And if it weren't an Italian translation of the same book (see my edit and link above), that might be something needing fixing by author disambiguation. NOT deletion.

Flora wrote: "As for 408, I did not delete any book, merely combined a book with its other editions."

If that is true, the link should still work (book IDs are not changed by combining, only lost when deleted). And it does not.

And the other one linked in 407 is a Japanese translation of the same book.

Tiffany | 125 comments Hola.

Please delete http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13... (needs a super). It was added by a user, and the correct edition is already in the database.

Thanks.

Kathleen (kathleenburk) | 17 comments I need a super to delete this book: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28...

It doesn't have valid publication information and there are other editions.

It's a music-CD, not a book.

vicki_girl | 2764 comments Re 418, I marked it as "Not a Book"

Probably because it imported from an external database, and if deleted, could import again.

However, the "mark as not a book" link banishes it a bit more permanently, and I used that on it.

Renske | 12220 comments The first book from 404 is not yet done.

I see no reason to assume it's not an alternate-cover edition.

Goodreads policy is not to remove out-of-print books, just as a library would not remove them from its shelves.

message 416: by Wendy (new)

Wendy Bertsch (philosophe) I need the help of a super librarian here. The following two books are identical, per the author:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/95...

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

The second is the listing that should be deleted.
Thank you for your help.

message 420: by Shoujo85 (new)

Shoujo85 | 1 comments I created this book http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13... before realising it should've been added as an edition of this book http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/23... instead.
So I tried to create another edition of the existing book using the 'add a new edition' function but instead is somehow created yet ANOTHER separate book http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13... .
Please delete both versions of the book I created and add them as an edition of the existing one (the title for the new edition should be 'Love for Venus', not 'Venus in Love' and the ISBN 13 is 9789812601995). Thanks, and sorry for the trouble!


message 421: by Moloch (new)

Moloch | 3975 comments Please, delete this duplicate

Thanks

message 424: by Andrea (new)

Andrea (andrea_b) | 571 comments I think that these 3 editions are one and the same (but the minor two have been listed more than 5 times...)

Re 438: Looking at the change log, it appears to be an incorrectly rescued Kindle edition.


message 427: by Elke (new)

Elke (misspider) | 88 comments If I Had A Hammer
I could not find publication details for this short story alone, apart from its ocurrence in the anthology Home Improvement: Undead Edition. So my suggestion is to remove the short story as a standalone work, or at least remove the cover photo which definitely belongs to the anthology.

Merged 440 into its anthology.

message 433: by Mel (new)

Mel (mel_b) Please delete this book: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/81...

I believe it was once added and never revised when the book came out (and in stead a new book was added for it).


message 434: by Tom (new)

Tom | 73 comments Please delete. It originally had incorrect spelling of author's name with no isbn.

zap!


message 436: by Noah (new)

Noah (noahjaybee) Please delete this book: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/82...

There is an extra listing with Mike Myers as the author, which is incorrect. He wrote the foreword and is credited on the cover of the book. The main listing can add him as an author if necessary, but this listing should be removed before more people start adding it to their shelves and reviewing it.


message 439: by vicki_girl (last edited May 09, 2012 10:06AM) (new)

vicki_girl | 2764 comments RE #446: The edition has a valid ISBN. It looks like it was assigned to a book that got cancelled or delayed. Since it may get reassigned at some point, I am going to leave it for now.

RE #449: That book has a valid ISBN. I corrected the author and combined with the other editions.

RE #450: Zapped.

ETA: Someone got #451

Got 451.


message 441: by Tom (new)

Tom | 73 comments This duplicate can be canceled. And the whole enchilada needs to be combined. Every edition is separate.
