Hi, Joe. That would be wonderful if any people want to do transcriptions. I'm presently about five URs away from starting the Qs, and it would be a great help. Maeve did one a few days back and it sure helps lighten the load.

Something I would suggest is that people familiar with the language/dialect handle songs in that language/dialect. Most North Americans might not able to do songs in Geordie, and place names present problems for non-native speakers, especially British/Irish place names, and vice versa. However, all help will be gratefully accepted.

At the rate this is going from me, I'll be done the first go-round before next Friday. But rumanci is gonna be at it for at least a month anyway.

So, in a word, YES it would help and NO it wouldn't confuse the system.

The stuff rumanci is doing is a different matter, and I think that would be best left in her hands so it is consistent and you get the info in a manner that doesn't have you having to ask questions about the info you receive.

I just got the word you'll have the Bs tonight.
