Hi 42donpanic!
You've got my entry on Kinga the world hitchhiker to sub
I made an error here:
HEADER Learning New Languages
On their incredible journey around the planet they picked up how to make themselves understood in Portuguese and learned to speak Spanish.
We've been travelling this world for over two years now. We found the world an interesting place, where one could spend a lifetime travelling and still not discovering all its wonders. We can see clearly that quality of the world is quality of people who live in it. And that material wealth doesn't have anything to do with it.
- Kinga and Chopin speaking in 1991.
The date should be 2001, not 1991.
and here:
HEADER Hitchhiking Around the World
Kinga and her partner Radoslaw 'Chopin' Siuda, both vegans, started hitchhiking around the world in 1989, because they believed that 'there is no better way to get to know the culture and the people of the places you're travelling through'.
1989 should be 1999
about that,
Thanks a lot
GB

Ok, I think I am pretty much finished subbing 'Kinga'. I have fixed those dates and added links and tweaked some things. So if you would take a look and make sure everything is alright? Also, there is a quote in there that looks to me like it is missing a word...
'We are learning a lot along the way. Learned that the way and....'
Is this missing *I* learned that.... Or is this just the way she said it?
The subbed version is here : A12737630

That is the way she said it, she wasn't a native English speaker.
Thanks for changing the dates
One thing I noticed, you changed "entry" to "Entry" - it doesn't need to be capitalised does it? No worries, it's great, well done!

I'm pretty sure I read that Guide Entry, Edited Entry, Edited Guide etc should be capitalised.
I'll go ahead and return it to the Editors then.

Welcome. I also sent back 'Shoulder'. There wasn't a whole lot to do to it - Though I did have to fix some American English spelling, I take the original author must have been American.

I never knew there was so much to say on the shoulder!
So far, Subbing doesn't seem to be as hard as I was afraid it would be, and I'm looking forward to another batch. Unfortunatly, I won't be able to do anymore till week after next, as I will be gone for a week starting tomorrow...

I'm enjoying it too
No worries, there's not that many left to be subbed out at ComingUp - although there's two of mine
Have a great holiday!
