Welcome!

Hello, Thomas Bull, 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:

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! MHHutchins 07:26, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

Borderlands Magazine

Your submissions adding the first three issues of this periodical have been accepted into the database. A few questions/concerns:

  • The editorials in each issue have been disambiguated with the title of the issue to keep them from being merged with identically titled records. A question; all three issues contained editorials by Stephen Dedman, although you've given Simon Oxwell as the editor of the issues. What is Dedman's role in the magazine?
  • In the note field, you have to add an HTML line break in order to create a new line. Enter "<br>" at the end of the line if you want to start a new one. A simple "enter" stroke on your keyboard isn't recognized in this field.
  • I'm assuming you have copies of these issues and can do a primary verification of the records (see the link in the Welcome section about how to verify data). If you don't have copies, you should record the source for your data in the record's note field.
  • The first and third issue were published by Borderlands Press, while the second was published by Borderlands Publications Incorporated. Is the publisher stated differently in the issues?
  • There was no price given for any of the issues. If there is no stated price enter "A$0" in the field. (I'm assuming this is an Australian publication.)

Thanks for contributing. Mhhutchins 15:46, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
