Okay I have been trying to help people along here or there, but it has gotten to a point where I need to address this. I am NOT singling one person out. This is an issue across the board in both feds. When writing matches and segments, I GREATLY appreciate people doing it. But if I have to go through and heavily edit a match or segment, I might as well just write it myself. I am not trying to be ungrateful, but it can be frustrating.
One. Please, please, please check your spelling and grammar. I get it. Mistakes happen. I fuck up ALOT. A couple here or there? No worries. But some of these are just riddled with errors. Please, proofread a bit.
Two. Make sure you are above the word count. 950 with entrances. It is not that hard to write. And if you struggle, don't sign up for one.
Three. Little pet peeves. I try to make it easy. I have full staff pages for a season. Please use the announcers instead of "Announcer:". Or the actual interviewer instead of "Interviewer:". I will update/revamp the staff site a little better. But West/Barkley/Cooper are commentary for RW. Phoenix is for WCG. Shae is ring announcer for RW. Mackenzie for WCG. Hannah and Richard are interviewers for RW. Mia is for WCG. Even John Blade knows who the interviewers are!
Four. Little things I need to clarify. Please, write out ONE TWO THREE instead of 1 2 3. Words look better to me aesthetically. Make sure to use punctuation, do not have run on sentences, and break up blocks of action somewhat. If you do not feel comfortable writing commentary, I have ZERO issues writing it in. But make sure to make a spot for it. And make sure you check capitalization as well.
Any questions? I am happy to answer here or in private. If you are unsure, ASK. Please. Ask.
