So, looks like a friend convinced me to start (re?) building some kind of my personal #media #catalogue where I will try to gather my thoughts and impressions from various #Books #Podcasts #Series #Audiodrama that I 'read' in the past.
It's on a #NeoDB here:

Putting the article body tags in inline code didn't "deactivate" the tags on Mastodon. I guess I'll just delete the hashes.

Oops, #NeoDB articles have a separate field for hashtags, so I assumed only tags there would "count", not also ones in the article body. Still learning.

@enriquericos

You're welcome :)

You can also import people into #NeoDB !

E.g. Jami Gertz not hyperlinked on Solarbabies page

1. Copy IMDb URL for her
2. Enter it into NeoDB search box
3. Wait a bit
4. Copy the rest of the NeoDB URL after the instance: /person/3cGeIV9BvfgO9btwihvdQZ
5. Edit the Solarbabies page & paste that into the box with her name (replacing her name)
6. Save

Now her name is hyperlinked to a NeoDB page about her, not just plain text

#NeoDB (fediverse alternative to #Letterboxd etc) was started by Chinese folk & originally imported much data from Chinese sites like Douban. Which means often a media page has lots of/only Chinese

You can manually add English/other languages, but also you can import data from another source like IMDb, which will turn a lot of info into English

- Copy the IMDb (or other compatible source) URL
- Paste & enter it into the search box on NeoDB
- Wait a bit
- Media page will update

For #Letterboxd refugees & other newcomers to #NeoDB ( #Fediverse media catalogue), a collection on NeoDB is like a list on Letterboxd or #IMDb

When you make a collection, there is no 'cover image' automatically created by NeoDB but you can add one yourself

Usually I get an image from https://openclipart.org/ & tweak it in an image editor. And I'm *terrible* at image editing 😁 If I can do it, so can you!
