I took over the role of Barney last year when the BC opened it up again. So my files were used instead. Sorry for the confusion!ej400 wrote:I read as Barney in this project, my my name does not appear in the catolog. Can you please fix that?

Thank you.
I don't understand why mine were replaced here, when on page 49 they were saying that it was a funny voice for a funny character. Nothing against you Thomas, I just don't understand why they opened up my role when it was already PL OK.AdeledePignerolles wrote:Barney is all PL OK!
I went back and listened to chapter 15 and 22 and they were my voice, while 42 and 45 appear to be your voice.
It does not matter now, but I did not abandon this project, it was all PL OK on page 29
Thank you so much for looking into this.

I'm not sure why the role was opened up. It was last December, and that's when I claimed it. I didn't realize both our files were utilized in the editing process---that might have been unintentional. I'm rather surprised no one noticed, because at the very least there could have been a joint-credit.
Sorry for the mix-up, Elijah. This seems to have been a harmless oversight.

It totally happens with so many characters and especially with Charles Dickens works. I would end up doing the same thing.
It looks like there was a problem with the final few Barney files, and so Tomas agreed to quickly redo the last few files. In the end both voices appear in the final files.
I think this happened before I came on as DPL, so I didn't realize, but going back through the thread there is some discussion about it being too difficult to replace all the already edited files, so both voices were used.
Under the circumstances I think we can probably add Elijah to the "other minor characters" section, as Barney isn't separately credited on the catalogue page anyway.
(Sorry about that - it's always tricky when other people take over a project from the original BC. I'm only surprised there was just one omission! )

It is a big problem with long running projects, readers and BCs drop out. I think there were missing lines and Elijah was not around . I accept responsibility for any orphaning that took place, there comes a time when to be fair to other readers things need to be catalogued so if readers wish to be involved particularly in DRs they need to check back to be sure that there are no missing lines etc.

Yes, that's what happened! We were using your files, Elijah, but there were a couple lines missing and a few lines we had editing problems with (plosives, I think) but we couldn't get a hold of you. At that point the project was really close to finishing so Rachel looked for someone to play those lines and Tomas did them, but then Rachel disappeared a bit and the project slowed down for a while (if we had known it was going to take that long to finish we would have waited for your files, but we thought it was going to be done within the month). We did end up using files from both of you and they sound fabulous together! Unless you're listening really close you can't tell it's two different people.

I'm not sure who to report this to, but the torrent for this seems to be down. For http://ia601501.us.archive.org/13/items/ the status is listed as "File not found on http server". It also contains a large subfolder called "____padding_file" which I don't think belongs there.
Truth,
James

I think you'd need to check that it is still happening 24 hours later - there are sometimes server faults and if it still is report it in the Archive LV forum https://archive.org/details/librivoxaudio&tab=forum . We've never had anything to do with Archive making the torrents , they just decided to one day
and I've no way of checking whether it was a temporary glitch or some major Archive problem.
