...is about to be sub edited and generally nipped, tucked, poked, prodded, caressed, nudged and fondled into the Edited Guide by me. I remember doing your Armenian Genocide one a while ago, which was also good.
As there shouldn't be much to do, I might even sort it over the weekend, but will keep you posted in any case.
Cheers

...and, incidentally, your Telephone Systems entry struck a chord here. For a living, I scamper around in universal DMS translations tables, and their equivalents on Ericsson AXE 10, Nokia DX220 and System X exchanges. Bit of a Centrex demon, too, in my time.

Thanks, DMS. You did a great job on the Armenian one and I'm sure you will on this one too. God luck.

OK. I think I'm pretty much done now. Changed none of the syntax that I can remember, added a little links bit at the end. I'll leave it hanging around for a couple of days before I send it off, in case you want to change/add anything.
Cheers

Looks good
Just a couple of thoughts on the links at the end -
Interview - mention that it's in audio as well?
H2g2 music link - a bit vague I thought - why not link instead to search edited mccartney?
It's up to you - as far as I'm concerned it's good to go

Oh, sorry, yes, one more thing. You deleted my note to the italics! I do want them to see it!
In case you haven't got it, it's this:
Author's note to Eds: The subheaders are direct quotations, so I have set them iclc rather than cap sig wds.

Righty-ho. Done all that and sent it back.
Cheers!
