Hello. I have [http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/view_submission.cgi?4729741 your submission] on hold, as I couldn't figure out whether these stories contain speculative fiction elements or not. If not, this anthology does not belong in the ISFDB. Could you therefore confirm that (the majority of) these Gothic stories are not merely 'regular' horror, but do contain spec fic elements ? (ghosts, levitation, supernatural beings,...). Thanks! [[User:MagicUnk|MagicUnk]] 06:29, 24 August 2020 (EDT)

Welcome!

Hello, Vampiregrave, 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 06:14, 24 August 2020 (EDT)

A Dança dos Ossos

Hello. I have your submission on hold, as I couldn't figure out whether these stories contain speculative fiction elements or not. If not, this anthology does not belong in the ISFDB. Could you therefore confirm that (the majority of) these Gothic stories are not merely 'regular' horror, but do contain spec fic elements ? (ghosts, levitation, supernatural beings,...). Thanks! MagicUnk 06:29, 24 August 2020 (EDT)
