Mark,
I'm happy to work on the data submissions this weekend.
Mark, I've submitted the corrections for the B&V Friends Forever titles (Archie and Friends was already done). I did note that B&V Friends Forever: Halloween Spooktacular was not yet deleted as a title

We're sticking with 'Dark Crisis' - we can mention in the notes field, the title changed with issue #4
@Mark J. Castaneda, this could actually be a good candidate for one of the new CB2023 features...

Preferably, we'd like to have them listed under 1 title. We'll need to back track and revisit these 2 titles get all the issue listed underneath and remove the stand alone titles. If anyone would like to assist with this by sending in Corrected Data submissions that would be appreciated.
Mark,
I'm happy to work on the data submissions this weekend.

Looking at on-line copies, Adam is correct. 1-3 just has Dark Crisis (cover and indicia) while #4 has Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths (on cover and indicia).
However, second printings of 1-3 have Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths.
So, it is publishers 'playing games' (again...).
You had me at "Adam is correct"! 😆
-
I don't have them easily accessible, but I believe there was a title change with issue 4 and that issues 1-3 were indeed Dark Crisis.

If it helps, most, If not all, of the 'one-shots' are double-numbered in the indicia. (i.e. 1 (#5), 1, (#6), etc.)
It does, actually. I think it lends credence to getting rid of the "one-shots" and keeping them under the one title.

I believe this issue (https://atomicavenue.com/atomic/item/965474/1/The-New-Science-Fair-Story-of-ElectronicsmdashThe-Discovery-that-Changed-the-World-1983) to be the same as Story of Electronics—The Discovery that Changed the World! #1983 (https://atomicavenue.com/atomic/item/319866/1/Story-of-ElectronicsmdashThe-Discovery-that-Changed-the-World-1983). I think this one should be removed in favor of the Story of Electronics one.

I don't believe this issue (https://atomicavenue.com/atomic/item/991108/1/Red-Hood-53 ) actually exists. It's not listed in the Grand Comics Database (https://www.comics.org/series/166928/). I think this should be removed from the database.

There is overlap between B&V Friends Forver (https://atomicavenue.com/atomic/TitleDetail.aspx?TitleID=59556&M=1) and various Betty and Veronica: Friends Forever one-shots (for example, https://atomicavenue.com/atomic/TitleDetail.aspx?TitleID=72926&M=1).
I'm not sure what the solution is. The various indicias state issue 1 of different titles, but the UPC numbers would seem to indicate they're supposed to be part of a series. Mark Castaneda, any thoughts (and why can't I tag you)?

I would like to propose a capitalization change for DC Vs. Vampires and related titles. I suggest that "Vs." should be "vs." to follow standard capitalization rules.

Yes, That info should go into the Item Description field.
Perfect! Thanks, Mark!
-
@Steven L. Dasinger, yes; that was my understanding as well. My question was also to fit into the HC model, so I figured it's better to ask what the intent was instead of guessing.

Hi. i saw DC vs. Vampires - Killers 1/A (https://atomicavenue.com/atomic/item/1130065/1/DC-Vs-VampiresmdashKillers-1-Variation-A) has a cover that's an homage to Batman 423 (https://atomicavenue.com/atomic/item/237565/1/Batman-423). Should that go into the Item Description or the Notes? I'm thinking Item Description, but wanted confirmation first.
Thanks in advance,
Adam

@Fred Slota, I never received an answer on why the file was download from the forum servers as 0 bytes. Would you like me to try to get you the files directly? Do you have a Dropbox or Google Drive I should upload the file to?

And there was a genie cartoon with kids with a pair of rings that fit half-to-half, I think?
Ooooh, Underdog! Forgot about him.
@Fred Slota, the genie cartoon was Shazzan, with Kaboobie the flying camel!

Fair point. I'd asked Mark before and recall he'd said it was OK, but it's just as easy to post here or on Slack

This title is wrong. I've corrected the spelling of League, added a space after the colon, and submitted the correction. I wanted to post here, just in case they don't go through properly.

The .zip file is empty.
@Fred Slota, my apologies. I don't know what happened there. I tried downloading and saw that it was 0 bytes as well. However, on the link page itself, it says the page is the file size is 49 kB, which matches what I have locally. @Steven L. Dasinger, do you know if there's someone I can contact to troubleshoot this? For example, can someone check the zip file on the server?

The various printings look to be all over the floor in terms of Notes and/or Item Descriptions. I'm current on updates and just ran rebuild lists, so should be all up-to-date. There's nothing in the item description fields, and some of the notes fields say it collects issues 1-6, others say it collect 1-2, and the first printing (Bk 1) actually says both! Looks like the Collector's Set printings also suffer from this (and maybe even the Deluxe Set issues). Just to add insult to injury, the Bk 1 third printing has the same UPC as the first (I own that one, but don't have access to it for now to check).
I'm afraid this needs a good spring cleaning, but I'm afraid I don't have access to the various issues to straighten it out. Can someone here (or on the Editorial Team) straighten it out, please and thank you?

Honestly, I find the information in Item Description useful when I'm working on cover artist corrections to match up variant with the artist it goes with. Sometimes the cover artist information is not correct (against what's printed in the credits in the actual issue) but the info is in the Item Description
-
Terrific! I'm glad to see someone using it!

Well, THAT only took almost a year instead of "a week or so". Unfortunately, there were some changes to the exported reports used as input data that requered some redesign, and it took waaaaaaaay longer than expected. Shows what shrinking free time will get you...
@Fred Slota, I've uploaded the fixed version here:
Thanks for your patience, and I hope it fits your needs.

These are the same issue. One of them should be removed, although I have no real clue as to which one should be removed (probably Annual 2020).

This title doesn't really exist. Instead, it's really part of B&V Friends Forever. Compare https://atomicavenue.com/atomic/item/1016642/1/BampV-Friends-Forever-Summer-14 with https://atomicavenue.com/atomic/item/1048852/1/BampV-Friends-Forever-14 . I propose that B&V Friends Forever: Summer be removed.

A related trick I use is to CTRL-C/CTRL-V the UPC number into the Find box, since that will take you directly to the issue itself.
