A Chimaera in My Wardrobe
There are quite a number of problems with the submission to add a record for this collection. I'm going to accept it but make the following corrections, all based on standards as given on this help page which explains how to enter each field of a publication record. Please look over this page before making future submissions.


 * Title was changed to A Chimaera in My Wardrobe which reflects standard English capitalization (those rules are explained on the help page linked above). These rules apply regardless of what capitalization is used in the book, unless there is an obvious reason why the author chooses to disregard standard English capitalization.
 * Publication date was changed to show that given in the Amason listing: 2013-03-04 (the ISFDB standard for date entry: YYYY-MM-DD).
 * The format binding field was changed to "ebook". The formats and their designation are given on the help page linked above.
 * The ASIN (Amazon ID number) was removed from the ISBN/Catalog number field. This field should only give the publisher's ID number, not the retailer. I've moved the ASIN to the Note field.
 * The price field was changed from "£3.08" to "$2.99", the retail price as given in the Amazon listing.
 * The types of each of the contents in the collection were changed from COLLECTION to SHORTFICTION. The first is for the container publication, the latter is the type for any less-than-novel length short fiction.
 * There was no source given in the record's Note field. If you are working from the primary source (the book itself), let the moderator know in the "Note to Moderator" field. If you're working from a secondary source (any source other than the book), you must give that source in the Note field. I'll add Amazon as the source, since that's where I got my data.
