If I sound pushy, mate, it's because I am
There's no rush, anyway, and if you need any help with anything I've mentioned, give me a shout
Did I mention it's looking good?

It's a nice entry, Cal
I'm trying to remember what else I remember from my Spanish classes, I know we learned something about students/young people making music in the roads, whether for a special purpose, or as a comüpetition, I don't recall. I don't remember if it's done throughout Spain, or only in certain regions, I know it had a special name, just skimming my book in the hope of finding the info

Cal, do you think you should mention that Spanish isn't the only language spoken ( and written on road signs, for example), but that there is Catalan ? I've seen that google even offers: galego and euskara ( http://www.google.es/ )- whatever they are

I'm not sure where in the entry to put it since the entry is about customs and not the spoken word

Yep, I'm afraid it doesn't really fit in this entry. However, I reckon the entry on Spain could do with a little improvement one day...

True, but you suggest that people should go there by means of jumbos, trains or cars. so i think the first paragraph could just mention it. Are you aware that your entry overlaps on huge parts with the entry about Spain you link to ? I've only just read that, to find out whether they mention the languages. ( They don't)

Yes, but shouldn't you have put this in the update forum, rather than in PR ?

No because it's about customs and not the country
had I being doing an entry on spain itself then yes I would have seen about updating the one that is currently in the EG, as that entry barely touches on the stuff I have here (the biggest simalarity is the bull fighting section) then I feel this entry is in the right place

I'd argue no. I reckon this is a separate entry - after all it has twice the number of words as the entire entry on Spain, and the Spain entry needs rewriting with more general things such as the cities, beaches, history etc without covering customsin this sort of detail.

I think this should remain about the customs, however much it overlaps. An update to the Spain Entry would have to include lots of geographical and historical information, and I'm sure Cal isn't into that idea. Let's stick to the customs, I reckon - the update is another Entry entirely

Sorry, it really was just a question, I know that Sho recently got her entry through PR,( we all had agreed that it was completely different from the original) only to be then told it had to go through the update forum. If my question sounded odd, I aplolgise, I haven't yet many experiences with these aspects of the guide.
