This is the first I've heard of this standard.
Availle wrote: June 5th, 2023, 7:09 am This is to avoid confusion for listeners; for example "end of chapter 5" and then starting with "section 15" in two consecutive sections is utterly confusing.
If I understand you correctly, you want each section book-ended with...

"section # .......... chapter # (part #)"

[Amazing narration]

"end of chapter # (part #), end of section #"

Availle wrote: June 5th, 2023, 7:09 am If you have done this in the "London" project as well, please do change the outros for the respective sections as well - a simple copy/paste will do. Mark these section as "Ready for PL" in the MW and I'll check them before cataloging.
Dammit!

PL OK, but I do think you might want to include the footnote at 14:43 (Which may be paraphrased: "I have but one diocese, and must I have but one cathedral?"), as it seems "necessary for clarification" to me.

You mean not everyone has a Latin to English dictionary handy? :D Anyway, good catch. I'll get that updated later today.

Here is section 1 with corrected outro: https://librivox.org/uploads/availle/storyofcoventry_01_harris_128kb.mp3 - 17:23

Availle, Please confirm that this is how you want the outro for both this and 'London.'

Yes, that sounds good.

However, I'm not sure what you're going to put into the "section 0"?
This one is usually meant for preface and introduction, so I guess you don't need it after all?

Yeah, sorry. I don't need it. I tried to remove it myself (after adding an additional section) but I couldn't see how to do it.

I will go ahead and correct all the 'London' outros over the next couple of weeks.

Only MCs can delete sections, I'll do that for you.

Thanks for fixing London too. :thumbs:

Is this the preferred method? Or does it not really matter either way?

People often do it this way, especially in novels when there's a translator's introduction for example.
This is why there is the question "is there a preface or introduction" in the template generator.

If you have one chapter per section, then the section and chapter numbers line up nicely.
Then it's possible to call the very first section "preface and introduction" instead of "section 0" in the recording.

In your case, where some chapters run over several sections in the MW, it's fine to start with section 1.
