I did a little editing to file 04 and marked it as ready for PL so we can get some new review on it.

0:06-0:09 of the intro is hard to make out. Could be more annunciated.
0:16: very little pause/transition time title to first line.
0:19: sounds like “flagged” instead of “flag to”
0:56: “time and nature” – the “and” is not annunciated.
From the old PL notes, I added more pause from title to first line and the MW shows that the recording needed 5 seconds at the end. I also did some noise cleaning and turned the volume up slightly. I think this helps with the intro being hard to make out, I can hear it.

I'll get these assigned. I'm not too concerned with any footnotes, but if you feel it adds value then have at it.
