Welcome!
Hello, Dshoney, 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! Hauck 09:40, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
Under the Bed
Hello, I've approved your submission for this magazine but had to made extensive changes to conform to our standards: 1) changed publisher to "eFiction Publishing" as per their website, 2) deleted number of pages (meaningless for an ebook) and page numbers (I've ordered the lot), 3) added currency symbol (we're an international database), 4) added ISBN as per "Look Inside" from amazon, 5) regularized "J.G. Grimmer" to "J. G. Grimmer" (we force spaces between initials), 6) linked title to correct webpage at publisher's site (we do not link to retailers), 7) changed title format and put it into its proper title series, 8) uploaded cover scan (note that artist is uncredited). The result is here. Note that the editor is perhaps this person. Thanks for contributing. Hauck 10:03, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
Under the Bed, Vol. 3 No. 3
Hello, as there's visibly a (retroactive) change in the magazine for this issue, there were some problems in your submission that I had to adress: 1) I've deleted the ISBN (not visible in amazon's "Look Inside" and similar for every issue which is quite strange), 2) changed "C.A; Griffin" to "C. A. Griffin" as evoked before, 3) changed the interviewer to "uncredited", 4) deleted all the reviews as they must be linked to existing ISFDB titles (if you feel strongly about them you can either add the publications reviewed if they fell on our scope then link the reviews or add corresponding ESSAYs).
