Hello, Bridotf, 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:

- Help:Getting Started
- What the ISFDB Wiki is for
- FAQ
- Wiki editing help - Tips on how to use the wiki-specific features when editing wiki pages.

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) 15:09, 11 September 2022 (EDT)
Domes of Fire
A few notes on this one:
- "This paperback edition 1995" refers most likely to the first printing of the book. If it was for the printing, it would say "this printing" or something similar. So I reset the date to 0000-00-00. If you are still think that it is the year of your printing, feel free to update it but based on what I am seeing, this is an edition date, not a printing date.
- 1|1.1 is a very confusing notation for a lot of editors. So instead of doing that, leave numbers alone (they will sort properly on their own) and instead use decimals on the ones that need pipes ([6]|0.1 for example).
Let me know if you have any questions and thanks for adding the book! Annie (talk) 19:46, 23 September 2022 (EDT)
