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.

Apex Magazine, January 2017
Hello, I've approved your submission for this issue but had to make some chnages to conform to our standards: 1) changed all dates to 2017-01 (cover date trumps all), 2) regularized "J.J. Litke" to "J. J. Litke" (spaces are mandatory), ditto for Wise, 3) deleted one extra EDITOR record (titled Apex Magazine - 2016) that would mess up things, 4) uploaded a scan into our system as we're not allowed to deeplink to the specified website, 5) added title series "Apex Magazine" to put the issue in the proper grid, 6) regularized Sturgis' name and varianted the essay. The result is here. Thanks for contributing. Hauck 19:30, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
Thanks!
This was my first submission, so I should get better with practice.
I'm struggling to figure out how to connect a magazine issue with the list of issues for that year--or how to create a new series for the new year. I hunted and hunted in the help text, but couldn't find it.
