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.

Ad Astra magazine
Many thanks for your submission of a seemingly missing issue. However, as it is one of the more complicated things to add to an existing magazine series (and it would be a miracle for anyone to have it initially right), I have put your submission on hold to get some things into order:
1) Which number is the copy of the issue you have in hand? (Ad Astra, Issue Twelve, for example, was the August 1980 issue).
2) Was it intentional to add no contents (that is, would you enter them in a second step)?
3) We have the publisher as just 'Rowlot': 'Rowlot Ltd., London' would establish a new publisher that would have published only the new issue.
4) The binding wasn't entered, the term pub. format would be better. I know that existing issues also have no binding, but maybe it's one of the more common possibilities as 'quarto', 'bedsheet', 'A4' or 'A5'?. Stonecreek 20:25, 17 June 2015 (UTC)
- After a week, no response, so I rejected your submission: it would have been a stub record that doesn't fit with the other issues. Also, the image you supplied is hosted by a site that we do not have permission to link to. Sorry. Stonecreek 20:26, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
