First draft
If you have never added information to a Wiki before, read both the general [[help]] section in addition to the guidelines below.
Adding a title to the Recommended Reading implies that you have read the book!
In line with any contribution to the FIBIWiki you may not use other people's reviews (or part thereof) without their express permission and without citing the original reviewer as the source.
Use the standard layout:
* Author's surname, First names
The title. [format, if non-book] Place of publication: Publisher, date of publication.
Followed by your review (approximately 150 words is a good length).
In writing your recommendation, please consider:
Why you are recommending the title
What it is about and how thoroughly the subject is covered
What are the important locations,time periods and names to include
Whether it is authoritative and accurate (mention any reservations you may have)
Who might benefit from, or enjoy, reading the title
Any significant features (eg illustrations, index, etc)
All entries in the Recommended Reading lists are grouped by subject, irrespective of format, and arranged in alphabetical order. Please add your entry to the most appropriate section.
If you need assistance, or would like to comment about the Recommended Reading section, please [[contact]] the FIBIS Books Coordinator, who will be happy to assist.
Note that it is inappropriate for authors or publishers to recommend their own books. Instead, please [[contact]] the FIBIS Editor to arrange the supply of a free copy of the book for review purposes.
