Archangel by Conner
The Tor paperback identifies the author as "Mike Conner" on the cover, but the Tor hardcover first edition credits "Michael Conner" on the cover. I don't have either edition, but keep in mind that we use the authorship credited on the publication's title page, which occasionally differs from the dustjacket, spine or book binding's credit. Perhaps Scott will be able to tell you about his verified hardcover edition, but lately, he only pops in infrequently. Thanks. MHHutchins 21:58, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
- I understand, I wanted to be sure. By the way, in such cases should I trust or ask the verifier? Calin Hila 20:09, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
- If in doubt it is never a bad idea to ask the verifier. If you are making a significant change to a verified publication, it is good practice, in general, to at least notify the veriefier on his or her talk page. Also, look at the verification date -- we have gooten stricter about what 'verified' means than we were when verification was first introduced, so a more recent one ought to be more reliable on matters of detail than an older one. -DES Talk 21:00, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
