Welcome!

Hello, StevenSaylor, 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:

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 21:36, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

Margaret St. Clair's "The Espadrilles

This story was first published in Famous Fantastic Mysteries, April 1953. The date given on the table of contents page (as seen in this PDF) is a misprint. Look at the bottom of the page and you'll see that it is copyrighted for 1953.

To bring errors to the attention of other ISFDB moderators, please leave a message on the ISFDB:Moderator noticeboard, or make a submission that corrects the error. If the record has been Primary Verified, first leave a message on that editor's talk page. Do not make submissions to update records (or author data) without making changes to the record. The "Note to Moderator" field is used to give information about the changes made in the record.

Thanks for contributing. Mhhutchins 21:46, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

On Eric St. Clair

Thank you very much for your find! I have added the remarks you gave to the author's biography page, with a slightly altered formulation (mainly changing the order of the sentences). I hope this is alright for you; please change it to your liking. Thank you again, Stonecreek 16:50, 19 May 2014 (UTC)

"Mistress of Virdis/Viridis"

I have to reject your submission to change the title of a story contained in this publication. You may not have seen that the record has been primary verified, which means that an editor with a copy of the publication has confirmed that the data is accurate. That doesn't mean the record or the editor is infallible. If you have a copy of the same magazine, please do a second primary verification of the record, and then leave a message on the talk page of the other primary verifying editor, before making another submission to correct the title.

Keep in mind that titles are taken from the page on which the story appears, not from the cover or the contents page. If the work appears in another publication under a different title, we can variant one record to the other so that both appear publications appear on its title page. Thanks.
