How do I modify a publication?

Based on text by John Reekie from the GSRC website.
If you are logged in to
the site, use the
publications search page
to find the publication you wish to edit.
If you have permissions to modify the publication,
you will see several links on the left-hand margin:
- Edit publication allows you to change the
fields associated with the publication -- the author, title,
journal, and so on.
- Change type allows you to change the
publication type. You can also use this page to
restrict access to members of this website or associate the
publication with a group.
- Upload files allows you to upload
additional electronic version of this publication. If you upload a
file with the same file name as the current file, then the current
file will be replaced. If the upload has a file name that is
different from the current file(s), then the new upload will be
added to the set of available files.
(For more detailed instructions, see the question
on
adding publications
-- the screens are essentially the same.)
You will be able to modify a publication record
and upload files if either
- You are the person who originally created
the publication record, or
- The publication is associated with a
chess
work-group
or SIG, and you are a member of that work-group or SIG.
If neither of these is the case, go to the bottom
of the page for the publication, where you will
see something like "Posted by Fred Nerfs on September
6th, 2005." Then send email to Fred Nerfs.
