Revision as of 01:52, 24 July 2011
Welcome!
Hello, Steph-osborn, 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
- Help:Getting Started
- What the ISFDB Wiki is for
- ISFDB 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!
Editing a verified record
I'm holding a submission which wishes to change the author credit from "Darrell Osborne" to "Darrel Osborn" in this record. Do you have a copy of the actual book, and can you confirm that the artist is credited exactly as you wish to change the record? Also, ISFDB policy asks that any changes to a verified record be communicated with the primary verifier. Editors may have individual levels of notification posted on their talk pages. Thanks for contributing and welcome to the ISFDB. Mhhutchins 05:47, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
Extraction Point!
A publication series, as entered on a publication record, is not the same as a title series, as recorded on a title record. For the differences see this help page. You'll have to remove the series which is entered in this record, and move it to this record. Let me know here on your talk page if you need assistance on how to do this. Just click the [edit] link for this message, add your response (starting with a colon to indent it), sign it with four tildes (~~~~) and save the page. Thanks. Mhhutchins 05:52, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
