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.

Xenotech Rising
Hello, I've approved your submission for this novel but made a few changes to conform to our standards: 1) changed title series to simply " Xenotech Support" (you may later incorporate this series in a larger "Galactic Free Trade Association" series), 2) added currency symbol (I supposed USD in your case), 3) trimmed a bit the synopsis, 4) transferred the link to your site at series level, 5) deleted artist credit as given (you'll be considered the artist if you did draw yourself the cover art), in this case the "artist" may (if you want) be NASA, note that the designer (in this case Dan Paulson) is also not considered as the cover artist, and 6) uploaded a nicer (and bigger) scan into our system. The result is here for the book itself and here for the title record and here for the title series. Thanks for contibuting. Hauck 13:08, 23 August 2016 (UTC)
Merci! Thanks for fixing things up for me. Dan Paulson is a pseudonym of mine. I consider myself the cover designer, not the cover artist, and am glad to just leave all that off. The only reason I used "Galactic Free Trade Association" is because that is the subtitle of the work on Amazon. Again, I really appreciate your help and look forward to adding the other books in the series soon. Much obliged! Dave Schroeder 13:43, 23 August 2016 (UTC)
