Can I have a Sub for that?
Bluebottle Started conversation Jul 9, 2010
Hello
I'm looking for a sub-editor volunteer for a Beatles/Film related Uni Project. The project page and all the details are here: A67794051
Any questions, just ask.

I've emailed the Eds direct as I can't seem to access the subs' offsite forum

What have you e-mailed them direct - are you volunteering?

That's okay GB - hopefully we'll get a chance to work together again another time.

I think it's completed now.
Any takers yet?

Not yet, but we'll let you know. We might be able to pick it up and look at it, it's a very interesting subject.

Incidentally, if anyone wants to sub-edit a Uni project about the animated Asterix films, that will be coming soon!

I could take it on. I'm not the fastest sub in the world, but it looks interesting, and I'd be happy to do it.

Thanks David - good man. We'll start assigning them to you.

Bluebottle Posted Nov 4, 2010
Have they been assigned as I still seem able to edit them?

David B - Singing Librarian Owl Posted Nov 5, 2010
And I can't edit them. 
I do keep checking, but haven't chased it up. If we don't hear from the Eds soon, I'll send a gentle e-reminder.

Any chance you could change all those non-standard characters to special codes before they're passed to the sub-editor, Bluebottle. That would save David a lot of trouble. The n-dashes should be – for example.

Is David B still around? I've not seen him for about 6 months.

He contacted me to say he wouldn't be acting as a sub-editor in the new h2g2.
What's the situation? Did he take on this project? Were the entries transferred over to his ownership?
