I tried and couldn't. A higher up librarian has to make the change. I agree that it is a duplicate.

Amara, just noticed, that's weird that he was able to change that. He's not a librarian or a GR author.

Thank you so much for your help in deleting the duplicate book.
Please, delete this one: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/79...I checked ISBN and I discovered it's a DVD, not to mention it has wrong author.
This book and this book appear to be the same book - one is using the ISBN 10 and one is using the ISBN 13 (I checked - one is the conversion for the other). Since the records are in Dutch I've put off merging the ISBN's to one record - just in case.
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/91...messed up ISBN 10 that is a duplicate of the most popular edition.
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/38...another typod ISBN 10 that matches the most popular edition.
I have 4 paper back books from small publisher, published between 1985 and 1989None of them has ISBN numbers.
Does it mean they are not books?
The author is Jim Fogg, I did a quick Google and only one is being sold at various sites

ISBN standard would not yet have been implemented*. They most certainly are books. Even today there are books published without ISBNs that are still allowed on the site (not quite as common, but they exist). Second even if it's out of print we still keep their listing because Goodreads is a catalogue not a bookseller.
*Strictly speaking not entirely correct. Yet the idea still stands.

Not sure why you think it should be deleted. That edition actually exists. Removed the SKU though.
This is a single issue of a magazinehttp://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...

no isbn, only a barcode

I'm a little confused by it. I guess Baen Books has a download separate from a nook or kindle edition that you can purchase directly for them.
No ISBN edition basically.
Is that what you are getting from this?

Yup.

Magazines are discouraged, but I don't think we openly delete them. This one needs some editing to be presentable though.
Please ..These books :
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/79...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14...
need to be deleted after being merged with this one
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10...
They are all the same edition of the same translation .
and Thanks a lot :)
Please merge this edition (cropped ISBN) http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15... into the correct one: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...
thanks!
Can you please delete this book? http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...
It has not been published yet and it may never be published. I don't want any more people to add it to their to-read list, in case it never comes to pass.
Please delete this book:http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...
It was solicited, but never written. (I prefer to work with publishers who sign a contract with me before soliciting the book.)
Mod
Edit: Does not appear so. merging into the collection in which it was published.
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...ISBN 10 should be this: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/34...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10...appears to be a messed up isbn of this:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/32...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/94...
appears to be a duplicate of the above as well.
Please delete this one:http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...
It should be Eugenides and this book already exists. And this edition has only the title.
