I need your vote if you want to add your find by your own name into the prime database. Another idea was to keep all the primes under an alternative name by mersenne.

I prefer to report primes under my own name rather than have them under an alternate "project" name, however to do that people need to know how to report them.

To report your own primes you first need to create an account at primes.utm.edu with Username and Password. This will generate a Database ID.

Second create a new proof-code that credits the following:

Your surname (#) : You (person)
Srsieve (#905) : Geoffrey Reynolds' srsieve (program)
CRUS (#1372) : Conjectures 'R Us (project)
This proof-code will also automatically credit:
OpenPFGW (#175) : OpenPFGW (a.k.a. PrimeForm) (program)

All unused proof-codes will be deleted after 24 hours, so don't create a proof-code until you need it.

Finally add primes by using the submit primes button that can be found on both your prover-account page and on the page for the new proof-code.

Remember to only report primes your sure of. Primes need to be primality tested before they are reported. Report false primes too often and you'll be blocked.

How will people know they have found a Prime at SRBase?
