Welcome!

Hello, Debilc, 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) 18:26, 13 October 2020 (EDT)

Delicate

I accepted your addition of Delicate, but had to make some changes to match ISFDB standards:

  • Format: I changed the format to trade paperback. Based on author's website and Amazon, this is not a hardback.
  • Price: I added the US currency symbol. As we record books from all countries, the currency is required to show which currency.
  • Cover Image: I changed the image source to Amazon. We can only use images from sites that have explicitly given us permission to do so. See ISFDB:Image linking permissions for a list of such sites.
  • Publication Web Pages: I removed these link. The author's website link belongs at the title level (and was already submitted there). The software will automatically generate links to booksellers in the left menu.
  • Data Source: I changed the data source to Amazon. While you had specified the author's website, many of the details you entered were not found on the author's website (date, price, cover artist, etc.). As such, I changed to Amazon since they can be found there (either directly or via Amazon Look Inside).

We appreciate your submission & hope you will continue to contribute. ISFDB has some conventions that need learning so please check out the help links in the welcome message above. And let us know if you have any questions (ISFDB:Help desk is a good resource for asking). -- JLaTondre (talk) 18:26, 13 October 2020 (EDT)

Delicate: The Alchemy of Emily Greyson

You just tried to add this one as a hardcover. However, we already have it as a paperback under the same ISBN and I cannot find the hardcover anywhere online. Can you clarify your source for the existence of the hardcover? Thanks! Annie 04:10, 14 October 2020 (EDT)

I rejected this as a duplicate; if it turns out that there is really a hardcover, we can clone or I can resurrect the submission. Thanks for submitting it anyway. Annie 13:14, 18 October 2020 (EDT)
