Accepted your edit adding an image and artist credit to [[http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/pl.cgi?RTHBDSGXPL1969 this]] publication. However, even though you uploaded the image correctly, it did not display in the record. The URL that needs to be pasted into the record field is not the one that appears on the Upload page. Counterintuitive, I know! Once you have that page showing you can get the correct URL a couple of ways: right-click the image and choose "Copy Image Address", then paste; click on the image and then it will display on a page by itself [no Wiki data showing] then copy the URL from the bar and paste it into the field of the record. Nearly every new editor makes the same mistake. I found the image in the upload log and copied it into the record for you. One question: does the artist's name only have one 'f'? Usually see this name spelled as Hoffmann. Thanks for editing, and again welcome! --[[User:Bluesman|~ Bill, Bluesman]] 18:45, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Welcome!

Hello, Jacqke, and welcome to the ISFDB Wiki! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Please be careful in editing publications that have been primary verified by other editors. See Help:How to verify data#Making changes to verified pubs. But if you have a copy of an unverified publication, verifying it can be quite helpful. See Help:How to verify data for detailed information.

I hope you enjoy editing here! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will insert your name and the date. If you need help, check out the community portal, or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! --~ Bill, Bluesman 18:39, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
