User talk:Jacqke

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:

• Help pages
• Help:Getting Started
• What the ISFDB Wiki is for
• ISFDB FAQ
• Wiki editing help - Tips on how to use the wiki-specific features when editing wiki pages.
• Wiki Conventions - How things are usually done on this wiki.

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)

Images

Accepted your edit adding an image and artist credit to [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! --~ Bill, Bluesman 18:45, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks! I am sure of Hofmann's name; spent a great deal of time researching his book covers.Jacqke 18:59, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks! And the second image worked fine. --~ Bill, Bluesman 19:03, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Changing verified pubs

It is ISFDB Policy that an editor notify anyone who has done a primary verification of a publication record. You've made two submissions changing the cover artist from "Hofmann" to "William Hofmann" in two such records. Just click on the name of the editor who verified the pubs (Logan's Run and The Joy Makers), which leads to their user page. Clicking on "Discuss This Page" leads to their user talk page. Just leave a message about the changes you're making in the record. Some editors have specific directions about how changes to their verified pubs should be handled. I'll approve the submissions once the verifiers have been notified. Thanks. Mhhutchins 05:24, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks! I'll get it done. Jacqke 13:37, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

I saw the note on my talk page. Always good to have another mystery solved. I uploaded Hofmann's signature to the Signature page so the artist can be identified for other pubs. Also changed the credit for my copy of The Unicorn Girl. Thanks, --Willem H. 22:19, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks! That signature page is a great idea.
