Abstract
This article presents ongoing empirical research on the topic of Inducks, an open access, online database offering an indexing and cataloguing service of Disney comics for approximately twenty countries. Created and used by collectors and editors of the Disney comics universe, who continue to add contributions, this database is at the center of a reorganizational process regarding documentary and editorial practices related to Disney comics, and thus can be studied as an ideal space of problematization where both amateurs and professionals interact. Beginning with a cross-analysis of the various documentary practices of these two types of actors (including indexing, referencing, consultation and exchange practices) this paper questions the documentary, editorial, and socio-professional implications surrounding the adoption of this documentary tool by professionals within the dynamics of editorialization.
