        Which part is not good exactly? The ordering is not what you would expect?

        especially that, also that the differencialising text is very light and harder to read

        mostly that even if I spesifically set that an edition does not hae an author it still asks yo uto set one and the chekcbox is unset whne i go to edit thisedition for other reasons

        [22:58] ApeKattQuest so, here is a ting, I added tis book (gonna take soem time to add all the works because i have to create the authors, the works they are based from ,the excerpts and the in some cases originals transalted of. but this book has no "author" so i selected that. because i spesifically set that it doesnt havean author, it should not't prompt for people to add an author https://bookbrainz.org/edition/

      • ApeKattQuest
        bc1aac6d-6544-41fd-b9b6-5bcfda3bf19a it should onl do that with older books that where around befor we had author credits (imho) since we now must spesifically set that it doesn't have one whne we create edition)

        when adding a book, does it suffice to add a wikidata id for all the details? Is there a bot that imports bibliographic data from wikidata?
      • 2025-10-23 29631, 2025

      • monkey[m]
        shisma.: No there is currently no such bot
      • 2025-10-23 29633, 2025

      • ApeKattQuest

        There is a quadrillion tools to import things into musicbrainz. Is it possible to have the same for bookbrainz?

        I asked reosarevok about an userscript that fetched data from wikidata/musicbrainz but he said it would be "not trivial"
