I'm curious what people generally consider the best practice for having multiple versions of a book.

Not just different formats of the same text, but actually different versions like maybe the book was re edited years later and/or different publisher, or it was a book that originated in another language and you have different translations of it (like a Japanese light novel that may of had a fan translation then years later they get official translations or was translated officially by different people/publishers years apart).

Their the same book name from the same series (if applicable) but even if all versions were different formats you still wouldn't want them as alternate file types in the same entry.

Do you just add them separately, with the same name/author/title/series and try to distinguish them with tags (like "Re Edited", "Fan Translation" etc)?

Do you try to avoid duplicate versions at all costs and split duolicates into different libraries if you still want to have access to them, keeping what you consider the best version in your main library?

Thanks!
