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.

Mîncătorii de ziduri serializations

For [1], [2], and [3], what is the source for the 1991 date? If these serializations were previously published, the best thing would be to add the pubs they appeared in. But at a minimum, we should have a "First appeared in" statement in the title notes. Thanks. -- JLaTondre (talk) 08:19, 21 March 2021 (EDT)

As there has been no response, I have had to reject the edits. If you stop back and provide the source, I will make the necessary edits. Thanks. -- JLaTondre (talk) 19:54, 30 March 2021 (EDT)

Hello. Sorry for the delayed response. I know for sure that those three editions of IRIS SF appeared in 1991 because I own them and I bought them in that year (it was my second year of high school). Unfortunately, the year isn't printed anywhere on them (I checked every page). I searched on the Internet and I didn't found much. But I found this: the printing was done at a state printing company witch had the name changed later that year by an official government decision (I'll provide the link later this day - I have it at my home and I'm at work now and I forgot that name :)). -- Eraser25 05:46, 1 April 2021 (EDT)

As I mentioned earlier, I can provide some evidence for 1991 date. Here is a link of a photo made by me with all three Iris SF Magazine that contain Serge Bussolo's novel, with the name of the printing company: [4]. The name is "I.P. 13 Decembrie 1918" - I.P. stands for "Intreprinderea Poligrafica" (Printing Company). And here is a link with Romanian Government Decision 171/1991 from march 1991: [5]. It's in Romanian, but you can use Google Translate to undestand. In the table, at row B, it's mentioned that the name of "I.P. 13 Decembrie 1918" was changed in "Romcart SA" starting march 1991. So, the year 1991 was the last one to hear about "I.P. 13 Decembrie 1918" and after that, the name of the printing company was "Romcart SA". This is all I have found to sustain my claim. I hope is enough. -- Eraser25 03:04, 2 April 2021 (EDT)
