In the Crosshairs
I don't see anything Speculative about this submission, is there any relevant content? BLongley 17:12, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Kathy Reichs/Temperance Brennan books
All of the books in the submissions seem to be crime/mystery. None of the synopses mention anything that we would call speculative/fantastic/Horror/paranormal. Aside from that, the placement of them in a Publication Series is incorrect. Such series are for books related by Publisher, not necessarily author [examples would be the old ACE doubles/TOR doubles/Gollancz Masters of SF, etc.] If these books belong on the database, an author/character series could be created, but I don't see anything that makes me want to accept these books. Am I missing something not in the synopses? --~ Bill, Bluesman 21:35, 15 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Since there already was a page for Kathy Reichs with one publication, I thought I'd add the others too (and two of them were verified), but if they don't belong in the database, then fine. I'm not at all sure of what this database is about and why it's so narrow-minded, but oh well... --Jorssi 21:45, 15 March 2011 (UTC)


 * I moved your response back here as it's easier to follow discussions if kept on one page. I don't think we're narrow minded, but this is the Speculative Fiction Data Base, and there are other databases that deal with other genres besides Science Fiction/Horror/Fantasy and it is impossible to keep every type on this one. I checked the Kathy Reichs books on the DB and none are verified, though there is a note on the sub-series [Troy Brennan] that there are no SF elements in the main series but the "young adult spin-offs feature minor superpowers." We do have a [Policy Page], check the section on Rules of Acquisition, that describes/defines [sometimes quite succinctly and other times with gray areas] what is 'in' or 'out'. I have temporarily put the submissions on hold. --~ Bill, Bluesman 22:06, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Three Gothic Novels
I have the submission adding a new printing for this title. It would be better to clone this record as it appears to have all of the same contents as yours, and will save you from having to merge the titles with those already in the database. Select "Clone This Pub" under the Editing Tools menu, and change all the fields as they apply to your printing. You can ask any questions concerning this process on this page, your user talk page. Just click edit on the message you wish to respond to, type in your comments, and then save the page. Thanks. Mhhutchins 18:39, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry, didn't notice that this title already had a submission. You may deal with my addition as you like. I'm new to this page and I'm probably going to make mistakes in the future too. I guess that's why you moderators are for. (Not to belittle, but to thank for your advice and guidance.)


 * No problem. The learning curve is rather steep when you first start editing here.  But you'll catch on soon enough.  You can reject the submission from your end. Go to the "My Pending Edits" link on the home page, then choose "Cancel Submission".  I would still like a have a record of your book because it appears to be the first paperback printing.  Please try the pub cloning tool and you'll see how easy it is to enter it. Mhhutchins 00:01, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Tried to "Cole This Pub". Let me know if it worked out ok, thanks. --Jorssi 00:19, 19 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Looks great. Here's the record.  I'm thinking that "EL36" could be the catalog number.  If you agree, you update the record and add that to the catalog/ISBN field.  Prefixing it with an "#" indicates that it's the catalog number. Mhhutchins 00:30, 19 March 2011 (UTC)


 * I updated the EL36 as being the catalog number, although I left a note of the unavailable ISBN. Thanks. --Jorssi 00:58, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Four Famous Tudor and Stuart Plays
Because only one of the plays could be considered speculative, you should only create a record for it, and not the other which can be recorded in the note field. I'll accept the submission and delete the non-spec titles and make the appropriate changes. Thanks. Mhhutchins 18:43, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Could the other plays be under NONGENRE, or are they just excess use of space. In any case, plays that date so far back in time should, in my opinion, be marked as speculative fiction none the less. --Jorssi 00:04, 19 March 2011 (UTC)


 * That would create a new author and an accompanying author summary page. It has nothing to do with space, but it doesn't make sense to have an author in the database who has never published anything considered speculative. You will find such authors in the db but we work hard at cleaning such things up. The NONGENRE type was created for titles of non-spec works by authors who are in the db already because of their spec-fic titles. Mhhutchins 00:06, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
 * OK. If it's not any trouble for you, could you edit my submission, so the appropriate title is added? If it's too much trouble, I can try it myself. I assume the play you're talking about is Christopher Marlowes Doctor Faustus. --Jorssi 00:24, 19 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Sorry, I forgot to tell you'd that I'd already accepted the submission and edited the contents. Please see this record, see if it looks OK, and than do a primary verification of it. Thanks. Mhhutchins 00:27, 19 March 2011 (UTC)


 * I verified it. Thanks for the changes. I initially put the W.671 to the catalog#-field, but wasn't sure it belonged there. --Jorssi 00:49, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

J. R. R. Tolkien: The Architect of Middle-Earth
I accepted the submission adding this record, but see that there is already a record indicating it's the first printing with the same date and ISBN. The only exception is the price. Could yours be a later printing? Is there any indication in your copy of its printing? Thanks. Mhhutchins 18:48, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
 * It probably is, and I just didn't notice the other submission with the same ISBN, sorry and thanks. --Jorssi 23:32, 18 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Could you check to see if there is a number line on the copyright page, or a statement of a later printing? Mhhutchins 00:15, 19 March 2011 (UTC)


 * There is a line that says: First printing: April, 1977, and below that is a number sequence: 10 9 8 7 6 5 4, so I guess my copy is a later printing. --Jorssi 00:29, 19 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes, that means it's a fourth printing, and is not dated (only the first printing was dated "April, 1977" and all subsequent printings up to this one just removed a number from the line to indicate the printing. I've updated the record by zeroing out the date and adding the printing number to the notes. Mhhutchins 00:34, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

The Regulators
Same situation as above with this record. The price would indicate it was a later printing. This may be shown by a number line on the copyright page, and it may not be dated. If so, we should zero out the date field (as "0000-00-00") to indicate an undated printing, and record the printing number in the note field. Mhhutchins 18:53, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
 * The price is the same as the other printing, but the printing I added is an international printing with different ISBN, and it's a paperback probably directed outside US or UK. Although I'm not sure about that. --Jorssi 00:03, 19 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the clarification. I would suggest adding further information in the record, so that other users know this isn't the US printing.  Add any info in the book itself that leads you to believe it's not for the US market. Mhhutchins 00:11, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Links to images on Amazon
Sometimes Amazon adds a white frame around its images and it will show up when you use the direct link. See here. This can be corrected by removing every character between the "dots" in the URL (leaving only one dot). For example,  http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31NE9jEKVQL._SL500_AA300_.jpg  should be changed to  http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31NE9jEKVQL.jpg . Let me know if you'd like to make the changes in the King book, or you can try it yourself. Thanks. Mhhutchins 18:58, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
 * You can make the change. Thanks. --Jorssi 23:24, 18 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Changes were made. If you'd rather not take the time to enter a valid URL to a cover image, I understand completely.  In that case, just simply leave the field blank.  There are editors who don't believe having a cover image is a priority and do the same. Thanks. Mhhutchins 23:49, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I just didn't know how to do that, Now I do, so in the future I'm gonna make the change myself. Thanks for the advice. --Jorssi 00:02, 19 March 2011 (UTC)


 * I'm assuming you went to Amazon, found the cover and copied the URL. Once you go back to the ISFDB record you're updating or creating, paste the URL, go to the last dot (usually just before "jpg"), and start removing all characters until you reach the next dot. Mhhutchins 00:09, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Synopses
Some of the synopses that you're adding to titles appear to be promotional in nature. We try to be as objective as possible in a title's synopsis. If you'd like to go back over these titles and make them less promotional, please do so. Or let me know, and I'll do it. In this example I would change it to ''Stephen King: Uncollected, Unpublished is a comprehensive review of the Stephen King works, including coverage of nearly one hundred unpublished and uncollected works of fiction – novels, short stories, screenplays, and poems. It features the first book publication of two lost works written by Stephen King, including an entire chapter from King's unpublished 1970 novel Sword in the Darkness that has never been printed. It also gives in-depth coverage to the nearly one hundred variations and versions of King's published stories – edits, updates, and changes King made be-tween reprintings of his work.'' Thanks. Mhhutchins 19:05, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
 * You can change the synopsis as you like, I just copied it from my own copy. Thanks for the advice. --Jorssi 23:27, 18 March 2011 (UTC)


 * With more than 100,000 submissions and having moderated more than 75,000 of other editors' submissions, I don't believe I've ever enter an synopsis for a title. If you don't feel you're up to editing publisher blurbs into a impartial synopsis (or simply don't want to), then do what I do: don't bother with them. Thanks. Mhhutchins 23:45, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Noting source and/or verification
I'm assuming that the records you're adding are for books in your collection. If so, we ask that you do a primary verification. If not, and you're working from a secondary source, you should always note the source of your data in the record's note field. Thanks. Mhhutchins 19:07, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
 * You're correct, it's from my own copies. Didn't know exactly how to go about them. I know the data is correct, since I have a copy, but how do other people know it... --Jorssi 23:30, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
 * We have to believe that someone who is going to the effort of updating or creating records is not going to enter incorrect data maliciously. And being human, we all will occasionally make mistakes.  By verifying the record we at least have an individual to whom we can ask questions if there is data that is suspect. Thanks. Mhhutchins 23:39, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

The Wordsworth Book of Horror Stories
Thanks for adding this LARGE anthology to the database. Some changes will have to made in order to get it to a final shape. The link to the cover image will have to be corrected (see the comment above about Amazon images), the title record's synopsis will have to be corrected, and, the biggest task, all of the content records will have to be merged with the title records of the same stories which are currently in the database. This last task is a lot to ask of a new editor, and I'll gladly do it for you. If you'd like to try to do a few of them, the easiest way is to go to each author's summary page (click on the individual author's name) and then choose "Check for Duplicate Titles" under the Editing Tools menu. Some of these might not be found using this method, if variant titles were used in the publication. There may also be conflicts in dates or story lengths that will have to be resolved before the merge is submitted. Do not merge any records that are have conflicting titles, as this may require the creation of variant title records. Thanks for contributing. Mhhutchins 19:17, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your response. I'm so new to this page that I would greatly appreciate, if You could make the appropriate changes to my addition, since I'm not so sure, what I shoul do. In any case, this site has been very helpful for me in researching the publication dates etc. for my own collection. I checked the publication dates for the shortstories/novelettes for The Wordswoth Book of Horror Stories from Locus. Some of them were not listed there, so I used my own google-based research knowledge. I tried to be as accurate as I could, and it took me a long time to go through all the stories in the book. I have the actual copy in my own bookshelf, but it does not provide any information about the stories other than their names. Thanks for the guidance and hopefully my English isn't too bad. --Jorssi 23:58, 18 March 2011 (UTC)


 * I never suspected you were not a natural born English speaker. That raises more than a few notches my respect for your entering such a complicated publication.  I will merge the title records when I get a chance.  Then all of the stories that are already in the database will be linked to this pub. Thanks again for all you've done. Mhhutchins 00:14, 19 March 2011 (UTC)


 * A capitalized "You" is always a red flag suggesting that the writer's first language is probably German (Russian is another possibility), but otherwise your English is quite idiomatic. Welcome aboard and thanks for your contributions! Ahasuerus 00:31, 19 March 2011 (UTC)


 * A capitalized "You" is also used in Finland, when corresponding with a person you're not friends with or who's otherwise "above" yourself (as is the case here, since I've just joined here). Although not everybody uses it in Finland, but it's considered polite. As you probably guessed, I'm from Finland. Thanks for all your advice and guidance. I'm sure I will learn how to go about with my additions soon enough. Anyway, very useful and comprehensive page. --Jorssi 00:50, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

M. R. James
In The Wordsworth Book of Horror Stories, there are three titles by where the titles are slightly different than the records for other publications. I was wondering if you would mind double checking these titles before I submitted a change to make your entries variants of the other records. Thanks. --JLaTondre 17:17, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
 * The Ash Tree vs. The Ash-Tree (absence of hyphen)
 * The Diary of Mr Poynter vs. The Diary of Mr. Poynter (absence of period)
 * Mr Humphreys and His Inheritance vs. Mr. Humphreys and His Inheritance (absence of period)


 * They are listed in the actual book as I submitted. First I thought I should use the already existing titles, but then I thought it would be better to use the exact spelling on the book. --Jorssi 09:55, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
 * You are correct that titles are to be entered as they are actually listed in a publication (with the title page of the story having precedence over the table of contents). If the titles are different than the canonical title, a variant relationship is created to link the titles together. I have submitted changes to make each of these variants. Thanks for checking. --JLaTondre 20:32, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

The Wordsworth Book of Horror Stories
Hi, could you please check the title of ACD story on p. 198 (The Terror of the Blue John Gap) in this verified pub as it's different from its standard title. Does it indeed have the second "the" or is it just "The Terror of Blue John Gap". Thanks! P-Brane 02:52, 8 June 2011 (UTC).
 * Yes, it has the second "the" in the contents as well as on the title page 198. --Jorssi 08:06, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for checking! I've created the variant. P-Brane 04:23, 20 June 2011 (UTC).

Le Fanu's Ghost Stories of Chapelizod in The Wordsworth Book of Horror Stories
Hi. I recently split the grouping of "Ghost Stories of Chapelizod" by Le Fanu into the separate stories that comprise the grouping. Your verified publication, The Wordsworth Book of Horror Stories is the last remaining record that has the stories as a group. I'd like to add the individual stories, and remove the group title, if you are agreeable. I'm happy to make the edits, but it would be helpful if you could let me know of which pages the individual stories begin. I assume the introduction begins on page 889. The other stories are "The Village Bully", "The Sexton's Adventure" and "The Spectre Lovers". Thanks for your help. --Ron ~ RtraceTalk 23:20, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, you can split them and remove the group title. The Introduction begins on page 889, The Village Bully on page 890, The Sexton's Adventure on page 894, and The Spectre Lovers on page 899. --Jorssi 21:30, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I've done the edits.  This makes it easier to track when one of the stories in the grouping is collected without the others.  Thanks again. --Ron ~ RtraceTalk 00:03, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

Adding contents to Kädettömät kuninkaat ja muita häiritseviä tarinoita
Hi. Now that the addition has been approved, you should be able to go here (the same as going and clicking on Edit this Pub) and add the contents. I didn't realize until today that you couldn't add contents when using Add Pub to this Title.... --MartyD 10:12, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I made the additions. --Jorssi 12:58, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

Ghosts of Albion: Initiation
This publication appears to be a collection of scripts by the same authors, so it should be typed as COLLECTION, not ANTHOLOGY. The latter type is for a collection of stories by several authors. I will accept the submission, but will change the type to COLLECTION. Thanks. Mhhutchins 23:11, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that. After I had made the changes I realised I should've used COLLECTION. Wikipedia lists it as being an anthology, so I got mixed up. Thanks for correcting my mistake. --Jorssi 09:54, 30 June 2011 (UTC)

"Ou[r|t] Turn Too Will One Day Come"
I changed "Out" to "Our" on "Ou[r|t] Turn Too Will One Day Come" in your verified based on the listing on Cemetary Dance's site and its appearance in other publications. Please let me know if that's not correct. Thanks. --MartyD 10:20, 31 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Our is correct. It was a typo, thanks for correcting. --Jorssi 14:30, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

The Green Mile screenplay
I've made the following changes to this record:
 * The generic titles have been disambiguated by adding the title of the work to them, as in "Introduction (The Green Mile: The Screenplay)".
 * The NONFICTION record was changed to ESSAY. The former type is used for book-length work. The latter is used for nonfiction pieces within a larger work.
 * You added a content record for the title, which is not necessary. The system automatically creates a title record for the content. I'll have to remove it and then delete it from the database.

Also, this is a book club edition, so I added "/ BCE" to the publisher name. Research has shown that this was published for book stores by Scribner. Are you certain that the publisher shown on the book's title page is Simon & Schuster? Thanks for checking. Mhhutchins 17:13, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

Please do a primary verification of the record when you get a chance. Thanks. Mhhutchins 17:15, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

I'm also suspicious of the publication date. The trade edition wasn't published until January 2000. Most book club editions do not give the publication date, but most of them are published simultaneously or after the trade edition. Does your copy give a publication date (not the year of copyright)? Mhhutchins 17:19, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
 * There is no publication date on the book, I used the year of copyright. Also the publication date was 1999 in every single place on the internet that I could find. The title page states the following: "Scribner Paperback Fiction published by Simon & Schuster" and on the copyright page reads: "Scribner Paperback Fiction. Simon & Schuster Inc. Rockefeller Center 1230 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10020." and "Scribner Paperback Fiction and design are trademarks of Macmillan Library Reference USA, Inc., used under license by Simon & Schuster, the publisher of this work." Thanks for the edits you made. --Jorssi 21:17, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I forgot to add that I don't know what the book club edition means, but it doesn't say that anywhere on the book. --Jorssi 21:21, 16 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Take a look at this help page. It's specific to the Science Fiction Book Club, but can be applied to any book published for the Doubleday Book Clubs, later Bookspan. I can assure you that your copy is a book club edition. Without even looking at it, I know there's no printed price, and there's no stated publication date. And the ISBN is one assigned to Bookspan. Mhhutchins 22:21, 16 April 2012 (UTC)


 * I read the help page you linked and it seems my book really is a book club edition. It has the following book club identification number: 06102. Should that be added to the notes field? Thanks for all your help. --Jorssi 22:47, 16 April 2012 (UTC)


 * That number goes in the ISBN/Catalog # field. Make sure to enter it as #06102, per ISFDB standards. Mhhutchins 02:05, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

Entering publications under the correct title record
I accepted the submission to add a new publication of The Parasite, but will have to remove it from the title record you entered it under (To Wake the Dead) and place it under the correct title record (The Parasite). When adding new pubs, be sure to find the title record that EXACTLY matches both the title of the book and author's credit. Thanks. Mhhutchins 14:56, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

Tales Too Extreme for Cemetery Dance
I changed the publication type of this record from CHAPTERBOOK to ANTHOLOGY. For ISFDB purposes, a CHAPTERBOOK is a single story publication of less than novel length (40,000 words). Because the editor of anthologies are entered as the author of the record, I changed it to "uncredited" instead of the names of the individual authors of the stories. This last is a debatable point, especially if all of the authors are listed on the title page. If so, let me know, and I can change it back. (I also added a cover image to the record.) Thanks. Mhhutchins 01:32, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

The Stephen King Illustrated Companion
Just an FYI that the cover artist of your verified publication has been changed from "Kasey Free and Joanna Price" to and. Ahasuerus 05:08, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

A Book of Horrors
If the page count you gave for this record is correct, you'll have to redo the page numbering for the contents. Thanks. Mhhutchins 00:01, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
 * The numbering is now corrected. Sorry, I didn't notice that at the first place.--Jorssi 11:21, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

Blue World
If there's a different excerpt in your copy of this printing, you should use the "Remove Titles" function to remove any contents that don't match yours, then do a second submission that updates the record to add the new contents. Thanks. Mhhutchins 14:36, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

Publication dates on McCammon books
I accepted the submission adding this new printing of Baal, but wonder about the date you've given. We already have a record for a 1991 printing priced at $6.99 (not verified), and yours is the fifth printing by number line. Does your copy have a stated date of publication? I'm also holding submissions adding three more McCammon titles.

The first one, for The Wolf's Hour is dated 1990, and you note "Third printing. Number line 10 9 8 7 6 5 4." That number line would indicate a fourth printing. And is your copy explicitly dated 1990?

The second submission is for the first printing of Bethany's Sin. But we already have a record in the database that matches almost every field that you've entered. The only difference is a one page difference in the page count field, which is not sufficient reason to create a new record, especially if the first one is not verified. All you had to do was edit the record to match your copy and then do a verification of it. I'll accept your submission, but delete the one already in the database, after you've taken a look at it.

In the third submission, to add the 10th printing of Mystery Walk, we have a record based on a listing from Locus which gives a different price. If you can confirm that yours has a stated publication date of October 1992, and priced at $7.99 (pretty high for a 1992 printing), I'll accept your submission and then delete the other one. Thanks. Mhhutchins 15:05, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
 * No my copy doesn't have a stated date of publication and neither has the other three. I must've forgotten the dates while cloning the titles. Sorry about that. The Wolf's Hour is indeed fourth printing. The existing record of Bethany's Sin has a different ISBN as my copy. The existing record has 0-380-47112-4 and my physical copy has 0-380-47712-2. Mystery Walk is probably printed somewhere around 1999, but I'm not sure about that. As I said earlier, I have just forgotten to edit the publication date field.--Jorssi 17:46, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Baal doesn't have a publication date, but in the About the Author text it reads "Boy's Life will be available in hardcover from Pocket Books in August, 1991. That's why I stated the date 1991.--Jorssi 17:56, 6 September 2012 (UTC)


 * Unless the publication date is explicitly stated, or you have a reliable secondardy source, it's better to zero out the dates. I'll accept the submissions and ask that you make the appropriate changes. Mhhutchins 19:56, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

The Monk by Matthew Lewis
Hi. Do you have a copy of the Dover edition of The Monk, for which you submitted a new entry? I am asking because you have added it to the title by "Matthew Lewis", yet the cover and the title page in Amazon's Look Inside show the author attribution as "Matthew Gregory Lewis" (in which case, the pub should be added to this title instead). Thanks. --MartyD 12:18, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, I have a copy. I intended to add it to the title by "Matthew Gregory Lewis", but must've mistakenly added it in the wrong place.--Jorssi 12:30, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks. I will accept it and move it.  Coming up.  --MartyD 12:36, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
 * All set. Pub is here.  --MartyD 12:38, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

Dan Simmons' The Terror
I have your submission to add the first printing of the hardcover edition of this title. There is already a record in the database for this edition with data from Locus1. They had mistakenly reversed the ISBNs of the hardcover and trade paperback editions, which I've corrected. The only difference now is the price. If your copy has a printed price of £20.00, then correct the current record, removing the Locus1 source, and then cancel the current submission. Also, remember to leave a Note to the Moderator that you're working from a copy of the book. This helps speed up the submission's acceptance by keeping the moderator from having to research it. Thanks. Mhhutchins 16:30, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

I accepted the submission updating the current record, but you should have removed the note about Locus1 being your source. And add the numberline as you'd given in your original submission. Next do a primary verification of the record. See the welcome section for the instructions on how to do a primary verification if you've not done it before. Mhhutchins 16:47, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

Please cancel the submission to add a new record. Thanks. Mhhutchins 16:49, 8 September 2012 (UTC)
 * I removed the Locus reference and added the number line. Also I corrected the page count and cancelled the earlier submisson. Thanks.--Jorssi 18:47, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

When to clone, when to import, when to add a pub
Please use this decision path before adding records to the database:
 * Is there a title record for the exact title and is it by the same author?
 * Yes: Is there a similar pub?
 * Yes: Use the "Clone" function.
 * No: Use the "Add Publication to This Title" function.
 * No: Use the appropriate "Add New..." function.

Since you'd used the "Add Publication..." function to add this record to the database (you should have cloned this record), it is now better that you import the contents from that record. This avoids your having to merge all of the content title records with those that are already in the database. I rejected the submission to add contents to the record because you're creating duplicate records.

How to import contents:


 * 1) Go to the publication record from which you wish to import the contents, and write down (or copy) the record's id number. This is the number following "pl.cgi?" in your browser's address window. (In this case, the number is 37974.)
 * 2) Go to the publication record into which you wish to import the contents.
 * 3) Click on the "Import Content" link under the Editing Tools menu.
 * 4) On the next screen enter the record ID number that you copied from the other publication record ("37974)" into the "Import From" field. Leave the checkbox checked if you want to use the same pagination as the other record. In this case the first record's contents had no page numbers so it doesn't matter. Click on "Import Content"
 * 5) On this screen add the page numbers of the content records if necessary. Also, add records for content in your copy that was not in the previous record. If there is content that is not in your copy of the book, you have to remove that on a subsequent submission. Then "Submit Data".

Once the submission has been moderated you can go back and update the record if necessary to match your copy of the book. Thanks. Mhhutchins 16:45, 8 September 2012 (UTC)
 * All done. Hope I did it correctly this time. Live and learn. Thanks.--Jorssi 18:46, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

Wamphryi
Are you certain that this book has an ISBN-13? This was not used until 2005 in the UK and in the US circa 2007. Also, records for the British releases of this publisher should be entered as "HarperCollins (UK)" to keep them separate from the US releases. Please do a primary verification when you get a chance. Thanks. Mhhutchins 21:38, 8 September 2012 (UTC)
 * On the back cover it has ISBN-13, but on the copyright page it's ISBN-10. Now that I thought about it, I don't thin the date I put is correct. Probably the first printing of this edition was 2000 and this being 18th printing, it's probably printed 2007 or later. I'll make the appropriate changes. Thanks.--Jorssi 21:50, 8 September 2012 (UTC)


 * The first printing of this title by this publisher (when it was know as Grafton) was published in 1988, using the same ISBN as your printing. The price of pbs in the UK haven't changed that much in the past dozen years, so it's possible that it was printed in 2000, but it would not have an ISBN-13. A precursor to ISBN-13s was the EAN which is also a 13-digit number used on barcodes. Is the 13-digit number you give explicitly stated as an ISBN or is it part of the barcode numbers? Thanks. Mhhutchins 22:07, 8 September 2012 (UTC)
 * It is stated as an ISBN.--Jorssi 22:10, 8 September 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for looking. Now we now it was published after 2004, but no date more definite. Mhhutchins 22:37, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

Brite's Lost Souls
Can you confirm that the publisher of this record is given as "Dell / Abyss"? In the ISFDB, we occasionally enter both the parent publisher and the imprint, but in this format: "Imprint / Publisher". We already have the titles from this imprint in the database as Abyss / Dell. Is the Abyss logo printed on the spine of your book? Is the imprint indicated on either the title page or copyright page of your copy as well? Thanks for looking. Mhhutchins 22:11, 8 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Actually the Abyss-name appears only on the copyright page: "The trademarks Dell® and Abyss® are registered in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office." There is no other mention of Abyss anywhere on the book. So I guess it should be Dell only then?--Jorssi 22:18, 8 September 2012 (UTC)


 * That's right. I think by the time they got to the 20th printing, the Abyss imprint was history. Thanks. Mhhutchins 22:32, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

"King Blood", by Simon Clark
The cover picture attached to your verified book was a very low resolution photo. I replaced it with a higher resolution copy from Amazon. However, the previous cover photo was grayscale, and the higher resolution one now listed on Amazon is a color photo. If you can, please check that this cover is correct, i.e. that your edition of the book really is a color cover. Thanks, Chavey 19:11, 16 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, the cover is correct. Thanks.--Jorssi 14:30, 17 December 2012 (UTC)

Wetware
This is incorrectly typed as a CHAPTERBOOK, which is defined for ISFDB purposes as a "separate publication of a single work of short fiction". I have changed it to NONFICTION. Thanks. Mhhutchins 01:44, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

Same situation with this record. Mhhutchins 01:46, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

Sorry for accepting your publication update ;-) ...
... but I shouldn't have done it. The reason for this statement is that we do NEED a statement of Fair Use of the uploaded image to shield us from potential accusations of copyright violation. I added this template for you afterwards, please take if all is correct. There is an easy way to ensure that this statement is automatically installed for cover images: do use the 'Upload cover scan' button on the publication listing in question. Thanks, Stonecreek 18:44, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Everything looks fine to me. I thought the 'Upload new cover scan' meant that it's ok to scan the covers of your own books here, but I should've realized there would be copyright issues. I actually did use the 'Upload cover scan' link, but when nothin happened, I edited it manually. I probably didn't do it correctly then. --Jorssi 20:50, 13 June 2013 (UTC)


 * I'm unsure why the "upload new cover scan" link didn't work. But that's the only way you should upload cover images. It not only adds the proper license tag, it also creates a link back to the publication record, and names the file to match the tag of the publication record. If it doesn't work in the future, leave a message on the Moderator Noticeboard, and we'll try to solve the problem. Using the direct upload method on the wiki side isn't a good idea. I'll copy the image you uploaded and see if the "upload new cover scan" link is working. Thanks for contributing. Mhhutchins 21:01, 13 June 2013 (UTC)


 * It uploaded OK. I've updated the pub record. I also changed "Ninth edition" to "Ninth printing" in the Note field. There is a distinct difference in the terms. Thanks. Mhhutchins 21:05, 13 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the edition->printing change. I almost changed it myself as it indeed wasn't the correct word. --Jorssi 21:19, 13 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Forgot to mention, that the 'Upload new cover scan' link worked fine other than the fact that the Summary field was completely empty. I tried the link awhile ago in another publication and it worked fine. Don't know why it didn't work correctly before. --Jorssi 22:57, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguating generic titles
Generic titles should be disambiguated for various reasons. I've done that to the three contents you added to this record. Thanks. Mhhutchins 18:00, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Damn, sorry about that. Will definitely remember that next time. Thanks. --Jorssi 18:18, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

'The Best of Cemetery Dance''
I'm holding your submission to update this record. Concerning the question you asked in the "Note to Moderator" field, as long as you're entering the credits from the story's title page (not the contents page), then it's perfectly fine to make changes to a record, regardless of whether the author's name or the story's title is misspelled. It is ISFDB policy to record credits EXACTLY as given on the title pages. If you can assure me that the changes you've made to the record are based on those credits, I will accept the submission. Once accepted, I'll make the necessary variants and pseudonyms based on this publication, regardless of how the credits are given in other publications. If these same spellings/errors appear in other publications, I'll merge them with those records. There should be no concern about how the stories are credited in another publication as long as you're entering the credits of this one following ISFDB policies. Any unverified records will have to remain "as is" until a primary verifier comes along, or we can find a reliable secondary source.

BTW, it is better to ask such questions before going through the effort and time in making a submission to update a record. You should not ask questions in the "Note to Moderator" field. We have no way of responding to inquiries made in a submission. Questions should be asked on the ISFDB:Moderator_noticeboard. Thanks. Mhhutchins 19:57, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
 * OK, I'll ask any future questions beforehand. Sorry about that. The titles and names are exactly as they appear on each story's title page. On the contents page there are some misspells which I've noted on the Notes field. Those misspells were not present on the title pages. I think I forgot to mention on the Notes field that Nancy A. Collins is stated as Nancy Collins on the content page and the story titled "Comes the Night Wind, Cold and Hungry" is shortened (because of space issues) on the content page to "Comes the Night Wind..." Thanks for making the variants and pseudonyms. Can you also delete the erraneous content records, or should I do that? --Jorssi 20:12, 2 July 2013 (UTC)


 * I'm doing it now. One other thing, we "regularize" a credit for an author with "Jr.", "Sr.", "II", "III", etc, to ", XX" (adding a comma even when it's not in the published credit.) Also, why did you create new records for "Fyodor's Law", "The Liar's Mouth", and "Pig's Dinner"? All titles and authors remained unchanged. One last thing, are all three artists credited with the same cover? Or are there three different covers for each edition? Mhhutchins 20:31, 2 July 2013 (UTC)


 * "Fyodor's Law", "The Liar's Mouth", and "Pig's Dinner" had an accent mark instead of an apostrophe. I thought it shoul be corrected. All three artists are credited with the same cover as there are three different drawings on it. Thanks for the advice about the Jr. etc policy. --Jorssi 20:41, 2 July 2013 (UTC)


 * About the accent mark stories, I'm not sure how they appeared on your monitor, but all three stories had apostrophes and merged with the duplicates you created without any reconciliation, meaning they were perfect matches. How do they look now? Mhhutchins 20:45, 2 July 2013 (UTC)


 * They look ok now, but if I go to the "Edit Publication" page, they seem to have accent marks again instead of apostrophes. That is also the case with all the other titles I've tried, so I guess that's nothing to be worried about. Now I'll know it in the future and won't bother myself with them. On the Notes field "Crash Cart" should be "Easy's Last Stand". Thanks for the edits. --Jorssi 20:53, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

City of Night submission
I think your submitted clone of City of Night duplicates. Do you think the book you have is a different edition? --MartyD 11:31, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure since the already existing title had a page count of 455, which is the page where the main book ends, but my copy has 19 more paginated pages with the excerpt of Velocity. It might be the exact same edition, but I'm not sure.--Jorssi 11:34, 19 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Many entries have been made over the years using secondary sources (we have a robot, "Fixer", who crawls Amazon sites, and people have entered things from Locus1 and other places). We are now much better about documenting in the notes that information did NOT come from an actual book-in-hand than we used to be.  If you find a book that seems to be referring to what you have, that has no Primary Verifier, and whose notes are skimpy or state/imply use of a secondary source to construct the entry, you should just change it in place, correcting whatever disagrees with your book in hand and adjusting the notes.  This is why we encourage people to do primary verifications -- so we know a real human being looked at a real book.  By the way, if you follow the WorldCat link, you get to the OCLC entry cited in that other publication record, and OCLC says 474 pages....
 * Anyway, no harm done. Just something to keep in mind for the future.  I will accept your entry, delete that other publication record, and move the OCLC note over onto your entry.  Thanks.  --MartyD 10:47, 20 July 2013 (UTC)


 * p.s. I found the October month from the original entry (probably the whole entry, in fact, as it says 455pp) came from Locus1, so I included that and an additional note as to the source. --MartyD 11:04, 20 July 2013 (UTC)


 * OK, now I'm a bit wiser again. Thanks. --Jorssi 12:20, 21 July 2013 (UTC)

Page count field
What is on the extra page which you've added to the page count field of this record? Ordinarily you'd either enter a content record for important text or at least explain in the Note field what is on the unnumbered page. Thanks. Mhhutchins 19:21, 24 July 2013 (UTC)
 * It's an "About the Author" essay by unknown. I couldn't add it as content from the add new publication edit page. I'll add it now. Thanks. --Jorssi 19:29, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

Buffy the Vampire Slayer 1
If the two unpaginated content records in this publication are in the back of the book, you should count forward from the last numbered page to obtain a page number. For example, [679] and [683]. Mhhutchins 23:16, 27 July 2013 (UTC)


 * OK, thanks. --Jorssi 23:42, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

Date field
The date ("Year") field of an ISFDB title record is for the date of the work's first publication. It has no relationship to the year of the work was copyrighted. I've rejected the submission to change the date of this record to the copyright year. Thanks. Mhhutchins 21:58, 28 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. --Jorssi 12:33, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

Shawshank Redemption shooting script
Are you certain that this work (as presented in this publication) was first published in 1996? I've found a UK publication of the script for which this may be a variant. If it's the same work, the 2004 title record can be varianted to the 1996 title once it's been entered into the database. (The previous submission was rejected because you noted the change was based on the copyright year, not based on a previous publication.) Mhhutchins 22:07, 28 July 2013 (UTC)


 * My copy doesn't state the original publication year. Amazon states the publication date 10 October 1996 here. That's probably the same publication that you referred to and it probably is a variant, but I'm not certain. Thanks. --Jorssi 12:28, 29 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Clicking on the link I provided, you'll see it is for the Nick Hern edition published in the UK, not the Newmarket Press edition which was published in the US in 2004. I'll create a variant if research shows the titles are different. Otherwise I'll add the Nick Hern edition which will change the date of the title record to 1996. Mhhutchins 17:12, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

The Deathless
Amazon.co.uk has this book published on 2007-05-08. You can update the record's date field and use this as the source. Mhhutchins 21:57, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

Dating publications
If a publication has a stated month and year of publication (such as "Published in September 2006"), the Year field of the ISFDB record should reflect that date exactly: 2006-09-00, even if a secondary source, such as Amazon, is able to provide the day of publication, e.g. September 21, 2006. You can add the day-date in the Note field, but it's not required.

If a publication has only a stated year of publication (such as "Published in 1976) or no stated date at all, you have the option of refining the Year field if there is a reliable secondary source, which should be credited in the Note field.

In the case of this record, since only the month and year is stated, that should be shown in the Year field. The day-date can be given in the Note field along with the source for that data. Thanks. Mhhutchins 15:00, 30 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Ok, I just left the date that was already on the publication. There were no notes, so I have no idea, what the origin of the date is. I'll edit it to match my book. Thanks. --Jorssi 15:08, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

Needless disambiguation
We only add the title of the work to generic titles such as "Introduction" or "Foreword" in order to disambiguate it and to keep it from being mistakenly merged with identically titled records by the same author. If the introduction has an actual, non-generic, title, there is no need to add the title of the work. For Barker's introduction in this record, I removed the book's title from the introduction's title. Thanks. Mhhutchins 15:33, 30 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Ok, thanks. I just copied it from this record. --Jorssi 15:39, 30 July 2013 (UTC)


 * I pass the info along to the verifier of that record. Thanks for pointing it out. Mhhutchins 15:59, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

Excerpt format
When entering works which are excerpts from a larger work with the same name, the format is "Title (excerpt)". Note the non-capitalized "e" in "excerpt". Thanks. Mhhutchins 20:04, 30 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Ok, thanks. --Jorssi 20:05, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

Strange Candy
I made the following corrections in the Note field of this record based on ISFDB entry standards:

From  OCLC: 143977574 Worldcat  which is displayed this way: OCLC: 143977574 Worldcat

To  OCLC: 143977574  which is displayed like this: OCLC: 143977574

Notice the change in the URL. For a clean URL from an OCLC record, click on the Permalink at the top right of each OCLC record. Thanks. Mhhutchins 19:37, 12 August 2013 (UTC)


 * OK, thanks. I just left the OCLC reference as it was before my edit. --Jorssi 19:42, 12 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Pardon. I didn't notice that. Sometimes these formatting errors slip through because it's hard to read the HTML in submissions and can only be noticed once accepted. (Some moderators are more diligent about following up such submissions to see how they are displayed.) Thanks. Mhhutchins 19:56, 12 August 2013 (UTC)


 * No problemo. --Jorssi 20:02, 12 August 2013 (UTC)

Chosen: The One
Does your copy have a US price as well? Or is this an exclusive UK printing? If so, the publisher should be distinguished from the US one as "Pocket Books (UK)". Thanks. Mhhutchins 17:28, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

Same situation with this book and this one. Mhhutchins 17:29, 13 August 2013 (UTC)


 * No, they do not have a US price. I made the changes. Thanks. --Jorssi 17:32, 13 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Also, if the author isn't credited anywhere in this book, cover, title page, copyright page, running header, then it should be credited to "uncredited". Mhhutchins 18:20, 13 August 2013 (UTC)


 * I made the change. Thanks. --Jorssi 18:23, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

The Lost
Does this book have an ISBN-13? that can help in determining if it is a later printing. Thanks for looking. Mhhutchins 18:46, 15 August 2013 (UTC)


 * No, it does not. It has a $1 price difference on the existing title that has been verified by Locus1 and OCLC/Worldcat. --Jorssi 18:50, 15 August 2013 (UTC)

Possible pub entry error
Is this book credited to "Richard Bachman" on its title page? If not, the record was created under the wrong title and probably should have been entered under this one which credits Stephen King. Thanks for checking. Mhhutchins 16:58, 19 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Yes, that was my bad. I meant to create it under Stephen King. Sorry about that. --Jorssi 17:04, 19 August 2013 (UTC)


 * I had to reject the submission to "correct" the author credit. The pub record will have to be unmerged from its current title and then merged into the proper one. That will take several submissions, which I'll do to save some time. Thanks. Mhhutchins 17:49, 19 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Ok, thanks. --Jorssi 17:55, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

The Tommyknockers
I accepted your submission to update this record, but noticed only afterward that you had changed it to the second printing. I'll clone the record to restore a record of the first NEL printing. Thanks. Mhhutchins 17:56, 19 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Gaahh, what's wrong with me today. Thanks. --Jorssi 17:59, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

The Waste Lands
If the excerpt is separately paginated in this book, then there's no need to put brackets around that number in the page count field. Brackets are used to indicate unnumbered pages. So the page count field would be "xvi+584+14". Pagination like this is uncommon enough that many experienced editors have trouble figuring out the rules. To avoid the software display problem in the content section (because there are 2 pages in the book numbered "3"), I've added a plus sign before the excerpt's page number. There is no specific rule about this usage. It's just a quick solution to a software display issue that's difficult to fix. I added a note to the record to explain this. Thanks. Mhhutchins 23:07, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

Nightmares & Dreamscapes
When adding a record for a reprint of a collection it is best to clone a record in the database which already has content records (if there is one). This saves you the extra submission to import the contents from another record (or, even worse, adding content records which will have to be merged with the current records.) I've done that for you here, so all you have to do now is to add the correct page numbers for the contents. Thanks. Mhhutchins 23:14, 19 August 2013 (UTC)


 * All done, thanks. I also added a note of the illustration which I just noticed. --Jorssi 12:50, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

Straub's The Buffalo Hunter
I've added notes to this record (removing the note that "Info from the publisher's website. Publication date is tentative"), and did a second Primary verification. I also changed the publication date to match that on the publisher's website. Thanks. Mhhutchins 02:18, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

Golden's The Secret Backs of Things
I've added a record for the lettered edition of this title for which you have verified the numbered edition. I have chosen to create individual records for each of Chadbourne's interior art pieces. If you want, you can import them to your record (remove all content titles from your record before importing them from mine.) I also added a cover image file which I believe is identical to the numbered edition. Feel free to link it to your record as well. You can also remove from your record the note concerning the lettered edition, now that there's a separate record for it. Thanks. Mhhutchins 17:37, 20 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Ok, I'll do the edits now, but I guess I have to do three separate edits, so it will probably take a while. Thanks. --Jorssi 17:45, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

Riding the Bullet
This record seems to be almost the same as this one (they have the same ISBN). At the time of publication, the book had a price of $2.50 (now it's priced at $3.79). If your copy was available for a limited period for free, it should not be dated, as it would confuse users that it was both sold for a price and was free at the same time. Unless you're able to find the download date, it's best to zero out the date of the record. Thanks. Mhhutchins 17:46, 20 August 2013 (UTC)


 * That is the date of the file on my computer as well. I don't remember the exact download date, so I'll zero it out. Thanks. --Jorssi 17:50, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

The Providence Rider
I have added the OCLC link to your primary verification of The Providence Rider. Hope this is okay. MLB 12:30, 10 September 2013 (UTC)


 * All good, thanks. --Jorssi 12:27, 11 September 2013 (UTC)

Deathbrd Stories
I've added cover art from my copy to http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/pl.cgi?278049Prof beard 14:33, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

"IT", Stephen King
You have a verified edition of this book, which was listed as "It". The author's web site says that both letters of the title should be capitalized, so I changed the title of your publication to agree with that. Chavey 08:56, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks for letting me know. They indeed are both capitalized. --Jorssi 17:43, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

Daughter of the Flames
You were the primary verifier of Daughter of the Flames and I recently found the artist credit on this site, so I added it to your listing. Hope it's okay with you. MLB 11:24, 1 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for letting me know. --Jorssi 23:34, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

Doctor Sleep
I added the author's note to this verified pub. Thanks, --Willem H. 19:13, 6 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Also added a cover scan. --Willem H. 21:44, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Nice, thanks. --Jorssi 14:24, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

Al Sarrantonio's Certain Spirits
You verified which contains Certain Spirits and  which contains Certain Spirits. Are these the same poem and should they be merged? The anthology (which was published second) sounds like it is supposed to be new works, but wouldn't the first time one fail short of that claim. Thanks. -- JLaTondre (talk) 13:17, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, they are the same poem and should be merged. I'm not sure how to do that, though. If you can do it, or tell me how to do it, I would appreciate it. Thanks. --Jorssi 14:25, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Check out Editing:Merging Titles and Help:How to merge titles. If you have questions, post them here and I'd be glad to answer. I'll let you merge these two. Thanks. -- JLaTondre (talk) 23:05, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

The Regulators
is the cover to The Regulators the same as http://johnjudepalencar.com/Regulators.htm -- and therefore the cover by Palencar? Susan O&#39;Fearna 18:47, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
 * It is very similar, but not exactly the same. I'm pretty sure the cover is by Palencar, but as it is not stated on the book nor is there a signature on the artwork, I cannot say for sure.--Jorssi 18:40, 26 December 2013 (UTC)


 * Are you certain that the ISBN stated in your copy is 0-451-19192-7? We have another verified record for the first printing of September 1997 with an ISBN of 0-451-19101-3. Thanks for checking. Mhhutchins 19:14, 26 December 2013 (UTC)


 * I just noticed that I asked you about your copy a couple of years ago, but never got a follow-up submission to update the record. Please consider doing that. Thanks. Mhhutchins 19:16, 26 December 2013 (UTC)


 * I added some information on the record. The ISBN is as stated.--Jorssi 10:42, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

Stephen King's Desperation
I've changed the *tiny* Amazon image with a locally-hosted 600 high image for Stephen King's Desperation.

Turn Down The Lights
I accepted your edit to, but made changes to the first essay. Ellipses should be entered as " . . ." not as "...". Also, you had "Trun" when I assume it should have been "Turn". If was really misspelled in the book, then you will need to change it back and add a note. Thanks. -- JLaTondre (talk) 13:08, 27 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Trun was my mistake. Thanks.--Jorssi 13:10, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

Thy Brother's Keeper
Is there an ISBN-13 present in this 2010 publication? If so, please update the record, replacing the current ISBN-10 with the stated ISBN. If not, add a note that this book has only an ISBN-10. (Most publishers changed to ISBN-13 in 2007, but some may have lagged behind.) Thanks. Mhhutchins 17:26, 25 January 2014 (UTC)

It would also be a good idea to change the source of the limitation statement in the note field. Thanks. Mhhutchins 17:27, 25 January 2014 (UTC)


 * ISBN-13 has been submitted along with some notes. Thanks.--Jorssi 12:05, 26 January 2014 (UTC)
