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.

Die Welt in hundert Jahren

Hello, I've put your submission on hold. Before fixing some details, can you confirm that this book is indeed speculative fiction and not a collection of essays in futurology? Thanks. Hauck 02:12, 18 July 2017 (EDT)

Hello, without details forthcoming, I've rejected your submission. Please take some time to study our ROA and eventually submit again. Thanks for contributing. Hauck 02:37, 21 July 2017 (EDT)

Hello Hauck, unfortunately I could not answer your questions in due time. I have re-submitted my entry now.
Regarding your question from above: Actually this book is both. There are SF short stories with a setting in a possible future in 100 years. But there are also prosaic essays, futorology if you want. Some of the chapters start as an essay but then turn into a fiction story. I think that this book (which became quite popular in Germany in 2010, after the 100 years had passed) can be categorized as "utopian literature" in general. VoxUndVoxi 09:27, 8 October 2017 (EDT)

Hello, I have accepted your new submission, many thanks for it. Alas, I had to change the title note and synopsis, as we are an English language database. But many thanks for contributing. Stonecreek 12:08, 8 October 2017 (EDT)

Hi, I've looked at the sources and I would like to propose some changes. Firstly, I can't find a ringel-s (ß), neither in the TOC nor on the title pages of the original. It is Robert Sloss and Prof. Garrett P. Serviss. Perhaps unsurprising, as they are both Americans. Secondly, Björne Björnsen shows up in the original as Björn Björnsen (He might actually be Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson, Nobel prize winner in 1903).--Dirk P Broer 18:21, 9 October 2017 (EDT)

I accepted Dirk's proposed corrections. --MartyD 21:29, 9 October 2017 (EDT)
