Hi jimcracker,

As I told you before, we require a certain level of correct English spelling and grammar in submissions to The Post. Your submission can be difficult to follow because of its erratic punctuation, which also generates a lot of work for our editors.

If you could see about capitalising words - like "I" and at the beginnings of sentences - using correct punctuation such as commas and full-stops, and generally making your entry easier to understand, we would be happy to reconsider it for inclusion in The Post.smiley - smiley

hi
-
ive just seen my entry on the post for yesterday.
-
i spent hours altering the whole guide entry, so can you tell me why parts are missing, its all jumbled up, the pic (url) link is mising, the info to the articles in the papers not there, and near the ref to manchester, there is something like a typo.
-
it took me over two months to gather all the info to put it together, and they call it (a tale) jim jimcrackersmiley - sadface

Jim, when you submit something to smiley - thepost you grant us the permission to edit it as necessary. We edited for spelling and grammar and overall clarity, in addition to length and content. You can notice, by comparing original and Post versions of other writers' submissions, that smiley - thepost often rewords things or edits them in ways to enhance their clarity and readability.

the main body of the story is lost, but as you say the editers know and can do what they want with an entry
-
but if my effort at first needed to be ajusted, as i did, even the entry on the post, as a worse fopar than i ever had, ie the section with manchester in, there is something that isnt in mine, or should even be in the story.
-
i have altered my original to conply, i think the post one should also at least correct their mistake. jimcracker jim
