I think a subset field would be a very good option indeed.
So "Fine Sequence" for example could be called as a substring if I understand correctly, right?
But entering “In the Lord of the Ring” as a series, I have a different opinion about it.
There is only 1 “In de Ban van de Ring”, admittedly in many revised editions, but that also applies to the other stories of Tolkien. In my opinion it is a Title, not a Series.
When I pick up a book from, say, Tolkien, the first thing I read is “Tolkien” (JRR).
When I start searching in a database, I tend to type in “Series”, “Tolkien”, and not “Prisma books” or “Spectrum books”.

We are still going to take care of curiosities, but you can already lose them there (go to Bommel and then choose curios under “Bommel and Tom Poes”).
Curiosa will soon be set up in such a way that when you enter it you can first choose a type where stamp is one of the options. After that choice you will get the input fields for the postage stamps section (which indeed still has to be completely overhauled and has to be filled; that will all come along) where there will also be a Themes field where Comics is automatically filled in when stamps are entered as curiosities. in Comics. These stamps can therefore be seen immediately in the Stamps section in the Comics theme.

In 1996 Bommel stamps were published. There is a stamp folder and also a first day envelope that is specially issued for subscribers to the Panda edition. Incidentally, stamps of other cartoon characters have also appeared.
What do we do with that. I have looked at the postage section, but it is slightly (sic) less extensive than the comic section. For the time being I have not encountered them in the catalog. The Dutch PTT has been a bit active for a while, but the Belgian postal services are much more active in issuing comic strip stamps

I understand that you are looking for Family Fortune at the F :-)
But are you looking for Bommel at the H?

Yes, there could be an extra field. But filling in the Netherlands or Belgium is a bit too far for me
(Although there are also German speakers in Belgium, so theoretically a publication that is German could come from Belgium. released. Nondeju!)
And what do you do with editions released by co-publishers Dargaud and Oberon?
Can you enter two countries?
Seems confusing again, in one way or another.

I don't really know why.
We don't sort comic book heroes by last name, do we?
I really look for the Fortuin family at the F. And Dokter Zwitser at the D.

Several people have expressed the need for a “Country” field that indicates in which country the album was released. A.o. on the occasion of a Swiss advertising issue of Citroën with Tintin. Because Swiss is not a language, it is not possible to indicate via the language field that it is a Swiss edition.
Although I initially thought that publishers publish for a language area and the country of publication is not that important, I think it would be a good idea to add this field now because of this example. What do you think? I don't think it necessary to enter the Netherlands or Belgium if it concerns expenditure in those countries, or do you think so?

Indeed, please also include the Helmond and Albracht editions separately. Interesting to be able to see those variants and indeed, the Lombards are often worth more. In Belgium, especially the Lombards are sought.

Great action Arco!
According to me, correct images of first editions of Alex 5 (sc) to 8 had not yet been entered. I don't have them myself.
Who has them and adds the scans?

In the same vein: what do we do with prefixes like Heer, Aunt, etc.? Also behind it seems to me. So:
“Bommel and Tom Poes, Sir”. Or do you see it differently?

It is always difficult - even - to classify books. Sometimes they are included in a series and sometimes they are separate.
I initially chose the series, as stated on the book, but it can also be different
perhaps a subset of field

Yes, that is not good.
In new collection areas I saw that there were some errors in those books and I corrected them.
So I had no overview of the entire series. In my opinion, these are indeed duplicates.

Shouldn't serial names also include “Under the spell of the ring” as a series?
By the way, do you think that a sub-series field is also needed for books (such as album series for comics)?

I noticed that there were three albums added, double, because they had already been entered by me. Collector Blueberry has introduced this, and Arco has made last change.
These are parts 10, 11 and 12.

Hihihi…
If you count all administrator changes (they don't appear in the statistics) then I think there are already 10,000s!
Thanx!
(Unfortunately for you guys, I feel more and more fitter, and so… less Catawiki time.)

Arco, you have already improved over 10,000 fields in the catalog in a few weeks. Almost unbelievable but really true. Congratulations on this milestone!

Over the past few days, I've been digging into ISBN numbers. I was especially interested if you can deduce the dashes between the numbers. That turns out to be the case. If you're interested in this, check out isbn.org
What I think is the best solution is that you can enter both with and without dashes when entering, which you find the easiest. Subsequently, the dashes are automatically placed in the right place when displayed. I expect to internally store the ISBN number without hyphens to make it easier to look up.
What I also want to do is check if it is a correct ISBN number (based on the last number). This also increases the quality of the input.
I just need to figure out the hyphenation rules for ISBN -13.

Over the past few weeks we have had a large number of comments and suggestions around entering stories. This weekend, a large number of changes have been made to the site around the introduction of stories. This makes it easier to enter stories.
The main changes:
  • You can now also enter multiple stories with multiple screenwriters and illustrators for a new comic book album.
  • Some browsers required you to click the "add story" link multiple times before anything happened. Has now been resolved.
  • The sorting of the stories has been improved. Stories that do not have a number are shown last.
  • Layout when entering multiple stories has been improved.
    Thanks to everyone who provided feedback.
    Marco
