lethe | 16372 comments Hey Susie, what magic did you perform? I thought Michael had added it just like that:
Prix du Festival d'Angoulême for Prix spécial du jury (2014)
but it appeared separately, not as part of the list already on GR.

... Ah, I get it. It has to be entered in the awards field and subfield for the category.

Yeah, it's supposed to automatically categorise the "for" and such, but doesn't always work, so best to add the award name, then go back into edit the book then click on "edit" next to the award to add in the other details (you always have to go back in anyway to uncheck if they were a nominee rather than a winner. Plus going via the book's edit screen saves searching a long award's page...!).

Susie (dragonsusie) | 2469 comments #54 updated. Changed the language to "multiple languages", as there is no possibility for adding two languages. But have also kept the Italian description and added the French description above, being as the title is in French first.

Tumblr is not an approved source for covers.

Fortunately, this book is already in the database with the correct author name: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Will ask for a merge.

What is on the last 5 pages?
