Welcome!

Hello, Gisbystreet, 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:

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! Stonecreek 02:38, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

The Blue World

Hello, I've rejected your submission as the credit to Di Fate seems dubious. There is probably a confusion with the latter (1977) cover for the same novel that is attested. The other bibliographies of Vance do not support this credit nor does Weinberg's dictionnary of artists. Note that a 1966 publication date would be very early in Di Fate 's career (this will predate his first known sf work by more that three years). Hauck 04:02, 20 March 2018 (EDT)

You're the boss! Yes thought it was unlike his style but there was the attribution in what I thought was the "definitive" Vance bibliography. Perhaps a cut and paste mistake? I'll put a stickie on the page quoting your doubts! Gisbystreet 21:37, 23 March 2018 (EDT)

A Scent of New-Mown Hay

Hello,

I approved the edit for your verified A Scent of New-Mown Hay but did a few changes after that:

  • Moved the OCLC number in the new External fields. I suspect that the OCLC number was already there when you verified the work so when you see one of those, can you please remove it from the notes and instead use the External ID fields under the Notes Field. We are in the progress of slowly migrating all the old notes into the new fields and any help is appreciated.
  • We do not need a "br" tag at the start of each line anymore. I cleaned all but the first one (the first one is needed if you do not want the first comment line to be on the same line as the label of the field).

Thanks Annie - will watch for that. Gisbystreet 21:32, 23 March 2018 (EDT)
