Best SF
I'm removing the link that was given in this record to the cover image file on another website. Because these are "deep links" (they draw bandwidth from the hosting server and not the ISFDB) we must have explicit permission from the hosting server in order to link to their image files. Unfortunately, we don't have permission from Library Thing. Here is a list of websites which have given us permission to link to their images. Thanks for contributing.

 * Sorry, at accepting it I really thought the image was scanned by the user (guess I had my mind occupied with a problem) - will do better in the future. Stonecreek 07:35, 30 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Ah, apologies! I will learn to read first before adding new stuff to the DB. :) XtinaS 13:56, 28 May 2013 (UTC)

Primary verification of records
If you're doing a primary verification of the record (you have the actual book), you should remove any note about the source of the data, unless the data in the record isn't verified by internal facts. For example, this book has a note saying the data is from Amazon. To do a primary verification means that you've checked each of the record's fields and can confirm that the data is present in the book itself. But let's say that the actual publication date of February 28 2012 isn't stated in the book (which it likely isn't), you should note that. This help page should provide further information on verifying records. If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to ask here. Thanks for contributing. Mhhutchins 17:21, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
