Sorry, Rawhide didn't come up as a search for me an hour ago.
I haven't received any notification yet that I'm aware of that I'm a Trusted Contributor. So it's possible I can.
I suppose the question is, where do I go to add a new show? I see that a Tool icon has appeared under my user ID. The best I can find is an Import from Epguides function.

As far as I know, Jan sent you an email. I'll ask him to double check.

If you go to the Shows tab and scroll to the bottom of the page, a Create link should now be there (http://www.tvmaze.com/show/create).

Hi Gadfly,

I've sent you 2 mails in the last few days to the email you registered your account with.

Maybe you should mail us, I'll send you some info to start with.

cheers,

Jan

You could use an import tool of TVDB in your tool selection, search for a specific show, if none shown, it will appear as create new show or simply check down below in the show page :) and I added Rawhide btw as you requested haha :), it wasnt that you didnt check it.

Ah, I've received the mails. It's not the first place that I check, though.

It's the only personal contact we have from you. :)
If you use a different e-mail just let us know and we'll contact you there when necessary.

Nah. It's just that I'm not sure if it's on your feature list, but you might want to consider an internal messaging system at some point down the road.

I suppose the other question is, can you import in episodes from TVDB? It appears you have a tool to do so, but I'm not clear if Trusted Contributors do.

Thanks!

There should be in your tool section in the most right column (Contributions) and topic with import from TVDB. I believe trusted contributed do have access to them. This is only to find the shows. Import of episodes is done by us.

We indeed have a tool that helps us import episodes in bulk, but it's highly beta and has a steep learning curve; so it's only available to Head Contributors for now. If there's something you would like to see imported, feel free to request that over here as well.

I'd ask for the importation of episodes into The Wil Wheaton Project.

And the second season of Land of the Giants.

I imagine I'll be asking for the importation of episodes into any other shows I create in the days and weeks to come. So there'll probably be quite a few...

Creating the show itself is such a small part of adding the entire show to the database, that we might as well just ask you to add the shows. Since it looks like you automatically add the episodes when that happens. Adding the shows themselves takes about as long as posting requests to add them here.
