A couple of notes of interest for this project.

  1. Both Index: and Page: have a spelling mistake in the proper name of the firm: Gridlestone vs. Girdlestone.
  2. Upon validation, I was made aware that removal of section breaks was not the thing to do. Sorry. This occurred until the start of Chapter X. I assume this refers also to br/ command that I'm seeing at the top of a page when the previous page ends with a paragraph. I was checking before edit to make sure that the nop template was to be used or not. If break command is there as a redundancy to make sure that the paragraphs remain separated, I'll leave these in place as well.
  3. I was having problems with publisher's typos with missing quote marks, both beginning and closing. SIC template apparently does not allow for the first parameter to be blank. As I can't remember pages this happened, I'll give a couple of samples. Assume closing quote mark after period:
blah, blah. (used) This looks like 'blah.'" on hovering, which doesn't "read" quite right.
blah, blah. (unused) On preview of this page before saving, this looks to be the correct template to use.
If this is not the way this typo is to be handled, I'm sure a more experienced proofer processing the validation will improve.

Red-linked pages at end of book proper are publisher book listings. Considered as advertising? Special pages: List of index pages shows this project as 0 pages validated, 3 proofread, 400 not proofread (before updating status to "To be Validated" (?)
