Welcome!
Hello, RLeeD, 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 18:14, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
Your recent additions:
Thanks for them. But for future additions, please wait until the first publication is accepted, then it's much easier to use the 'Clone' function for the other publication of the same novel. Also, please do add a more precise date of publication: if you don't have an exact day, the month of publication (for example 2016-03-00 for March of 2016) would be sufficient. In addition, we put currency symbols into the price field, as we have lots of different of them. Finally, the remark "I work for the publisher" doesn't belong into the publication's notes field: that one is reserved for remarks on the publication like print rank, source of the cover art credit, or other prices (see here for an example). But keep them coming! Stonecreek 18:30, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
Your recent submissions
Hello, I concur with Christian please wait for approval so you may use the "Clone This Pub" function. I've approved your latest batch but made some changes:
- Added currency symbols (I suuposed USD) rememeber that we're an international db and that not everyone uses $.
- I changed one Waking Anastazia to Waking Anastasia.
- Trimmed synopsis for Furr our site is not a sales assistant so please avoid to copy blurbs.
- Deleted the "I work for the publisher" bit in the notes.
- Added cover artist for Furr as per amazon.
- Deleted number of pages (meaningless for ebooks).
- Merged titles (novels and covers).
- Deleted PubSeries info (redondant with Series' data at title level).
- Changed "E.C. Bell" to "E. C. Bell" (with space) as is already present in the db.
As you see that all this represent a lot of correction to make, so please take some time to study our help page before submitting another batch. Thanks for contributing. Hauck 18:52, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
