Hello. Unfortunately I've had to reject [http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/view_submission.cgi?4770154 your submission] because only the two first printings are confirmed to be in the same year, and since this is the third printing that you wanted to update, not the second. Note that incidentally it is likely that [http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/pl.cgi?282398 this record's] the second printing so its printing date should likely to be updated to 1985-10-00. Do you happen to have that book, or the one with the printer's key 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 instead? If it's the former, do check in with one of the still active PV's (MartyD) and confirm he's OK with the date update as well (as he has the book too).<br>

Welcome!

Hello, JohnCarter, 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! MagicUnk 14:14, 23 September 2020 (EDT)

Race Against Time

Hello. Unfortunately I've had to reject your submission because only the two first printings are confirmed to be in the same year, and since this is the third printing that you wanted to update, not the second. Note that incidentally it is likely that this record's the second printing so its printing date should likely to be updated to 1985-10-00. Do you happen to have that book, or the one with the printer's key 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 instead? If it's the former, do check in with one of the still active PV's (MartyD) and confirm he's OK with the date update as well (as he has the book too).
