I can't create a phrasebook !!

Question

I can't create a phrasebook entry! I added some entries before they have not been approved yet. I have waited for a long time, but they have still not been approved. Do I have to wait for an admin to approve them or what?

lovely, I thought that you might want to know that it's more correct to use the word "approved" instead of the word "approval" in your 1st two sentences. - Pajaro44, Jul 12, 2010

Answer 1

Just to let you know, as I am sure you do, there are a ton of suggested phrases and I am sure that Carlos and mountaingirl are going as fast as they can. I know I had to wait awhile for mine to get approved so don't give up hope!! For kicks and giggles, try going through the phrasebook and look for doubles or even triples to tell the admin. This will help out tremendously!! Keep adding and check before you add a phrase! It's a great feature!!

Answer 2

Lovely, be patient .

They will go in eventually, but the moderators are very busy at the moment and there are a lot of phrases waiting to go in. Also, they need to be approved by two different mods - these things take time.

Great call nametaken! - Jason7R, Jul 12, 2010

Answer 3

Hi, Lovely...Yes, the phrases need to be approved by two moderators. There are three moderators for the Phrasebook; one is on a bit of a leave of absence, one is very busy right now with work obligations, and one is temporarily on a dial-up access to the internet, and is somewhat impeded in that regard.

Your patience will be rewarded!! They tend to get approved in big clumps, like maybe several dozen at a time, and then a bit of a drought. I think some of it is because the second moderator is only available in clumps of time right now.

Bien dicho, mountaingirl, eres haciendo gran trabaja y porsupuesto, Carlos y la otra persona. :) - Jason7R, Jul 12, 2010

Answer 4

¡Ten paciencia, lovely! o ¡Está Sé paciente, lovely!

Have patience, lovely! or Be patient, lovely!

I submitted a phrase in early May and it still hasn't been approved.

Please correct my Spanish! - Pajaro44, Jul 12, 2010

Sé paciente or Ten paciencia :) - Benz, Jul 12, 2010

Thank you, Benz! - Pajaro44, Jul 12, 2010
