Welcome!
Hello, Joshkirbyart, 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
- Field-by-field guide to entering new publications into the database
- Help:Getting Started
- What the ISFDB Wiki is for
- 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#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!
Josh Kirby picture
While I agree a real image is better than a drawing, Wikipedia has flat-out denied this site permission to link to ANY images on theirs. They consider it stealing bandwidth. I have no choice but to reject the submission. Photographs can be a problem as the person IN the picture doesn't usually have the rights to it, but the photographer does. Now, if Kirby ever took a 'selfie' .... ;-)) --~ Bill, Bluesman 15:55, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
