Welcome!

Hello, HexagonSF, 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:

• Help pages
• Field-by-field guide to entering new publications into the database
• Help:Getting Started
• What the ISFDB Wiki is for
• FAQ
• Wiki editing help - Tips on how to use the wiki-specific features when editing wiki pages.
• Wiki Conventions - How things are usually done on this wiki.
• Help:How to upload images to the ISFDB wiki

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.

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! -- JLaTondre (talk) 20:39, 14 June 2020 (EDT)

Hexagon

I approved your addition, but made some changes to match ISFDB standards:

• Per the website, this is only available as a PDF & not individual stories on the website. As such, the format would be an ebook & not a webzine.
• The issue information (number, date) goes into the title
• For magazines without months, we enter the date as year only. I moved the specific date into the pub notes.

We appreciate your submission & hope you will continue to contribute. ISFDB has some conventions that need learning so please check out the help links in the welcome message above. And let us know if you have any questions (ISFDB:Help desk is a good resource for asking). -- JLaTondre (talk) 20:39, 14 June 2020 (EDT)

Hexagon, Spring 2021

I had to reject this submission. You changed the editor record to be an essay within the magazine. The editor record is a specific record for a magazine and represents the magazine as a whole. Any content the editor has in the magazine is entered as a separate record like was already present in the entry. I copied over your additions into the existing record so nothing was lost. Thanks. -- JLaTondre (talk) 17:16, 18 April 2021 (EDT)
