Leenchen Hi,

I wanted to edit the Information at the Ebook-Edition of Sterne über Tauranga and changed the ISBN which I found at the Publishing Homepage, after saving it, it says, there is allready a book with this ISBN, I checked it and found 4 Editions of the Book uncombined.
I combined them and looked closer to it and found out, that one of the Ebooks has a mistake at the Title (german Umlaut).
Sterne uber Tauranga: Neuseeland-Roman and Sterne über Tauranga are the same, but the first one is written with "u" and not the "ü" (and has this stupid "Roman" in the Title too).

Right now, I really don't know what to do. As far as I know, there is only one Ebook-Edition published. So one of them should be deleted right? But befor I delete something, I wanted to ask, if I am right or if I just oversee something.

Thx for the Help

vicki_girl | 2764 comments One of those books has an ASIN, meaning it is a Kindle edition. The other has a unique ISBN for other ebook formats. They both need to stay. However, the first one without the umlaut needs to have the title information corrected. If you are uncomfortable doing it yourself, post back here and someone will get it.

Just so you know, we almost never change the ISBN on a record. If the data doesn't match the ISBN, we change the data to be correct for that ISBN. We don't change the ISBN to match the data. :)


Leenchen I think I understand what you mean. So the Version of the Publishing House may not be the same as the Kindle-Version, thats why there can be more than one Ebook-Version, right?

I would change the Titles, delete the "Roman" and correct the Spelling, so it can be found for Searchers.

Thx
