Well, an admin will probably provide a more authoritative answer, but in the meantime, you'll have to make do with mine. 😅
1. Submit yourself as a Person. Under the convention used on this site, you'll be listed as Nate Parker (II) – here's an example of a similar situation: John Bell (II).
2. Submit a correction for Pub Crawl Through the Sprawl, removing Nate Parker and adding the newly created Nate Parker (II). You should be able to do this right after submitting Nate Parker (II), without waiting for the submission to be approved.
3. Submit a correction for Nate Parker, adding (I) at the end of the name.
4. You can also submit alternate names for your entry (Nathan? Nathaniel?) if you want, but I believe you can only do this by submitting a correction after your original Nate Parker (II) submission has been approved.
Hope I got everything right!

Well, something I never thought would happen to me has happened. An RPG supplement I helped author with a couple of friends, Pub Crawl Through the Sprawl, has been made an entry on this very site. Someone was nice enough to create this RPG item entry along with the entries for the authors, and I appreciate whoever did that because I know that stuff takes effort. However, the Nate Parker that is tied to the item is a different person from me, but we both go by Nate Parker. Do I create a page for myself and, if so, what Name do I use to identify myself with? Also, I'd need to get the author credit for Pub Crawl assigned to me while leaving them with their KoTD article credits. I am not sure how to resolve this, and rather submit stuff to the database and muck it up, I figured I would ask first. Thanks in advance!

As far as I can see, it was working through September 6th but not since.

By way of example, this is all the Internet Archive can manage: a completely blank page titled "Just a moment..."As far as I can see, it was working through September 6th but not since.
