When entering a book I came across the following item: CATALOG DATA LastDodo number: 7663761 Category: Books Title: Iene miene mutte Original title: Eeny Meeny Author: Arlidge, M.J. Publisher: De Boekerij Year: 2018 Type: Thriller Print: Reprint Type of book: Paperback Number of pages: 384 Dimensions: 14.0 x 21.5 cm ISBN13: 978-90-225-7622-9 This one seems to me the same as the book with LastDodo number 6787781 There is no ISBN and only one photo but I don't see any difference. Does anyone know if this is the case and if it can be adjusted? Thanks in advance.

If we take the importers at their word, they are different editions.

6787781 is a 3rd edition from 2016.

7663761 is a reprint (so 4th or later) from 2018.

Book Warehouse: "if we take the importers at their word, etc" "

For importers who have a hobby in using as many, if not all fields as possible, also for administrators, it is still a shame that there are only a few mandatory fields. For books, the title / type of book and 1 photo or scan. I have made a comment about that before, but then I get a little upset. With books and comics it is difficult, I realize that adding a back cover does not say everything and it is a utopia to photograph the colophon (more work than scanning and when scanning I do not fold my precious book or comic). more mandatory fields seems welcome to me.

You only have to enter what you know. Mandating fields will make things up that an administrator can hardly check, and therefore more nonsense in the catalog.

So if you are not (sure), leave field empty.

That's not my point. It would be nice if everyone fills in what they don't know. And makes the effort to put a back cover (for books and comic books and magazines etc) Apparently I don't formulate well.

My point was really only that, if there are two different years (especially with such recent books), you should assume that they have been filled in correctly. So they are not duplicates, as long as you cannot prove that the information is incorrect.

Harry, in your last 4 entries you have entered a year, and then indicate in details that it is an estimate.

I would put the estimated year in details, and not in the catalog, because now there is a year under the item that could be incorrect.

Basic Handbook:

Approximate year is known
In this case enter the estimated year and state in the details that this is an estimate.

So any guess is good ....

I said somewhere before that I disagree with the administrators.

With my last 4 imported books, either the colophon (with photo / scan and all) contains the year or reference to KB. It may be useful to indicate exactly which books are involved. Then I can "defend" myself. Yes and an estimate means that the year may not be the correct year. So I don't understand your "control" over my input.

Maybe this is also on the wish list for the reprogrammed site?
That - like the KB does - you can mark an estimated year between [brackets]?
Or maybe you can even enter a period?

Is a wish, but we will not include it now. This requires an extra field 'Year estimated yes / no'. And we no longer do maintenance on the old software. This is only possible after rewriting input pages.

Never mind, Harry. As Boekenmagazijn has already shown, what you did was good.

@Bookstore:

Sorry, I don't think the years in brackets are estimates at the KB. By the brackets they mean n.m. that the year is not mentioned in the book. When estimating, they use 'approx'.

You're right, Vertigo.

You could indeed also distinguish between estimated dates and years that have been verified in a different way.

Fazerco, I thought you were talking about book imports, that's what the subject was about., I didn't read properly again, you were talking about items, sorry. With curiosities and postcards it remains difficult to add an approximate date. With puzzles I have a contact and in the past for games Hongs games .. Apparently that would be merged with Flemish games archive, so that is also a source.

It's great that I now also know through Vertigo and Boekenmagazijn that KB indicates with those brackets that a year is not mentioned in the book. Never noticed. All in all, a useful discussion.

We certainly learn.

We use period in sugar bags. Most sugar sachets were dispensed in a 5 to 10 year period. Those are the old bags. The current stick is more difficult to date.

Nevertheless, I would like to return to my question of October 2. Here I asked if the ones listed below are not the same LastDodo number: 7663761 Category: Books Title: Iene miene mutte Year: 2018 Print: Reprint ISBN13: 978-90-225-7622-9 This one seems to me the same as the book with LastDodo number 6787781 There is no ISBN and only one photo on it but I don't see any difference. As an answer I received that 6787781 is a 3rd edition from 2016. 7663761 is a reprint (so 4th or later) from 2018. Now I wanted to enter mine, 38th edition 2020, but it is not the case that each edition has to be entered separately? The printing and year differ, but otherwise, also ISBN, they are the same. Since the one from 2016 has no photo of the back, ISBN number and colophon on it, it is quite difficult to make this distinction. Since it says on the inside that it is the 38th edition, it is better not to add it as the third photo and keep the ISBN number with my copy. If this is not correct, please let me know

According to the numbers 1791927 and 3659953 to the same book. Only there is 1 with comics and 1 with the books.

Now I also have such a copy myself, only paperback and not bound. I created it with the books, but I think I did this wrong .... Can number 8248695 can still be easily moved to the comics?

These are the books with the title "peanuts jubilee".

Yes, those are duplications (even with exactly the same scans, from the same importer).

Perhaps this is a good reason to move all Peanuts Jubilees to the book section, where I think they belong.

Fantastic book, by the way, I can recommend it to everyone.

Edit: I wanted to check the percentage of comics, but I can't track my copy right now.

I am still really looking for my way here, but when I entered a book I saw that Jelle Reumer, Jelle W. Reumer and Jelle W.F. Reumer. Is it possible to merge them since they are the same author?

Peanuts is difficult to manage, as most administrators do not know which editions are comic books and which are illustrated books. And the average importer immediately thinks of comics with this series and therefore often enters it there. So there is still a lot of tidying up.
