Choosing logical album series names (subseries within a series) is another weak point in many series. It is important to standardize this. Does anyone have any good ideas about this? I personally think that we should at least use the name “Main series” for series where there is no discussion about the main series. This can possibly be further specified in “Main series SC” and “Main series HC” if they are issued in two versions.
Other names that we can use generically?

In some cases the series themselves already have a name, such as “the funniest adventures” by o.i.d. I also see that the publisher name is frequently used as a series name. It is especially messy when there are many different loose, special editions, as is the case with Donald Duck. But don't know if anything can really be done about it ...

By assigning eg main series sc, preferably with the name of the series (perhaps we have to work with abbreviations (franka HR SC )) you prevent this if click on your main series in the start menu that you will see the main series of all series.
Do we have to define what the main series is exactly.

That's a good point, yes. I hadn't thought of that yet. This works because of series transcending album series such as Collection Young Europe, Free Flight, etc. Indeed, it seems to me a good solution to use “[series name / hero] Main series SC or HC” by default. For new users it is useful that there is main series instead of HR, which is not an established concept in contrast to SC and HC. Agree?

Hello René,
And perhaps that the Main Series in the input form can also be placed between Title and Album Series, would probably provide a lot of clarity.
Greetings,
René

@ 1Comicworld
But “Main Series” is just an album series, right? The main series is the main album series of a series / hero. Or am I wrong?

Hello deblouw,
Main series is the all-encompassing concept ... so Spiderman, with underneath the Album series: all series that have been published ... Classics Lektuur, Oberon, Juniorpress editions and Z-press editions, and therefore various series (with publisher designation) such as Web from Spiderman, Spider-man, Peter Parker and specials.
Greetings,
René Visser

Indeed. That's how I meant it. If there is Main Sequence in the album sequence, it must be the most important, best-known album sequence of the particular series or hero. Maybe also an idea to open series with this in the photo gallery instead of with all albums from all album series and then sorted by year as is the case now.

Yes, but the main series coexists with the other album series, isn't it an album series? Spiderman is not the main series, but what you enter under series / hero at the bottom. Next, give the main album series in the Spiderman category the title “Main series Spiderman” under album series. Right?

Each album is in an album series. That is a series of albums that form a logical sub-series within the series / hero. For example, “The blue series” is a logical sub-series within the series / hero Suske & amp; Wiske. Album series is a field that can be filled in for each album. If it contains main series, it is the most important of the album series of that series. The normal four-color series is still running at Suske & amp; For example, Wiske the main sequence seems to me.

Hello forummensae,
So confusion… that's why I plead for:
Title
Main series
Album series
and then, for the sake of clarity, not to give an album series the same name as a main series ... so with Spiderman, for example, replace the Spiderman album series with Spiderman JP ... I hope I can perform administrator tasks quickly ... then I will definitely change that if it is nowhere else collides with it.
Greetings,
René Visser

Something is indeed going wrong with the order of messages :-) We have several web servers. The clocks may not be completely synchronized. We need to fix that quickly.
My response “Indeed. That's how I meant it. ” was meant in response to deblouw's post now under that comment.
The way I see it, the main sequence is indicated by giving a special name to an album sequence.
But I now understand that René Visser wants to be able to tick the album series that is the main series and does not necessarily want to put it in the name of that album series. There is also something to be said for that. Then the main series at Suske & amp; Wiske “Four-color series” will continue to be called.

no, then I got it. Main Sequence is simply a name for the main album sequence.

Hello forummensae,
Still confusion ... that's why I still advocate:
Title
Main series
Album series

I hope I can perform administrator tasks quickly ... then I will definitely change that if it is nowhere else collides with it.
Someone a different opinion?

Hi René,
I think we mean the same thing. I see indeed that with the series Spiderman there is an album series also called Spiderman. That is confusing. It is indeed better to call that album series Spiderman JP. That is the main album series, you could also call it “main series”.
The only difference of opinion I think is whether you use the word “main series” in the name of the main album series - in this case eg “Spiderman JP main series” or whether you indicate the main album series by marking it in one place as Main sequence. In that case, the main album series is called “Spiderman JP” and that album series is marked somewhere to indicate that this is the main album series (also called main series).
René S.

I'm starting to get lost a bit now with “album series” and “main series”.
The definition does not become clear.
an example if I understand… ..
main sequence: suske and wiske
album series: four-color series, or eg mini albums, ...
I am used to working with “Series” - “Album series” - and “Album title (s)”.
What Rene says last doesn't really get through to me.
I can no longer recognize the simplicity from what Rene says now.

Series - Album Series - Title is indeed the correct order. The only thing that could be introduced in addition to this is to indicate the main album series (you could call it main series).

You could call it that, yes, but is it really the intention that we also type it into Catawiki like that? I suddenly see, for example, albums change from "Oberon releases" to "Main series sc".
Is it really the intention to change this or is there a function in Catawiki to "designate" that main series?

Maybe that's for the best. That we can indicate what the main series is and that the photo gallery opens with it.
With the author you could open as already happened I think because it is interesting to see chronologically (sorted by year) what an author has made.

Rene,
an album series Bee Dee has been entered twice. (for some reason I don't understand this happened while entering a Bee Dee album, even though I just clicked Bee Dee)
1 of them is now empty. Would you like to remove it please?

There are indeed two "Bee Dee release" series. However, one of the two contained 5 albums, though. I have now converted it to the one that contains all other albums. So it is only now empty.
I also see two publishers "Bee Dee" in the database, both with a large collection of albums, René.
Maybe you can merge them yourself?

in the album series we now often have volumes….
if you now look up donald duck and then click volume 2009, you will now find donald duck magazine and donald duck extra in it
we do not opt for a refinement here
especially as there is more and more detailed input from the magazines, those lists will become more chaotic

The agreements regarding album series approaches are still not entirely clear to me. A name such as “ Publisher name publications” is now often chosen, even when a series simply has a name. This happened for example with the series "Nightfall" of 24 and with the main series of Scrooge McDuck. As far as I am concerned, we only use “ Publisher name issues” if there is really no other title to come up with, but I don't know what others think about this?
