Welcome!
Hello, Mrobby10, 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! Stonecreek 18:35, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
The War of the Worlds and Other Novels
Thank you very much for adding this OMNIBUS!
Regarding the publisher: I have changed this field to 'Barnes & Noble Books', since this is what we have already established in the database. However, amazon does state the publisher as Sterling. Is that anyhow reflected in your copy?
Regarding the art credits: This field is reserved for the cover artist, who best is represented by his canonical name. So I have moved the details to the notes field. (Before that the credits looked like that:
•Cover: Front cover painting: Lewis Yetter / SuperStock
•Cover2: Line art by Paul Girard
•Cover3: Cover design by Jo Obarowski
because the software automatically transfers your input into names.) But thanks again for contributing! Stonecreek 18:43, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
I also merged the respective novels with the ones already there. Stonecreek 18:49, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
- I removed the link to a cover image file hosted on a non-permitting web server. It was replaced by the file on Amazon. Because we "deep-link" to images on another server it is important that we have permission to do so. Here is a list of those who have given us permission. Thanks. Mhhutchins 14:23, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
