'''Newsletter No 9 - 6 September 2017''' | |||
<div class="mw-collapsible-content"> | |||
'''Dear Author,''' | |||
'''One good news and one urgent request, please!''' | |||
'''GOOD NEWS!''' With some delay, we have received the first proofs of the Encyclopaedia. As | |||
you will see it is not perfect and needs typos, misspellings and other types of irregularities to | |||
be sorted out.<br> | |||
Most commonly, the mistakes cluster in places taken-for- granted, such as titles and subtitles | |||
of chapters, entries, figures, tables and around places where you were asked to provide | |||
additional information (references, page numbers, images to be inserted). Placing of images, | |||
figures and tables is also sometimes a problem. | |||
You should first check with the Table of contents to see if your entry is in volume 1 or 2, and | |||
then search the relevant pdf file with CTRL+F for your name/number of the entry or follow | |||
the page numbers in the Table of the Contents. | |||
Please mark only essential corrections, and ensure that your corrections are clearly | |||
described. I will be the one to integrate all corrections for the final file, so please make sure | |||
that I could understand what you mean. The best way is to state:<br> | |||
'''Number of the entry'''<br> | |||
'''Page number''' on which correction is needed<br> | |||
'''Para beginning with''' ‘quote’ or the number of paragraph on the page<br> | |||
'''Line number''' in that paragraph<br> | |||
'''DELETE:''' ‘say what’<br> | |||
'''SHOULD BE:''' ‘say how it should look after I have inserted the correction’. | |||
<p> | |||
'''URGENT:''' Please send all corrections to informality2014@gmail.com AND copy to | |||
a.ledeneva@ucl.ac.uk with PROOFS_CORRECTIONS_VOL.1 or PROOFS_CORRECTIONS_VOL.2 | |||
in the subject line.<br> | |||
Once we have a list, we will collate all corrections onto the whole book PDF and return the | |||
proofs to the Press.<br> | |||
I should be grateful if you could check your entry as soon as possible and return your | |||
correction by 18 September 2017. If no correction is needed for your entry, please confirm | |||
so in writing by email.</p> | |||
I do hope you are pleased with the proofs – there are some easy-to- fix mistakes of course – | |||
so do let me know. | |||
Best wishes, | |||
