Welcome!
Hello, Fbonfim, 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 pages
- Field-by-field guide to entering new publications into the database
- 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.
- Wiki Conventions - How things are usually done on this wiki.
- Help:How to upload images to the ISFDB wiki
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) 08:42, 3 April 2021 (EDT)
Adak
I accepted your addition of Adak, but made changes to match ISFDB standards:
- Publisher: When a book does not state a publisher name and it is self-published, we use the author's name.
- Format: Per Amazon supplied dimensions, we categorize this as a "tp" (trade paperback).
- Image: When using image URLs from Amazon, the underscores & everything between them need to be removed.
- ASIN: You entered the print version, but added the ASIN for the ebook version. We enter these as separate records.
- Synopsis: When copying a synopsis, the source needs to be stated. I added it is from the back cover.
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). Thanks. -- JLaTondre (talk) 08:42, 3 April 2021 (EDT)
