At the condition that it will be easy and I will master it in no time of course

Ah for the catalogue can you register me with the name Imagine, please?
And I most likely will re- record the section any feedback welcomed on the current one though.

And I had a question, in case tags contained mistakes, do we have to re-upload them with the correct info or there is an easier way?

Sorry I couldn't listen to your file yet, just a stretch of busy time at work.

The tags: they can be fixed by the MC at the time of cataloging, but, before that, only by downloading, manually fixing and reuploading. In general, when there are other things to fix, we ask the reader to fix it as well (since the process of reuploading will have to happen anyway), but if it's just the tag, I normally leave a note for myself, to remind me to fix it when cataloging.

Hi Leni,
Here is my test link.

http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/le/ONE-MINUTE%20TES-ALICEINWONDER.mp3

I would be really happy to hear from you soon with a feedback, so I can go on and post a short story - either in English or in Portuguese. A question: if I want to identify myself as the reader at the end of the recording, must I use my forum name or can I use my real name?

Thanks in advance
Alice

Hi, Alice

I see you have posted your test here and in other places as well. The correct place to put your test, as explained in the 1-minute-test wiki page, is in a new thread in the Listener and Editors Wanted forum, not in the many project threads. That's also how you can get feedback faster - even though Algy gave you some feedback already here: http://forum.librivox.org/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=31300

Also, to help with this collection, please read carefully the instructions in the first post. You don't need to reserve sections or anything in this case, just please make sure the text you select is in the public domain both in the US and in Brazil.

And regarding your question: you can use whichever name you want. I'd recommed you use in the recording the same name you choose as your catalog name, be it a pseudonym or your real name. That's just to avoid the confusion of having one name identifying you in the catalog - that is, the name the listeners will see when they download the book - and something else in the recording.

Best,

I was waiting for PeaceBreeze to give me some feedback on this recording, but I haven't heard from her in a long time, so I'm just going to upload it. This is my first contribution entirely in Persian (Farsi).

Title: کلمات مکنونه فارسی - ٣ (Kalimát-i-Maknúnih-i-Fársí - 03)
Artist: Bahá'u'lláh
Language: Farsi
Source: http://www.archive.org/details/Majmuih-i-matbuihcollectedTabletsOfBahaullah
Link to recording: http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/le/msw001_kalimatimaknunihfarsi03_bahaullah_njb.mp3
Length: 1:05.
Size: 1.00 MB

For the benefit of the PL-er, here is the text of the recording (excluding the disclaimer):

ای دوست

در روضه قلب جز گل عشق مکار و از ذيل بلبل حبّ و شوق دست مدار * مصاحبت ابرار را غنيمت دان و از مرافقت اشرار دست و دل هر دو بردار

Hi , Leni
I uploaded a new version of Jid.

http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/le/msw001_jid_turgenev_dk.mp3

At the end I left the minor corrections, that Marilianus called optional, and corrected the beginning ; added the name of the author and the language,
and also the end: corrected the silence to 10 seconds.

Hope it's alright now. Let me know.

Thanks, Dana.

Hello, Anna, and thanks for the recording!

However, we need an online source for the text. Can you provide us with a link to a public domain source of the text, please?
