Hello, {{PAGENAME}}, 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:<br />

'''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.<br />
<br />
Please be careful in editing publications that have been [[Help:How to verify data|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.<br />
<br />
I hope you enjoy editing here! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>); this will insert your name and the date.

==Cover Image Uploading==<br />
Cover image uploading is a two step process. Once you have uploaded a cover to the wiki, you need to click on the image (so you get just the image), copy that URL, and then edit the publication to add the URL to the publication. So for [[:Image:GMFTHRNSPK2002.jpg]], you needed to enter [http://www.isfdb.org/wiki/images/b/bc/GMFTHRNSPK2002.jpg this URL], in the Image URL field of {{P|255915|A Game of Thrones}}. I have taken care of this one. 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). Thanks. --&nbsp;[[User:JLaTondre|JLaTondre]] ([[User talk:JLaTondre#top|talk]]) 09:52, 18 June 2022 (EDT)</div>JLaTondre
