Welcome!

Hello, Jdspurlock, 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! BLongley 20:42, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

The Thrilling Comic Book Cover Art of Alex Schomburg

Thanks for your submission of the hardcover. I think we have the trade paperback already? If you're the real J. David Spurlock maybe you'd like to correct that edition too. BLongley 20:51, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

I'll let your submission through and make a few minor corrections. Binding of "hardcover book" should just be "hc" - we like to make such data entry far shorter and easier. I'll add the leading "The" - we go by exact title, as according to title page: so if the cover has the "The" but the title page omits it, please do let us know as it means we have the existing title wrong. And for some reason your submission has joint editors "J. David Spurlock" and "J. David Spurlock" - I presume we only need this stated once. BLongley 20:51, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for editing! BLongley 20:51, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

Oh, I also corrected "Shomburg" to "Schomburg". Note that if we've got one edition of the book already, it's probably simplest to use "Add Publication to This Title" rather than "Add New Nonfiction" - saves a bit of typing and merging. BLongley 20:57, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
I also am assuming that you are giving us permission to link to the image at www.vanguardproductions.net - we're happy to link to images on other sites if they give us permission, but we don't take such permission for granted as we don't want to leech bandwidth from other sites. The image can always be uploaded here instead. If you'd likely to give us carte blanche to link to any image at www.vanguardproductions.net, please let us know, and we'll set one of our over-worked developers on the task to make sure each image gets proper credit. For a one-off image, it's probably not worth-while though. BLongley 21:03, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
