Series Standards

Guide

Duplicate Series Names

For multiple series with the same name, adjust the additional series as follows:

  • Append (Author Name) to the series name
  • Append -AuthorName to the slug

When a series has been adapted into a different format (e.g., a manga that was novelized), we create a separate series for the adaptation:

  • The source format retains the series name (e.g., The Summer Hikaru Died)
  • For the adaptation, append (Format) to the series name (e.g., The Summer Hikaru Died (Light Novel)
  • For the adaptation, append -format to the slug (e.g., the-summer-hikaru-died-lightnovel)

Publisher Collections (E.g., Penguin Little Black Classics)

For publisher or other collections where only a specific edition of a book is part of the series, a Hardcover series should not be created. The book may be instead added to a list.
