Empress (the_empress) Hello.

I found a Spanish book that has wrong ISBN. The ISBN is for the Arabic edition but I do not see Arabic edition in the GR database.

My question is [since I'm suspect people have shelved this Spanish edition], should I change the data in the Spanish edition with the Arabic one

OR

remove the ISBN and create A NEW edition

{I'm leaning toward the second suggestions, but want to be sure)

Thank you

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments Depends on the situation. If the record was incorrectly edited then it depends on when it was edited, and how many people have shelved it since then.

Links, perhaps?

Empress (the_empress) Sure give me a second.

This is the book. This isbn leads to this edition: http://www.amazon.com/Feeling-What-Ha...

I see 20 people have rated this edition

Deon (deonva) | 3718 comments The rename from Arabic to Spanish was Jan 2012.
out of the 20 who shelved it, 0 have been after the change.

this leans toward reverting the changes
the Spanish edition has already been added.

Yes I noticed the Spanish edition as well. Will revert now.

Thank you Deon

Edit: I see the change, I was looking the log only for "this edition".
