Welcome!
Hello, Samaccat, 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 02:25, 17 November 2017 (EST)
Your recent uploads
Hello, I saw that you tried to upload a cover Image, likely to link it to a certain publication. But as we do need some sort of legal clearance for displaying images of copyrighted works , it is best to use the semi-automated procedure as described in 'Help: How to upload images to the ISFDB wiki' (see above).

Author images
When including a URL for an author photo, we must only link to sites which have been approved (see the list here). I have rejected your submission because it links to a site (Goodreads) that doesn't allow "hotlinking". Feel free to download the image and follow the directions here to upload it to ISFDB. Please let me know if you have any questions. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 17:15, 16 December 2021 (EST)
