Hi BeowulfSchaeffer smiley - smiley

I've been allocated your fine entry on Wired Coffee to sub-edit, and you can see my edited version here: A37676677

Please take a look and let me know if you're happy with it.


I have two questions for you:

smiley - biro

Do you mean there's green tea flavour in the scone, or do you mean the scone tastes great with green tea?


smiley - biro

What's a mask name? Does the art on the wall show a mask or a character wearing a mask with this name written on it? I'm not sure.


smiley - cheers Icy

To anwser you questions scones severed with tea and it should be named not name which is my faultsmiley - blush. I like what you have done with the article but was wondering if you could make one change that I meant to make myself before it got recomanded. Can you change big Amrican cities to really big Amrican cities becuase there is a small but not that small and very vocal group of St.Louisans who get incredably angry if you imply that St.Louis it not a big city. Also I can see why you did it and since you have more experiance there is a good chance you are right but the reason I didn't link to the article on Japanes tea was because it is almost entierly on the cultral signifance of the tea and the preporation ceromony and while the wired drink uses the same specail leaves it doesn't use the Japanese tea ceromony or have much link to the cultral heratige.

Thanks BS smiley - ok

I've fixed those, removed the Japan link, and returned it to the h2g2 Editors. The queue's not long, so look out for it on the Front Page over the next week or two. They'll also send you an e-mail on the day it gets published there. smiley - smiley

One more thing - if you click on the edited version and then subscribe to it, then you'll be notified if anyone starts a conversation on your entry.

See you on the Front Page!

smiley - cheers Icy
