I think you are over-thinking things here 8-) There is a lot of latitude for readers’ individual style. I’m including my comments here in bold, although in general, I don’t like the use of bold or color :D

Sec 29 PL notes:
An unnecessary underscore at the beginning of the file`s name. As long as a file can be PLd, I will correct all file names at cataloguing. The extra underscore doesn’t affect anything.
Start of recording is a little “swallowed”. However, I suppose, this hasn`t to be corrected here, but to bear in mind for the future recordings. Is the beginning silence less than .5 seconds? Many players cut off the beginning, which is why we need that lead silence
00:07 – I hear “Joan and Peter, by H. G. Wells”, instead of simply “Joan and Peter” This isn’t a big deal
00:30 – considerable volume`s decrease This is something the reader has been working on. Her previous files have had great variation. I recommend either the compressor or leveler effect, but even these have their limitations.
00:31 – I hear “Joan and Peter, by H. G. Wells. Section 7”, but I believe that “Section Title, part number” should be read as:
The World on the Eve of the War Part 7; am I right?. This is section 29, The World on the Eve of War Part 7
02:19 - considerable volume`s decrease, sort of sound gap
11:37 – end of section 29, section 7 – I believe it must be called “part 7”, just as at the beginning of the recording. Moreover, the project`s disclaimer asks only for:
"End of section #."
And no Section Title, part number.
This should be end of section 29. You are correct that we don’t need the section title (including part number)
There`s about 8 sec of silence at the end and there are only ~5 sec needed.
This isn’t a huge deal, but if other changes need to be made, cutting this to 5 seconds is a good idea - we used to have 10 seconds for files over 30 minutes long 8-)

Moreover, having looked at the clever division into parts of the previous chapter (Adolescence), I can`t figure out well this chapter`s division in sections. As far as I see, in the MW there is only 1 section remained – section 30 (The World on the Eve of the War Part 8). But in the book, this chapter has parts 8, 9, 10 and 11.
If all of them will be read as the MW`s section 30 (The World on the Eve of the War Part 8), it will be really much larger than this section… Is it all right? :hmm:
Thanx! Don’t worry about the divisions. They are decided by the BC (in this case, me) at the start of the project
Cheers & blessings 🌞

Great, thanx! 💜
However, still remain some details to be corrected here. I`ll be waiting for a file for a spot PL.

There is about 1.7 sec of silence at the start, but after that the volume increases gradually, so the first words are almost inaudible.
