Welcome!
Hello,, 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
 * 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. 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.

I hope you enjoy editing here! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will insert your name and the date. If you need help, check out the community portal, or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! -- JLaTondre (talk) 23:43, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

The Beginning of This, The End of That
I have accepted your submission of, but I had to make corrections: The ISFDB has a number of conventions and it can take a bit to become familiar with all of them. I encourage you to read through the help (see links in welcome message above). Also, feel free to ask questions (either here in response to this or if a new topic you can post questions at the ISFDB:Help desk‎). We appreciate your contribution. Thanks. -- JLaTondre (talk) 23:43, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Binding: You entered "Paperback/Kindle" for this field. First, we only list only one binding per publication record. Second, we use a specific set of values. I changed it to "tp" (for trade paperback) based on the dimensions supplied by Amazon for the print book. If you also wish to enter the ebook version, you will have to clone the publication and change any applicable information (in particular setting the binding to "ebook").
 * Publisher: Amazon lists the publisher of the printed version as CreateSpace. Scholars Nook is the ebook publisher.
 * Price: The price should have the applicable currency symbol as we support books from multiple countries. I added "$" to the price.
 * Contents: When entering a novel, you do not need to add the novel itself to the contents. In fact, you shouldn't as the novel content record will get created automatically and when you manually add it, two copies get created. I removed the duplicate.
 * Source: You should list the source of the information. If you have a copy of the book and plan on verifying it, you can add a note to that affect in the note to moderator box when submitting. If you don't have the book, then you should state your source in the notes box. Since it was not clear from your submittal, I added a note sourcing Amazon. If you verify the book, you can remove that note.
 * Image URL: The image URL was a link to the Amazon page on the book, not the Amazon image of the book.
