But surely it should be impossible to add a completely identical name (as a duplicate)?!

In the old input form this was indeed impossible, even if you used capital letters instead of lower case letters, the system merged this itself.
I will report this as a bug with the new form.

Can you also suppress a space at the end?
How is 'the system' supposed to know whether or not there is something more to come?
If the name consists of multiple words?
Apples
Apples and pears
One word will probably do the trick...
1cm and 1cm are 2 different things on LD I think...

And I don't think there's much you can do about that...
And I think that spaces at the beginning and end of each field to be filled in can be suppressed (removed) before saving.

Not entirely impossible to insert the same/identical name into a dropdown list.
My system does not recognize spaces.
So:
Country (space before 'country')
Country (no space before and after 'country')
Country (space after 'country')
And I don't think there's much you can do about that...

There is now only one Publisher general name "Country".
When entering the name Country, you then have to scroll down (the dropdown sometimes needs to load) until you find Country and select it.

When you enter Country, do you select the already existing Country name?
Or do you click on the blue marked New Value? Because that creates a new value.
[Edit - I'll try to merge them]

Can someone please have a look at what is going wrong here? It seems that every time I enter the name; Country in "Publisher general name" a new name is created.

vertigo Oops, I'll have to check that out, it won't be easy with the collection I have, but I'll do my best. Is it an idea if I (temporarily) give them the name "Amsterdam (logo)" under "Publisher as on card"?

Greenhorn vertigo : is it correct or added? search result :
Brockhaus' Kleines Konversations-Lexikon, fünfte Auflage, Band 1. Leipzig 1911., S. 60
A library link to the text/image in question, although there is rounding compared to the 'spikes' end
On the same page to another item ( Meyers) 1905 > Amsterdam [2] there is another coat of arms

Apparently they were made in Amsterdam. Can you give some examples of cards with this logo? (that way we can maybe determine the period of use of this logo)

That is the city coat of arms of Amsterdam. I don't think any individual publisher (other than the city of Amsterdam itself) can claim that as a logo.

I am also a supporter of this 'requirement', but I do not think it can be realized. Collectors and sellers of these items often want to show more in the catalogue than the front, back and possibly the title page. And images 'for illustration' also say something about the nature of a publication.

However, I can imagine that overly explicit photos (without the need for mention) will be rejected in line with what is stated in paragraph 5.2.2 letter b of the Terms of Use.

I think I would be in favor of making it a “requirement” for images to be entered into the catalog that they add information relevant to the item. The average gynaecological search plate from the Rosie would not meet that requirement. In your own collection, of course, no restrictions should apply.

Pictures purely "for illustration" do not need to be in the catalogue in my opinion. (And that also applies to more innocent items.)

stripspeldjes
Totally agree! However, after the expansion of the number of images to be entered, 'pictures for illustration' have become almost unavoidable.

With that last remark I actually meant something like random pages from a comic book, just to illustrate the style. Innocent, but also unnecessary.

I'm not a prude either, but I would like to know what the administrators think. Do you expect such pictures innocently in the lingerie catalog or in the erotic catalog?

The "trick" (for the user) is of course to simply enter a false date of birth. You can't do anything about that.

What has bothered me for a while is that quite a few porn magazines were/are being introduced at Magazines with very explicit photos from the inside as the third image (and 4th, 5th, etc.). I am not a prude (I have had such magazines too), but the front and back are usually intimate enough and more than sufficient for identification. Pictures purely "for illustration" do not need to be in the catalogue as far as I am concerned. (And that also applies to more innocent items.)

If someone is found to be deliberately removing that protection for an incorrect reason, they will be blocked from editing/entering items. Admins can report this to me.
