==  Unknown [UK], December 1940  ==
 
 
Hello, I've approved your submission for this issue but had to make extensive changes to conform to our standards:
 
* deleted SerieNumber (30017?).
 
* added publisher (Atlas Publishing and Distribution Co. Ltd), you can find it on the bottom of the bc.
 
* added price as per cover.
 
* added number of pages.
 
* we're not allowed to deeplink to the specified website so I had to resize and upload the cover into our system.
 
* somewhat streamlined the notes and added source.
 
* changed <i>Black Cats</i>'s type from SHORTIFTION to POEM.
 
* merged the "new" titles with the already existing ones, thta had the side effect of regularizing your used capitalization.
 
The result is [http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/pl.cgi?653721 here], you can now, if you want, add the INTERIORART records that were kept. Thanks for contributing but please take some time to study how such issues are entered (like [http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/pl.cgi?359969 this one]).

:I've also make quite extensive changes for [http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/pl.cgi?653722 this other issue]. [[User:Hauck|Hauck]] 03:40, 21 February 2018 (EST)
 
 
== Unknown [UK], November 1939  ==
 
 
Hello, I've approved your submission but with some changes:
 
* as one of our idiosyncrasies, the first piece of INTERIORART is not numbered in brackets (see [http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/pl.cgi?61851 here for an example]).
 
* in the case of your submission, some of the drawings are clearly signed (bottom of page 9 and other for example), so I've credited the lot to the canonical name of the artist ("Frank Kramer").
 
* then, using [http://www.unz.org/Pub/Unknown-1939nov?View=Pages this source] I've matched the drawings in the UK issue with their originals in the US issue (some were left out by the british publisher).
 
This was a quite lengthy and purely technical procedure so don't worry too much if it's unclear for the moment. [[User:Hauck|Hauck]] 03:50, 23 February 2018 (EST)
 
 
 
== Issues on Internet Wayback Machine (archive.org) not on isfdb ==
 
 
I've created an index of SF magazine scans on this site, and trying to connect each one to its
 
corresponding record on isfdb. In the process I found some that are not listed here.
 
 
If anyone else wants to enter these into the database, you have my blessing.

Hello, I've put your submission on hold. For a start, can you confirm that all texts are spec-fic? [[User:Hauck|Hauck]] 08:56, 8 March 2018 (EST)
 
 
:No I cannot, it's a non-spec-fic multiple genre magazine (hence the title). What I can confirm is that "Beyond Space and Time" by Joel Townsley Rogers is spec-fic: [http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/title.cgi?57764 this entry on ISFDB] [[User:Factoficacc|Factoficacc]] 19:09, 9 March 2018 (EST)
 
:I made another with only that story; you can delete the previous one. [[User:Factoficacc|Factoficacc]] 19:19, 9 March 2018 (EST)
 
::And forgot to include source and cover scan info, that's in the previous one. [[User:Factoficacc|Factoficacc]] 19:19, 9 March 2018 (EST)
 
:::I approved the new version and added the source info. We do not add cover art for non-genre stories unless it illustrates the genre story (which isn't the case here). You can cancel your own submissions by going to "My Pending Edits" on the left hand menu on the database pages. Thank you for making the changes. --&nbsp;[[User:JLaTondre|JLaTondre]] ([[User talk:JLaTondre#top|talk]]) 19:56, 9 March 2018 (EST)
