Welcome!

Hello, Bookthing, 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:

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#Making changes to verified pubs. 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!Kraang 02:00, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Year's Best SF 16

Hi! Your submission would make Year's Best SF a sub series of Year's Best SF 16[1]. What you need to do is click "Edit Title Data" and in series paste in Year's Best SF and 16 in series number. This will add the title to the series. Thanks for editing and welcome to the ISFDB!Kraang 03:03, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

I added the image you uploaded. This is a two step process, upload then submit the image link. Just right click the uploaded image go to properties and copy the URL and submit. This will then link the image. Thanks!Kraang 03:10, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Lambshead's Cabinet

Should the introduction to this anthology be an essay or should it remain as a short story? Also please consider removing the note giving the source as Amazon and do a primary verification of the record. (Here's a link to the help page for verifying data.) Mhhutchins 03:08, 15 July 2011 (UTC)

The Simple Art of Murder

I see that you have submitted the 1988 edition of Raymond Chandler's The Simple Art of Murder (1950). Is there any speculative fiction in this book? As far as I can tell, the stories are mysteries and the book also contains Chandler's eponymous essay. The Collection title is in the database because it was reviewed by Algis Budrys in 1977, but I don't think we want to include the stories unless they have SF elements. Thanks for editing!

Every Shallow Cut

The submission adding this new pub to the database was accepted, but I made some changes and additions. The price field should show the currency, so I added "$" before the price. I also changed the date to the one given in the Amazon.com listing, which also provided a cover image, and the cover artist credit. If you have a copy of this book, please do a primary verification (you can remove the "Data from Amazon" note as well.) Thanks. Mhhutchins 18:06, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
