Welcome!

Hello, Gwilbanks, 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! Hauck 13:32, 2 February 2018 (EST)

When Darkness Comes

Hello, I've approved your submission but had to make some changes to conform to our standards:

• changed publisher to yourself (we do not consider CreateSpace as a "real" publisher, just a service provider).
• added currency symbol (I supposed USD).
• changed artist to Allison Wilbanks as per amazon look-inside, we credit only the cover artist (here the photographer) and not the cover designer.
• uploaded a cover scan into our system.

The result is here, don't hesitate to add any relevant data and thanks for contributing. Hauck 13:39, 2 February 2018 (EST)

A Life of Adventure

I accepted A Life of Adventure, but I converted the record to the ebook. Since the print version doesn't have a page at Amazon, B&N, etc, it is better to list the version which does. We have been seeing significant delays in print books due to the on-going impacts of the pandemic. Once the print version is listed at Amazon or another store, you are welcome to resubmit it. Please double check the ebook record. Thanks. -- JLaTondre (talk) 10:13, 27 June 2020 (EDT)

They

I approved your submission for They, but you need to fix some things. First, put a dollar sign before the price, after all it might be £ or € or ¥ or C$ or something else. Always give the units under price. Second, fill in the format. The publisher's site says its a paperback, and at this price, it's unlikely to be a trade paperback, but is likely a mass market paperback (pb). And it appears the publisher has a pub series, Short Reads, that this pub is part of. Enter that as well. It may be a novel or it may be a novella, with less than 100 pages, it's hard to tell. But there are a bunch of Ace Doubles in the data base that are just as short, but labelled as novels, so leave it at that. After you fix this one up, you might clone it for the e-book. It is unusual and unfortunate they don't give an ASIN for the e-book, but such is life. Bob 14:45, 21 May 2021 (EDT)
