 | Editor's update! Posted by Lindsay Perigo on 5/13/2004, 4:42am | |
| Boys & Girls, Let me ask again - those of you who've submitted articles - for your forebearance. The embarrassment of riches remains as embarrassingly rich as when I last posted. And some of you who've been in the queue for a while will continue to be the victims of queue-jumping if something super-topical is submitted. Tonight's article on prisoner abuse by Tibor is an obvious case in point. None of this means that your efforts are not appreciated or that they won't eventually get to air. They are & they will! Let me also urge all of you *not* to treat the "tick" option & subsequent Atlas icons as a substitute for a post. It's quite demoralising for writers to go to all the trouble of producing a masterpiece & to get no feedback. It's quite *mystifying* for writers to get three Atlas icons for an article ... & no feedback in the form of posts, so they have no idea just *what* it was that prompted folk to click the tick! Remember - reward the good for being the good, fulsomely, not lazily! One point of punctuation for article-submitters: Full stops (periods) & commas *inside* quotation marks, please, not this modern barbaric obscenity of placing them *outside*. Er, I mean, *outside.* This point is not subject to negotiation or dissent. Anyone who places periods & commas outside quote marks in future will be reported to Dr Diabolical Dialectical for a lecture on the Synergistic Paradigms of Dialectical Punctuation. And believe me, you wouldn't want that! Linz | ||
