I can't find the item for a while but I did read it on the forum. I have entered a Laurel and Hardy tear-off calendar with film and TV collectibles, but can I also enter it with celebrities or do I have to do that with a link? I'd love to hear it.

I have already found it, so I can use both, then I will re-enter some items in the other section where they are not listed.

@ Jodieke

You can find it here

However, just like Celebrities, Animals and Brands, it is a section that is indirectly filled with items that are in other sections.
Most of these semi-themed sections suffer a bit of a languishing existence, as the link to these sections is not created nine times out of ten. Both legally and figuratively.

I have 3 fantasy coins and a Harry Potter magic wand in original boxes. Where should I place it?

I assume that the coins should not be added to coins. They are fantasy coins.

And do I have to place the coins all 3 separately or can it be together with the box?

That's right. We are going to set up the theme sections again on the basis of a central theme register, making it easier to indicate per item what the theme is. However, this is not easy in terms of both technology and content (theme classification) and therefore takes quite some effort. We do see it as a big improvement of the catalog so it will certainly come.

Fantasy coins can be here.
That tokens section has no real administrator, and therefore no real rules for the entry.
The safest is per piece I think.
You can also place the box with the magic wand next to others.
Please from the film TV section, so that it will be shown there immediately.

@ pegag

Thanks for the link; would never have found it myself! But I do not yet understand how the link works correctly. For example, I entered a DVD (1969213), and at Series / hero stated "Bugsy Malone". Shouldn't I find that name under Series / heroes / stars, or that doesn't work?

Two things.

First of all, looking at the history of the item, it seems to me that you entered it in the DVD section.
If you enter it in the "Movie / TV collectibles" heading, you will get an extra field at the top called " Series, Hero or Star "
That field causes it to be displayed in the "Film / TV collectibles" section.
The field " Series / Hero " is purely a DVD rubric field.

Secondly, I wonder if it makes much sense to put the films themselves in the "Film / TV collectibles" section.
It may be, but this section is actually intended for curiosities (posters, photos, dolls and the like).
If we would like to have all DVDs included, we can easily give all items in the DVD section the theme "Movie" in the future.
Are you ready in one sitting.
But then you also have to give all comics the theme "comic", and all music the theme "music"
Personally, this does not seem like the path to follow for the theme headings automatically generated in the future.
A DVD does not have a theme movie, it is a movie.

@ Arwin,

Thanks for your explanation. The purpose of this subsection is already much clearer to me. Also have lobby cards from movies. Will I also place it below?

And signed scripts from films? Where do they best end up? With Signatures / Movies? I only see signed photos there ..

Signatures is a really crazy rubric and I really wonder who came up with that. Everything that is in Catawiki can theoretically be provided with a signature. But in the end photos with a signature are just photos and therefore belong with photos. It would be nice if the idea behind the collection area 'Signatures' was explained briefly and concisely, accompanied by the method of how people think it should be put into practice. I don't see it yet.

@Arco, We got requests from some of the folks collecting celebrity autographs to start that section. This is also collected a lot in America and England. But you are right, the section started a bit quickly and thoughtlessly. Ultimately, signatures can be on everything. Anyone an idea how to implement this properly where signature collectors can clearly store their signatures and you can link a value to the signature?

@ arco,

I agree.
I prefer not to see this with the signatures , but just with the trading cards.

Collecting autographs is of course popular, especially in America I believe.

@ Jodie

Lobby cards are here

There is already a manuscript here

But maybe it would be better if you create the object "film script" in this "other" section .

and you can associate a value with the signature?

That makes it very tricky indeed.
For items that come with a signature by default, it is simple, but you can only re-enter normal items that have just been signed on (the value of the signature, separate from the object it is on, seems illogical to me ).
And then you quickly have a duplicate.

Or we should agree not to see this as duplication ...

You mean Johnsen.
Because you don't like black women, or do you just think she's ugly?

Does not seem feasible, because then every book with assignment becomes a new item in the database.

This should be done at the collection \ shop level and not at the database level.

It is possible that an extra (check?) Field can be added to that level to indicate that the item in question has a (signature) drawing \ command. This could be a numeric field to be filled in by the owner. The content of that field could then adjust the value of that collection \ shop instance without affecting the base instance in the database.

it is of course important that you can select that field if that field is checked. Then collectors can actively search for signed comics, books, photos and figurines in the range of shops and their own collections.

@Rene,

As you sometimes say: "Better half turned than completely lost".

I suggest that we move the few items that are now listed under signatures as a priority to the section where they belong and let users know about it. I would like to help with that.

Then figure out how we can implement signatures better (eg as Pegag suggests). In this way we prevent even more from being added, which means we will have a lot more work on it later on.

We could also temporarily set the rubric to invisible until we have a better solution. However, there are 8 collectors with signatures in their collection.

No, neither did I, hence the dots.
To be honest, adjusting all sections, because of 1 section, is going a bit too far, even if it could work.

@ Morits,

Old sweetheart ;-)

I think it's not that bad if you consider what people have signed. In any case, comics, books, photos, records and CDs, but also posters, figurines, postcards, folders and program books. Even trading cards ;-)

And for all those objects, the signature affects the value.

However, there are 8 collectors with signatures in their collection.

So there are a lot of people with signatures in their collection and / or shop. I have already sold something with a signature once or twice, because of that signature. But that is now only visible through the details field.

Yes, that's right again.
And with a lot I think of more than half.
The point is that in this way there will be no signatures section.
Personally, I think that's fine, especially if it is the case that such a column conflicts with just about every other column.
But I think René saw a lot of potential for such a column.

Maybe the section can be renamed to Artists handout card / photo or something?
That seems to cover the load nicely if I take a quick look. (didn't view all items)
Can most of it just stand like that, is fine for those 8.
Is a nicely enclosed gathering area too.
