I just want to mention that when your posts don't receive a reply, it's probably better to leave them so that then we can clearly see which topics have received a reply and which ones haven't. When I've not been on line for a few days, I often go into "Quick Links" and then "Unanswered Topics". Because you've added a post on your threads they now no longer show up as "Unanswered Topics".


Cheers

Thank you for telling me that. Another translator had instructed me to just add a request on to the original one so they aren't translated twice.
Here are the ones I still need translated:
Birth: Fioravante De Grandis: requested 5 Oct. 2020 at 0813
Maria Theresa Pace: requested 5 Oct. 2020 at 0813
Teodora De Grandis: requested 5 Oct. 2020 at 0817
Vincenzo Giovannantonio Di Benedetto: requested 05 Oct 2020 at 1447

Thank you very much. I always appreciate your help Angela.

Ok! I'll chip away at those others, if no one else gets to them first.

Re setting up two threads for the same translation, in cases where the first thread hasn't been replied to, I would agree not to do that because it can often just double our work. Personally, I would just leave it. We can easily see when a thread hasn't been replied to because it will have a "zero" reply noted. (Just bear in mind that we are all volunteers here, we have families, we work, we get busy, we get sick etc and sometimes it will take a few days to reply to posts, especially when there are a lot posted at the same time and fewer people available to help translate. )
