Dear JayKay.
I have altered the beginning of this index to show you the correct format for transcribing. Could you please correct the rest of the list. May I also suggest you read the FAQs on the forums ahere you will find the guidlines for transcribing OSNBs.
Many thanks
Nora -Mod.
Thank you. This was the first index page I had done, and I'm still finding my feet and digesting everything else I had read.
Can you also confirm if I've been transcribing the descriptive situation comments correctly, by including them in the descriptive remarks column. I was copying what others before me had done.
Thanks
JayKay
Hi, yes thay can either go in the desc or the continued/extras box.
Please do join us on the forums where you can ask any questions and have access to lots of experienced transcribes and can find the most up to date guidelines. Many thanks for correcting this index so quickly.
