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
 * ISFDB 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 (~&#126;); 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! Ahasuerus 05:04, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Michael Crichton's Pirate Latitudes
Thanks for submitting 's Pirate Latitudes! Since it's not an SF novel, I have changed it to "NON-GENRE". I also changed the binding from "Hc" to "hc" and added the month of publication. Could you please double check that it is indeed November as reported by Amazon.com? Thanks again and welcome to ISFDB! Ahasuerus 05:07, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Publications and The Atlantis Code
Hi, and welcome. Be careful when editing an existing record that does not match the book you have. Especially if the ISBN / Catalog number you see does not match what is in the record, it's likely you have a different edition that should be recorded separately. You can work off of an existing entry by using "Clone Pub" to make a copy, then change the copy. In the case of The Atlantis Code, the entry you edited was for the hardcover, but you changed it with information from the paperback edition. Since the original was just an unverified submission from Amazon data, I made another copy and allowed your changes through. (Had you edited a verified record, I would have had to reject the submission.) So now we have both  and. You can see more clearly how they play together here. Thanks, and thank you for contributing. --MartyD 11:10, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
