Welcome!
Hello, Russellklyford, 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) 12:16, 9 March 2024 (EST)
Emergent Mars
I accepted your addition of Emergent Mars, but had to make some changes:
- The ISFDB has specific title case rules. I changed the case to "Emergent Mars".
- Prices need to be entered with the currency symbol as we deal in multiple currencies.
- We do not record page numbers for ebooks.
- We can only use images from sites that have explicitly given us permission to do so. See ISFDB:Image linking permissions for a list of such sites.
- The Goodreads ID should only be the number.
We appreciate your submission & hope you will continue to contribute. 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). -- JLaTondre (talk) 12:18, 9 March 2024 (EST)
Reviews
Hi, reviews are to be entered in the medium (magazine, webzine) that they are published in, whereupon either our software or a editor/moderator can link the review to the title. Reviews are not to be entered with the book itself.--Dirk P Broer (talk) 07:46, 6 April 2024 (EDT)
