Betwixt is a new speculative fiction magazine that just published their third issue in April 2014. Should they get an entry? http://betwixtmagazine.com/

Yes. If you feel that it should be in the database, please create individual records for each issue. Go to this help page for field-by-field instructions. If you need further assistance, ask at the ISFDB: Help desk. Mhhutchins

Questar

This magazine was published between 1978 and 1981 (13 issues). Most issues included original and/or reprint sf stories (though the first couple issues had no fiction, I think; but the last few issues credited H. L. Gold as fiction editor). Is there a reason there are no records of it here, or may I start creating records of individual issues?--Steeltown Jim 23:14, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
