hello and thanks for your section, which is excellently narrated as well. It was a pleasure to listen to your voice and the text was rendered word-perfect. I think you were recording a bit too loud maybe, because there has been some clipping off, I would suggest setting the microphone to a bit lower input range. But it didn't distort the sound, so all is well this time.
However there is one bit that you need to correct, it only needs a re-recording of the intro disclaimer. The rest of the text is perfect and does not have to be touched. Simply re-record the intro and paste it into the correct slot:
> for the intro disclaimer, could you please use the "full disclaimer" ? (this is mentioned in the Magic Window for your section - the short intro is only for very small sections). So please, say all the following: “Section 12 of The World War.

> at the end we leave a standard of 5 seconds of silence - you have over 7 seconds, could you please cut out two seconds ?
then simply reupload with the exact same filename, then the old file will get replaced with the new
Thank you, great start, hopefully more to come

Thank you for the extensive feedback, Sonia. I truly appreciate the compliments and hope to contribute more in the future
Here's the updated version, as per the instructions you've outlined. Please let me know if everything looks okay now.
The text is actually on pg 187 followed with the photo on pg. 188, and not on the page the mw states, pg 148. Perhaps that will make it go by more quickly for you to edit this file.
what a waste of human life those tables are chilling.
Section 91 is already PL ok.
A few small corrections for Section 88 though:
> at 5:12: (p. 508) "is not more than 45 per 1000 per annum" - you inserted the word "percent" here, which can be cut out
> at 12:00: (p. 512) "on page 511"- this can be cut, since you so expertly narrated the tables :thumb: then we don't need to include page numbers for people to look at
thank you ! Not an easy section to read (88) but still easier than last book

oh yes it depends what page number you are looking at. The actual page in the book is 148, this is what I used. For some reason the archive scroll-over is using far bigger page numbers for the pictures, I have no idea why
Only one small omission in the title to be added:
> at 0:11: could you please insert "photograph page 148" here after the title ? Just read the title exactly as I put it in the MW (I did that to make it easy for the readers).
A few years ago I walked along Nevsky Prospect, a beautiful boulevard. I can only imagine what it must have looked like back in the days of the shooting of civilians
If you have time to PL, Jim, I'd be happy, but there is no hurry, of course
