Welcome!

Hello, Prontho, 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! Linguist 15:08, 9 September 2016 (UTC)

Queros Geschenk

Hello Prontho and welcome again. I had to reject your submission to merge two Queros Geschenk titles, as one was a CHAPBOOK (a container) and the other a SHORTFICTION (a text). You can only merge similar entities (CHAPBOOK with CHAPBOOK, SHORTFICTION with SHORTFICTION, etc.). Linguist 15:12, 9 September 2016 (UTC).

"Asche über Botan"

Hello, and thanks for your next submission. I have rejected it for different reasons :

  1. You can't enter a SHORTFICTION directly : it has to have a container — in this precise cas, a magazine. In order to enter a magazine record, click on "Add New Magazine" (left margin) ans fill up the fields you need.
  2. After approval, you can update the pub record by adding a cover scan, but the one you provided was hosted by a site that we do not have permission to link to. See here for links we are allowed to use. You can also upload your own file from your computer (always after approval).
  3. Once your submission has been approved, you can also update the title of the SHORTFICTION, for instance by entering a synopsis at title level. This synopsis must be in English in this database.
  4. When entering a price, you must also indicate the currency (here, €1.80; note : no comma, but a period).
  5. If this is a genre magazine, then you must enter its entire content.

Please try again, or ask for more explanations on this page or on the one of any moderator ! Linguist 15:54, 9 September 2016 (UTC).
