Welcome!
Hello, Washingtone, 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.

ISFDB Scope
The ISFDB is a database about written speculative fiction. Speculative fiction is defined as science fiction, fantasy, and supernatural horror. I had to reject your recent submissions as they were nonfiction unrelated to speculative fiction. Please check out our project scope and rules of acquisition detailed here. You are welcome to submit books that meet the criteria spelled out in that policy. Thanks. -- JLaTondre (talk) 13:41, 6 January 2024 (EST)
