Welcome!
Hello, Gomihead, 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|talk 23:03, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
Pyre
I'm holding your submission to add a publication for this title. The data you've provided doesn't match the listing on Amazon.com. Their listing co-credits C. M. Stultz. Also, they don't give the publisher as Amazon.com, but as "CreateSpace". Their "look-inside" doesn't give a publisher credit at all.
There are a few more problems with the submission: the price field gives the unnecessary "USD". The currency symbol "$" when used in ISFDB records is understand to stand for US dollars. Also, a softcover book that is taller than 7 inches should be entered as "tp" (for trade paperback) instead of "pb" (which stands for a mass-market format paperback.)
Also, you gave a link to the Amazon listing in the cover image URL field. That field is for the URL of the image file, not the webpage.
I can correct all this if you can confirm the changes that I've given here. Thanks. Mhhutchins|talk 23:11, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
