Welcome!

Hello, Michaelc, 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! Mhhutchins 16:53, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Linking images to the publication record

Now that you've uploaded the cover image you must update the pub record, by adding the URL of the image in the "Image URL" field. Just copy the URL of the image, go to the pub record, click on "Edit This Pub" under the editing tools, paste the URL in the proper field, and then click "Submit Data". Thanks for contributing.

Dark Sky Legion

The URL you entered into the record is for the image's Wiki page. You should link to the image itself here. Please resubmit the update. Thanks. Mhhutchins 20:32, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

The second submission had the same problem. Click on the image link here, copy the URL in your browser's address window, then paste it into the Image URL field of the publication record. Mhhutchins 22:05, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
Success! --~ Bill, Bluesman 00:52, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

Michael Capobianco

I had to reject your addition of an image link to Michael Capobianco. Unfortunately, we can only use images from sites that have explicitly given us permission to do so (see ISFDB:Image linking permissions). Based on your username, if you own the photo, you can uploaded it to our server (Image:Michael Capobianco.jpg would be an applicable location) & then link the author record to the image on our server. Please let me know if you have questions. Thanks. -- JLaTondre (talk) 01:37, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

By uploading this image file to the ISFDB server, do you agree to release it to the public domain or wish to retain any copyright of ownership applicable to the image? All image files hosted on the ISFDB server must have a license attached to it, and I need to know which one applies in this case. Please respond here. Thanks. Mhhutchins 20:06, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

Storms of Destiny (map)

Hello, I've noticed that you submitted twice the same addition for pieces of INTERIORART in this publication. Is there one or two maps? Hauck 18:53, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

Sorry. It's only one map. I've deleted the second one.
In fact, no you didn't (your submission was void). I've done this for you. Hauck 19:16, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

Thanks!
