Thanks, I figured it only made sense for me to complete the entire topic, so since, section 23 is PL ok , I'll do the rest within that topic. Thanks so much!

Wow, quite a lot has happened here while I was away for the weekend! I think I've updated the MW thoroughly, but let me know if I missed something. Busy day today, so I won't be able to PL for a day or two.

Also, I've just noticed that the file names are incorrect for the files submitted thus far. The numbers in each file name need to be three digits, since we have 100 sections, so they should include leading zeros. (021, for instance, rather than 21) If there are no other corrections, this can be fixed in cataloguing, but it's easier on our BC if she doesn't have to fix it. After I PL, if there are needed corrections, I'll ask you to reupload with the correct numbering.

Section 24:

About 0:31-0:35 delete "Rev John B. L. Williams, D.D." This is the caption of the photograph, and we don't need to include image captions. Besides that, his name is repeated both before and after this. Three in a row sounds pretty excessive. :wink:

Be sure when you re-upload that you number the section 024, not just 24. :)

Excellent readings, Mike! I really enjoyed them!

Your volume is a tad high, though. Please decrease the volume of both of these by about 3 dB and re-upload. When you do, remember to use leading zeros in your section numbering (095 and 096). Thanks! :D

I uploaded Section 2 on November 3rd, but it is still showing in my Reader Details as Assigned. It's been two weeks, and not in the MW yet. Is there a problem with my file?

Nope, I just completely forgot about it! :shock: Terribly sorry about that. :oops: I'm at work until midnight tonight, but I swear I will update and PL it tomorrow. If you don't see a change in 24 hours from now, pester me until you do!

Hello,
Thanks for letting me know about this, when I copy pasted the text to read, it didn't include the caption photograph, so I couldn't quite remember why the name was listed so many times :hmm:

I have made the suggested corrections and also edited the file name to read 024 instead of 24.

Here is the new uploaded file:

File duration is now 9 mins. 32 sec.
