Welcome!

Hello, JJ, 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:

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) 00:19, 27 November 2016 (UTC)

Joe M. McDermott

Thank you for finding this. However, when establishing a pseudonym relationship, the ISFDB uses the most widely credited name as the canonical name. In this case, that would be J. M. McDermott. I've had to reject your edit and instead created the pseudonym relationship going the other one. We do appreciate your submission. ISFDB has some conventions that need learning, but everything should be in the help links in the welcome message above. We hope you will continue to contribute. And please let us know if you have any questions (ISFDB:Help desk is a good resource for asking). -- JLaTondre (talk) 00:19, 27 November 2016 (UTC)

No worries, just wanted to give you all a heads-up. Thanks for all your hard work. I refer to ISFDB several times a week. :-) JJ 02:40, 27 November 2016 (UTC)

Series Editor

Hello, to the best of my knowledge, we do not credit Series Editors like here. Note that you(?) are amply cited in the notes. I've put your submissions on hold if you want to present your case on The Moderaor Noticeboard. Hauck 05:42, 8 April 2017 (UTC)

It's my understanding that they are co-editors.

How does this differ from these examples?
