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.

Skrekkens timer with Invalid ISBN number.
Hi! I've tried several different fixes but the ISBN[1] submitted has 11 digits instead of 10. If this is how it's displayed in the book then I will note the error & move it to a different part of the form. Thanks!Kraang (talk) 23:21, 19 June 2023 (EDT)
Hi! I'm new to this system, so I not sure if this is the right place to write, or if it is another way to communicate with you. Anyway, the ISBN in book is displayed like this: 82-04-00280-02 I don't know if it is a spell error in the book, but it's just displayed like that with 11 digits. Best Regards Twisty
- Yes this is the best place to respond, as for the ISBN it should have 10 digits, the first 9 help generate the 10th. If I use the first 9 the last number would be "7",so the correct ISBN would be 8204002807. So far all my attempts to use this number have yielded no positive results. Do you know of any data bases where you are that this ISBN might work? I'll make the changes to the pub to reflect the incorrect ISBN. Thanks!Kraang (talk) 21:16, 20 June 2023 (EDT)
