Welcome!

Hello, SteveBurt, 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! Mhhutchins 03:09, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

Wicked Strange

There's a few problems with the submission to add a record for this collection, so I'm going to make the following changes.

  • You gave "Jolyn Joslin" as the author, when it's obviously Steve Burt.
  • Publication date was changed to 2014-08-13, based on the Amazon listing.
  • Price field was missing currency, so "$" was added.
  • Publication format was changed from "pb" to "tp" (at 9 inches tall this is a trade paperback).
  • Cover image URL was changed from the Amazon web page to link to the actual file of the cover.

Here is the corrected record. Thanks for contributing. Mhhutchins 03:16, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

I just noticed that there was already a record for this publication in the database. You should have just updated it. No worries. I'll delete the duplicate record. Mhhutchins 03:23, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

More submissions, same errors

Please read the help pages linked in the Welcome section above. In the meantime, I'll correct the errors. Please use them as guides to future submissions. Thanks for contributing. Mhhutchins 03:31, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

Website links on title records

When adding a website link to a title record, the link must be specific to the title, and not to the author. Since there's already a link to the author's website on the ISFDB author summary page, it's not necessary to add it to the titles. Thanks. Mhhutchins 03:37, 22 December 2014 (UTC)
