Welcome!
Hello, Shannoncelebi, 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
- Field-by-field guide to entering new publications into the database
- 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#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! Mhhutchins 19:51, 29 May 2013 (UTC)
Small Town Ghosts
Do all of the stories in this collection contain a fantasy or supernatural element? With few exceptions, non-supernatural horror/thriller/suspense stories are not eligible for the database. I will hold the submission to add the collection until you've responded to this message. Click on the [edit] link to the right, enter your response and save the page. Thanks for contributing.

- Yes, all of the stories in this collection contain a supernatural element. Please let me know if you have any other questions. --Shannoncelebi 21:36, 29 May 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for your fast response. The submission for a new record has been accepted. I've had to make some changes based on ISFDB standards. Publication entry standards are found on this page. If you're working from an actual copy of the book, you should to a Primary Verification of the record (help linked in the Welcome section above).
- These changes were made: Publication date was changed to "2013-05-26", the ISFDB format for dating May 26, 2013. Publication format/binding field was changed to "ebook". Formats for electronic books are given in the Note field. Also, ANTHOLOGY is the type of publication containing stories by more than one author. Books containing stories by only one author should be typed as COLLECTION.
- These additions were made: price, link to the cover image, and Kindle ASIN were sourced from Amazon.com.
- A few questions and concerns: The Amazon listing doesn't give a publisher name, nor is it listed in the book according to Amazon's "Look Inside". If you're certain that KDP is the publisher, you should give the source for that in the record's Note field. Also, if you're aware of the cover designer/artist's name, please give that in the Artist1 field.
