Goodreads Librarians Group discussion

Hello! Could a Goodreads Librarian please help me clean up the following duplicate edition records?

I am the author’s daughter and am helping clean up his Goodreads book records. I tried to use the Separate Tool, but Goodreads says I am not authorized to perform the action.

1. Outdoor Knots by Cliff Jacobson

Edition to KEEP:
ISBN-13: 9781493041947
ISBN-10: 1493041940
ASIN: B07KSMHBB
2019 Kindle edition, 87 pages, 1 rating

Duplicate to REMOVE/MERGE:
ASIN: B0FT6JF1RH
2019 Kindle edition, 87 pages, 0 ratings

These appear to be duplicate records for the same Kindle edition.

2. Basic Illustrated Map and Compass by Cliff Jacobson and Lon Levin

There are several legitimate editions of this book, and I do not want the legitimate editions deleted or merged into one another. I am only asking that the duplicate records be reviewed and merged into the correct corresponding editions.

A. Duplicate Kindle edition

Edition to KEEP:
ASIN: B00V9QVFSK
Kindle edition, 139 pages, April 15, 2008, Falcon Guides, 3 ratings

Duplicate to REMOVE/MERGE:
ASIN: B0FTT7YM59
Kindle edition, 133 pages, April 15, 2008, Falcon Guides, 0 ratings

Both records have the same title, authors, original title (Basic Essentials Map & Compass), series (Basic Illustrated Series), publisher, publication date, format and language. The only apparent difference is the Goodreads page count, 139 vs. 133 pages.

B. Duplicate 2008 paperback records

Correct edition to KEEP:
ISBN-13: 9780762747627
ISBN-10: 0762747625
ASIN: 0762747625
Basic Illustrated Map and Compass (Basic Illustrated Series)
April 15, 2008, Falcon Guides
1st Edition, Paperback, 96 pages
25 ratings

Please review these records as possible duplicate/auto-import records of that same 2008 paperback edition:

B00DWWF63Y — Paperback/Unknown Binding, 0 pages
B01FEKHA6W — Paperback, 0 pages
B011MB8PK2 — Paperback, 0 pages
B013PRD0JM — Paperback, 0 pages
B0085SCZ3Y — Paperback, 96 pages, 0 ratings
B0157JP9T0 — Paperback, 0 pages
B01MSK2N9Z — Paperback, 0 pages
B007YWIPJK — “BASIC ILLUSTRATED MAP AND COMPPB,” Paperback, 0 pages

These appear to be duplicate/auto-import records of the 2008 Basic Illustrated Map and Compass paperback, but I would appreciate a librarian confirming this before merging them.

C. Duplicate 2007 3rd Edition records

Correct edition to KEEP:
ISBN-13: 9780762740161
ISBN-10: 0762740167
ASIN: 0762740167
Basic Essentials Map & Compass
2007, Falcon Pr Pub Co
3rd Edition, Paperback, 82 pages
6 ratings

Please review these additional records as possible duplicates of that same 2007 3rd edition:

B01FGL99PE — Basic Essentials Map & Compass, 3rd, Mass Market Paperback, 0 pages
B011MBH0O4 — Basic Essentials Map & Compass, 3rd, Paperback, 0 pages
B005K62WAU — Basic Essentials Map & Compass, 3rd, Paperback, 96 pages, 0 ratings

Again, please verify before merging, since I don't want to remove a genuinely different edition.

D. 1988 records

There are also two 0-page records for the 1988 edition:

B01K2ILG9I — The Basic Essentials of Map and Compass, Paperback, 0 pages
B01FJ1B1HA — The Basic Essentials of Map and Compass, Mass Market Paperback, 0 pages

There is a legitimate 1988 edition:

ISBN-13: 9780934802420
ISBN-10: 0934802424
The Basic Essentials of Map and Compass
1988, ICS Books, Paperback, 72 pages

I am not asking these to be automatically deleted. Please review whether either 0-page record is simply a duplicate/import of this 1988 edition.

Legitimate editions that should remain separate

Please leave the following legitimate editions intact:

9780762704811 — 1999, 2nd Edition, Paperback
9780762747627 — 2008, Basic Illustrated Map and Compass, Paperback
9780934802420 — 1988, The Basic Essentials of Map and Compass
9780762740161 — 2007, 3rd Edition, Paperback
9781570340567 — 1997, 2nd Edition, Hardcover
9780762714254 — 2001, 2nd Edition, Paperback
9781461745686 — 2008 ebook
9788479027605 — Spanish edition
9789756316108 — Turkish edition

The Spanish and Turkish editions are translations and should remain as their own language editions rather than being treated as duplicate English records.

Thank you very much for helping with this cleanup. I would much rather have a librarian verify the questionable records than accidentally remove a legitimate edition.

I checked the first two and they are already combined. I'm not going to check them all. If you see the other editions under "more editions," they are combined.

As for the different languages, they should be combined.
