Weasels Ripped My Flesh!
I had to reject your submission to add a record for this anthology. It appears that most of the stories it contains are not speculative fiction. Our policy prohibits the inclusion of any work which is clearly not sf. Exceptions are made for book-length non-genre works by authors who are, for the most part, considered sf authors. If you know that there are individual pieces in this collection which are sf, please make another submission which only includes those works in the content section. There were a few other problems with the submission as well. The editor(s) of anthologies are considered the author of the work and are the credited in the author field of the record, not the authors of the contents. The price field requires that the currency be noted (in this case, it lacked the $). Also, the synopsis should be impartial and objective. If you use the publisher's blurb, it should be sourced. But preferably an original synopsis is preferred.

Before making any future submissions which may be borderline or whose inclusion might be questionable, it would be best to post a message of inquiry at the Help Desk. Thanks. Mhhutchins 14:43, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
