For major contributors, moderators, verifiers, taggers and voters since May 2006, see the ISFDB Statistics and Top Lists page.
What follows is a list of major contributors to the ISFDB until May 2006. This is a rough order rounded to nearest 5000 titles:
Contributions | User | Notes |
50,000 | Al von Ruff | These were entries from various encyclopedias that were pounded in via keyboard. |
50,000 | Dissembler | This was a webbot that cruised numerous sites and populated the database. Dissembler entered about 95% of all the data entered in the ISFDB in 2003–2006. |
20,000 | NESFA database | The NESFA database is also part of the Locus Index through 1989. This was the first major database merged with the ISFDB. |
15,000 | Michael J. Cross database | Mike's database was the 3rd major database to be integrated. Mike also contributed a ton of UK magazines, and probably 40% of all the review data. |
15,000 | David G. Grubbs | The ISFDB started as an awards database, and our initial release was heavily populated with titles from David's award database. |
15,000 | User Submissions | These were entered primarily in 1996–1999. |
10,000 | John Boston database | John's database was the 2nd major database to be integrated. John also entered a ton of books as forthcoming books editor. |
5,000 | Cary Thomas | Cary supplied 15–20 years worth of Analog and Astounding magazine data. |
