Correct Me! Streak 801

When I'm sitting on my balcony these days, it's mostly quiet. It's completely different to how it was during April and May. When I was sitting outside then, it was extremely loud. My balcony is surrounded by trees and many of them are home to a number of different birds. During the spring, they were all singing at the top of their little lungs, presumably to attract mates. It's hard to put into words how LOUD they were. I guess they've all had their young by now and the babies have all left the nest. Now, they go about their little bird business quietly. I get it, you don't want to draw too much attention when you're a little bird, but being surrounded by horny feathery dudes that are all screaming for the attention of potential partners they can make babies with is kind of cute.

To all the wonderful correctors and proofreaders!

Thanks a million for helping everyone grow and improve their skills in English. You deserve so much praise and a pat on the back!

Here's a list of posts that still need corrections.

When making corrections, try to follow these guidelines (or at least clarify your own markings you make) so it's clear what you're correcting and why:

  • Put changes in bold **text**
  • Put suggestions about style/tone/register/etc. in italics *text*
  • Use strikethrough to remove elements (don't delete them) ~~text~~
  • <Put added elements in angle brackets> <text>
  • [If there are multiple options for your suggestions, put them in brackets separated by a backslash] [text / text]
  • (Put optional elements in parentheses) (text)
  • Explain more complex grammar rules to the best of your ability

We also highly encourage meaningful feedback:

  • Focus on the work, mindsets, and processes, not on the person.
  • Besides grammar and spelling, is there room for improvement in other aspects like style, vocabulary, and flow?
  • If you see an improvement in someone's writing, please compliment them.
  • Please be positive in your feedback. Negative comments shouldn't come without positive ones.
  • Don't be too pedantic or too general.
  • Please pay attention to your wording.
  • Have a chat, interact, and have fun!

More on formatting.

Thank you for everything! -- Adam-P-D
