This is a followup to clarify the process for submitting entries
to PhilPapers, for those who are unsure. After creating your own
account and logging in, you may click the link "submit material"
at the top. This takes you to a dialogue where you first enter
your name and the title of the work. After clicking "submit" you
are taken to a further edit dialogue where you can enter the
publication details and an abstract. If you are submitting to
enrich our collection of entries on Indian Ethics, please include
an abstract that explains how your entry addresses the topic. Also
please enter "Indian Ethics" under the bottom "classification"
link. That will ensure that it gets included in searches on Indian
Ethics.
PhilPapers formats the entry according to its style, so no need
to worry about formatting your entry. You can view your entries
under your profile (link at the top).
Best wishes, and thanks
Shyam

Dear all,
I am the Indian
Ethics editor for PhilPapers. PhilPapers is
the online database of publications in philosophy. It is a
crowd-source effort: individual scholars are expected to and
invited to contribute bibliographical information for their own
publications, and once contributed they are reviewed by a
subject editor.
I am writing to ask any and all of you who have written on
Indian Ethics---Indic systems of values or normsand
their Indian reasons /justifications---to
submit bibliographical information about your relevant
publications, if you have not already done so. I will
periodically review the references to ensure that they are
within the purview of the category. As long as the material is
relevant to Indian moral (dharma) theory, they should be
included.
To include your publications, please click the "submit
material" link at the top of the PhilPapers page, and login or
create an account first.
PhilPapers is a great resource. While institutions are expected
to pay and subscribe, it is free to use for the average internet
surfer, from their home or in public. PhilPaper entries show up
on Google searches for your name, and hence it is a useful way
to get your work publicized. If you are unsure about the kind
of material that is relevant, you can drop me a query.
