Welcome!

Hello, Fabiofcentamore, and welcome to the ISFDB Wiki! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Note: Image uploading isn't entirely automated. You're uploading the files to the wiki which will then have to be linked to the database by editing the publication record.

Please be careful in editing publications that have been primary verified by other editors. See Help:How to verify data#Making changes to verified pubs. But if you have a copy of an unverified publication, verifying it can be quite helpful. See Help:How to verify data for detailed information.

I hope you enjoy editing here! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will insert your name and the date. If you need help, check out the community portal, or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! -- JLaTondre (talk) 21:10, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

Corrections to your recent submissions

I've made corrections to your submissions to add publication records based on ISFDB entry standards. The help pages explaining those standards are linked in the Welcome section above.

  • Amazon's ASIN is not a catalog number and shouldn't be given in the ISBN/Catalog # field. You have the option to record it in the Note field.
  • Price field should give the publisher's list price, not Amazon's sale price.
  • Ebooks don't have pages (unless they're in the PDF format), so the Page Count field should be blank. You have the option to record the print length in the Note field.
  • A publication which contains more than one work of short fiction by the same author should be typed as COLLECTION. If it has a single work of short fiction (less than 40,000 words), it should be typed as CHAPBOOK. When a book is typed as COLLECTION or CHAPBOOK, you should add its contents as well.
  • You should not link a commercial website (like Amazon) when submitting a publication record to the database.
  • The title of a publication should be identical to the title as published on the book's title page. For example, the book you titled Keep Cool: Science Fiction adventures, short stories of future worlds actually gives the title as Keep Cool and Other Rejected Flash Stories on its title page. (Standard capitalization rules apply. See the links above.)

Please look at this record and this one as guides for future submissions, as well as reading through this field-by-field guide to creating and updating publication records. Thanks for contributing. Mhhutchins|talk 20:27, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
