Welcome!
Hello, Maybrick, 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
- Field-by-field guide to entering new publications into the database
- Help:Getting Started
- What the ISFDB Wiki is for
- 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.
- Help:How to upload images to the ISFDB wiki
Note: Image uploading isn't entirely automated. You're uploading the files to the wiki which will then have to be linked to the database by editing the publication record.
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! Mhhutchins 18:29, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
Uncanny Tales
I had to reject your submission to add a publication record for this magazine title. Each issue of a periodical should be entered as a separate publication record. Feel free to do this using the data on the Fiction Mags index. Thanks. Mhhutchins 18:36, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
I have created a record for the first issue. Please use that record and this help page as a guideline when adding other issues. Thanks. Mhhutchins 18:46, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
BTW, note that the editor field of the publication record is given as "uncredited" because he isn't actually credited in the issue. Per ISFDB standards, the record is then varianted to credit the actual editor (Melvin R. Colby). Mhhutchins 18:51, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
