so, you're now declining proposals 'cause of some capitals missing? (i got at least half!) - that's a bit confusing. so this is a new policy?
and are you going to follow up with 'resubmit' msg like the one above? or this is just a one time deal? and i'll have to figure out myself why it was declined?
'cause typing up msg takes longer then correcting 2 caps? just curious...except of course when there are 100 of them ev. day...
perhaps then we need some kind of error-on-submit msg along the lines: incorrect format. so i'll know, it's just caps, quotes, parens and other such wonders?
i can handle caps (i saw post about conventions, and intended to follow surely...just somehow not all the way yet, but promise to be more dilligent).
i just went and looked at other entries in the DB and they were listed as Begonia (Begonia x hiemalis) - so i put mine the same by example, and you're saying don't put parens? - now that's REALLY confusing.
i think next time i'll just open up a post right here and whatever i can provide i'll provide and let you figure it out. 'cause some stuff i just am not sure about, i am not a specialist. And if that won't fly, hey, i'll just skip some more complicated entries all-together and dump it in a generic entry. i see plenty of cultivar pics that belong in cultivar entries , dumped in generic instead - 'cause it's too much to submit a proposal, perhaps? in my view it's not a good road to take though.
you see, i thought i was quite careful about mine, but this is getting a bit hairy.
plus i am not sure if i can figure out 'trade name' or series or licencer by myself. i actually took it from the horses mouth so to speak: red fox site
http://www.redfox.de/patweb/De...
and there it said series Amstel, not Red Fox Amstel. how am i supposed to know? i figured, you'll know better anyway... and i put (dummen) in parens 'cause i was not sure if red fox IS a trade name or not, but i thought it's useful to know hybridizer. Now you're calling them breeders. is that different from hybridizer/licencer?
in jest: if and when you start insisting that all msgs should have proper caps too...i'll prolly loose interest in posting....
