LibriVox Forum

Congratulations! Cataloging is complete: https://librivox.org/the-life-of-rev-henry-martyn-by-john-hall/ The catalog page can show only 1 DPL name, so if you'd rather have that be Linny than Erick, let me know and I can change it. In a way it's a shame the database can't handle more than 1 DPL name;...

I think you can advertise for a new PL'er whenever you're comfortable with it. Let me know if you'd like me to post the ad in Listeners Wanted for you.

Entered! I added Christianity too. Has Erick read your PM yet (has it moved from your Outbox to your Sent box)?

Thanks! I've got the new summary in the database. There are no keywords yet, so if you have any suggestions I'll enter them. (If you don't have any, I'll come up with some before cataloging, but obviously I don't know the book like you do.)

Sounds fine -- I agree it's a good idea to give him a little while to see the PM (in case he's out of town or something). Let me know if/when you need anything.

The first edition (the one published before 1923) would be fine to use.

Librivox volunteers decide for themselves which books to record (or to manage as group projects) -- there's no central deciding body that specifies what will be recorded. Librivox is a platform for people to make audio recordings of anything they like as long as it fits our text policy and basic rec...

I've changed it in our catalog and on the Archive page. (I understand completely!)

The main reason to post is to alert the DPL, so it's fine with me if you don't post in the thread while Pattymarie is traveling. Let me know if you need anything!

Hope you have a good time and safe travels!

Mark Twain wrote a 208-word sentence to complain about long sentences :lol: in "The Awful German Language" (part of A Tramp Abroad ). An average sentence, in a German newspaper, is a sublime and impressive curiosity; it occupies a quarter of a column; it contains all the ten parts of speech -- not i...

Oh good, I'm glad that's all it was!

We have had a few volunteers use a pseudonym for *cough* certain books *cough* that they didn't need employers (or grandparents) to know they had read, but luckily nearly all of our old PD books are safe for work.

You could edit your old posts, but bear in mind that project-specific forum posts help our workflow because they're a record of sections submitted, PL comments addressed, etc. If you've posted personal information you'd rather not have floating out in the wide world, editing that part out wouldn't a...

I don't like the idea of adding another sound to a recording AT ALL. I listened to one of the watermarked files and really couldn't stand hearing words on top of words. It sounded like a mistake and was very off-putting.

Hi and welcome! I've added you to the database as the dedicated prooflistener, so you'll be able to access the Section Compiler after you've created a login. I'll send you a couple of documents by private message that explain the process further, in case anything on the Wiki page that Hannah linked ...
