has been removed from amazon and the publisher's website, so it should probably also be removed from here, too.
If it has been published and by the looks of it one person at least has read and reviewed it then it should stay.This is a book cataloging site, if the book was pulled from the publisher etc but was in the library it would not be pulled from there.
If the book has never been published or ARC's given out then that is a different case
Can a super delete these 3 books: * http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...
* http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...
* http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...
The author was misspelled and they have no isbns, I've corrected & merged them with the proper editions.
Oh, and this one is not a book, just the author's name (wrong spelling again): http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...
There's no book by Bapsi Sidhwa called 'Mister Candy'. Please delete this book!http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...
Re 612 - its another name for Ice Candy Man and worldcat has a listing for it - so it should stay
My author dashboard is missing two novels of mine and one piece of short fiction, and has a work on there entitled “Panic, Passion, and Power” that is by another Paul Dyer. Can one of the librarians please fix this. Thanks for your help.
I moved the Panic, Passion and Power. You should be able to add books to your profile. If they need to be moved from another site - then please post links.

That link is for the kindle edition. I combined it with the other ebook edition.
They have the same ASIN number. The ebook just has it entered as an ISBN
