Fixer has found a series of self-published books which Amazon lists as "light novels". The title is "Shadow Lord: The Strongest Legendary Hero Is a NEET" and the [https://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/ea.cgi?355431 author's name] sounds Japanese, but I can't find the Japanese originals. There is a related [https://ne-np.facebook.com/people/Soichiro-Yomenagi/100081455943502/?sk=photos Facebook page] in what appears to be [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nepali_language Nepali], but that's not dispositive. Would you happen to have any ideas? TIA! [[User:Ahasuerus|Ahasuerus]] ([[User talk:Ahasuerus|talk]]) 17:06, 9 December 2022 (EST)
 
:Looking at the cover and the interior art, and the fact they are illustrated by "Pablo Santo", I'm guessing these are original English light novels rather than translations of Japanese light novels. It looks like they did their homework, though, and are trying to make them appear to be translated novels. ···[[User:Nihonjoe|<font color="darkgreen">日本穣</font>]] · <small>[[Special:Contributions/Nihonjoe|<font color="blue">投稿</font>]] · [[User talk:Nihonjoe|Talk to Nihonjoe]]</small> 16:37, 12 December 2022 (EST)

Hi Joe, re. [https://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/pl.cgi?904174 this title/publication], I've changed the title type from NOVEL to COLLECTION and added the short fiction and interior art. I've also varianted them to Japanese titles with the correct date however the titles presently remain in English: is it possible you could alter them to their Japanese titles? Thanks. [[User:PeteYoung|PeteYoung]] ([[User talk:PeteYoung|talk]]) 06:50, 24 December 2022 (EST)
 
:Are you sure it's short fiction? Everything I'm finding in Japanese lists it as a novel (same as the first one). The "short stories" you have listed may actually be chapters. ···[[User:Nihonjoe|<font color="darkgreen">日本穣</font>]] · <small>[[Special:Contributions/Nihonjoe|<font color="blue">投稿</font>]] · [[User talk:Nihonjoe|Talk to Nihonjoe]]</small> 19:33, 29 December 2022 (EST)

https://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/pl.cgi?426451; I added Archive link and LCCN, note has Amazon date, the usual fake -01 when they don't know the month or day, but original stories are -00; the book itself says October, not October 1. They really should be the same so it doesn't look like they're reprints. I had an incident recently where some mod complained endlessly about changing Amazon dates to the real one without asking PV first, so you decide what you want to do. --[[User:Username|Username]] ([[User talk:Username|talk]]) 11:43, 24 December 2022 (EST)

== Pending edit for The Chronicles of Narnia ==
 
 
Hi Nihonjoe -
 
 
Could you take a look at [https://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/mod/submission_review.cgi?5475726 this edit] which affects one of your verified publications.  I suspect the editor is removing the overall INTERIOART because they're there for the individual novels.  The publication is also verified by [[User talk:Gzuckier|Gzuckier]], though that is a transient verification. The remaining verifier is inactive.  Also, the was another Narnia omnibus verified by [[User:Biomassbob|Biomassbob]] that I discussed with him earlier today.  He preferred that the overall INTERIORART record not be removed and I rejected that edit based on [[User talk:Biomassbob#Pending edit for The Complete Chronicles of Narnia|that discussion]].  I'm not holding the edit, so you may accept or reject as you wish.  Thanks. --Ron ~ [[User:Rtrace|Rtrace]]<sup>[[User talk:Rtrace|Talk]]</sup> 18:42, 5 January 2023 (EST)

== Forced merges ==
 
 
Hi, you moderated [https://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/view_submission.cgi?5546775 here] and [https://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/view_submission.cgi?5546787 here] and I'm curious as to what happened/went wrong :) The results on the [https://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/ea.cgi?323018 author page] are what I wanted but... I don't understand how Stonecreek merged these two successfully *after* I submitted. Have I got that right? And what does forced mean in this context? Please explain. Thanks, Kev. --[[User:BanjoKev|BanjoKev]] ([[User talk:BanjoKev|talk]]) 15:49, 18 January 2023 (EST)
 
:Sometimes, more than one person can submit an edit for a specific title or publication. Depending on the order in which the submissions are handled, one edit may invalidate another submission. That's probably what happened in this case. When I pulled those two submissions up for reviewing, they were already in an errored-out state and they had to be "hard rejected" (that's what "forced" means). ···[[User:Nihonjoe|<font color="darkgreen">日本穣</font>]] · <small>[[Special:Contributions/Nihonjoe|<font color="blue">投稿</font>]] · [[User talk:Nihonjoe|Talk to Nihonjoe]]</small> 16:00, 18 January 2023 (EST)

https://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/title.cgi?12480; https://archive.org/details/godmakers00pend; ISBN on Archive.org copy's copyright page is different than what's on ISFDB for the 1974 edition but some numbers match the catalog ID of the 1970 edition. Also, shouldn't regular title date of Pendleton be made 1974-02-00 and not 1970-00-00? --[[User:Username|Username]] ([[User talk:Username|talk]]) 20:07, 22 January 2023 (EST)
 
 
:Nihonjoe is an active verifier for the 1974 publication: it's best to ask him about the ISBN (he has to be asked anyway if it is changed). And no, if a title is first published under a pseudonym we variant it to the canonical name and keep the date. Christian [[User:Stonecreek|Stonecreek]] ([[User talk:Stonecreek|talk]]) 12:43, 23 January 2023 (EST)
 
::This is his page; that's why I asked here. Also, the book was published as by Pendleton in 1974 but on ISFDB the regular title date is 1970, the date of the original publication under the pseudonym (and nobody bothered to enter the month, either, which was entered for the 1970 book). So I think what I'm asking is if 1974-02-00 should be the Pendleton title date and not 1970-00-00. Plus the ISBN thing, too.

::::OK. I think I get it now; however, the month should still be added to Pendleton reg. date like it was for pseudonymous book date. ISBN is the only real issue now; date on copyright page in 1974 is different than numbers on cover which match ID of 1970 book. --[[User:Username|Username]] ([[User talk:Username|talk]]) 13:29, 23 January 2023 (EST)
