Welcome!
Hello,, 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. 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 (~&#126;); 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!

Thanks for adding records for this title. I've made the following corrections in the records to conform to ISFDB standards. (You'll find a link to the help pages in the Welcome section above.)


 * 1) Prices are given in dollars and cents.
 * 2) The NONFICTION type is reserved for book-length work. I changed the short pieces to the ESSAY type.
 * 3) All dates should be entered in this format: YYYY-MM-DD. An undated 1979 publication and content records should be entered as "1979-00-00"
 * 4) Reviews of non-book titles are entered as essays. I removed the film reviews and made them into essays.
 * 5) Illustrations that are for a particular story should be given the same name as the story which they illustrate. Can you go back to each of the records and make corrections if the interior art record illustrates a story? For now, I've disambiguated each of the interior art records with the issue in which they appear.

I was also able to find an image for the first issue. If you have copies of these issues (and I'm assuming you do), please do a primary verification of the records (see the link in the Welcome section.) Thanks for contributing. Mhhutchins 17:45, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

The Federation Holmes
Thanks for submitting The Federation Holmes! I have approved the submission and made the following changes:


 * Changed the publication format from "Hardcover" to "hc"
 * Changed the price from $20 to $20.00
 * Changed "The Captive Brids" to "The Captive Bride" as per this Web page

Could you please check if there is an "Introduction" at the beginning of the book as claimed by the page linked above? Also, is the last numbered page 172 or 173? Thanks! Ahasuerus 02:08, 5 March 2012 (UTC)
