Welcome!
Hello, Ppint.pinto, 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!.--Dirk P Broer 15:37, 22 April 2019 (EDT)
The Rat Race
When data is not in the pub, the source of the data needs to be specified in the notes. This is especially true for pubs that have been primary verified. For your earlier Stowe covers, the artist name was on the cover. For this one, that is not the case so since our only source is the tikit.net website, it needs to be stated in the notes. In addition, since the name is not the pub, we would enter it with the canonical name (which in this case is D. A. Stowe). I've rejected your edit and re-submitted based on the above. You can find the final at The Rat Race. We do appreciate you finding these. ISFDB has some conventions that need learning, but everything should be in the help links in the welcome message above. We hope you will continue to contribute. And please let us know if you have any questions (ISFDB:Help desk is a good resource for asking). -- JLaTondre (talk) 11:58, 15 September 2019 (EDT)
