Welcome!

Hello, Goathunter, 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! Mhhutchins|talk 22:36, 27 December 2015 (UTC)

Cover art credit for the French ed. of King Kong

If the source for the cover art credit of this publication is from the book itself, please do a primary verification of the record. If not, please add the source for the credit in the record's Note field. Thanks for contributing. Mhhutchins|talk 22:38, 27 December 2015 (UTC)

Mystery Walk

Re this record: I had to remove the link you added to an image on a non-permitting website. We must have explicit permission from another website to "deep link" to files on their server. Also, since you primary verified the record, you should add the page count and the price if printed on the book. Thanks for contributing. Mhhutchins|talk 23:15, 23 January 2016 (UTC)

The image which you uploaded is too large. The ISFDB standard states that the image must not be more than 600 pixels tall. I will resize it and replace the current image. Please keep this in mind for future uploads. Thanks. Mhhutchins|talk 02:25, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

Thanks. Sorry, I should have done more reading before updating. I run Robert McCammon's website, so I'll try to beef up his entries here over the next few months. Goathunter 02:30, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
Thank you for choosing to contribute to the ISFDB as an editor. Adding and updating publication records in the ISFDB is not a simple process. We don't expect all editors to get it right the first time, and we know it may take some time to learn the ins and outs, and all of the tricks. Please be patient with us as we guide you through this process. Together we can build a better database. The best piece of advice I can offer is to take some time to read this help page. It has instructions on how to enter each field of a publication record. If you need further assistance, don't hesitate to inquire at the help desk. Again, thank you for becoming a vital part of the ISFDB. Mhhutchins|talk 02:57, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
