American Supernatural Tales
Thanks for adding the contents to this publication. Because most (if not all) of these stories are already in the database, once a new record is added it's necessary to merge the new record with the existing one, so that all publications of any particular story will appear on the summary page of that story's title record. There is a help page that will show you how to merge titles. If you have any questions or would rather not do the merges yourself, you can respond below on this page (your user talk page). For help on communicating through this wiki, there is a link in the Welcome section above. Thanks for contributing. Mhhutchins 18:54, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
- I've merged the stories with the existing records. I also changed the page count to "xxxiii+477" based on the OCLC record, and added Joshi's introduction. If you have the book please check to see if these are correct, especially if the introduction has its own title (I chose the generic one until it can be verified).
