The entry you are correcting is:

Title	Twilight
Original entry	When Jacob and Bella are walking along first beach in chapter 7 of Twilight, he tells Bella that the guy who said "the Cullens don't come here," was Sam Uley. But in chapter 5 of Eclipse Jacob tells Bella that Sam had phased BEFORE she came to Forks, that he hadn't told anyone where he'd been, and that it wasn't good for him to be around Leah. If it wasn't good for him to be around Leah, then those same rules would apply to other friends too, like Jacob and Bella and all the other people at the bonfire in chapter 7 of Twilight. It makes no sense, if it wasn't good for Sam to be around friends/people (not including the council), then why was he at the bonfire that day in chapter 7 of Twilight? [Jacob said it wasn't good for him to be around Leah because he was dangerous, constantly in danger of losing his temper, as all new werewolves are. Jacob couldn't be around anyone until he got control of his temper, either. By the time the bonfire occurred, the only ones still new enough to lose their temper and explode were Leah, Quil, and Seth, and there were enough experienced werewolves present to prevent injuries. Plus, Sam had been a wolf for quite some time by then, and could easily change long enough to demand the pissed wolf to calm down. They only can't be around people as long as they are in danger of losing their tempers.]

Read very carefully

ALL corrections of corrections must be in the following format, with NO EXCEPTIONS. Write a sentence or two explaining why the existing correction is wrong, then type "Reworded text: " (you don't need the quotes) followed by how the mistake should be worded to avoid someone correcting it the same way again. For example:

Existing corrected entry

"Kate and Charlie live in Toronto. When we first see them in their car, at the beginning of the movie, it has no license plate in the front. In Ontario, cars are required by law to have a plate in the front as well as in the back. [This isn't really a mistake. I live in California where the same law exists and I, as well as many other Californians, don't have a front license plate on my car.]"

What you'd write:

California might be lax about that law, but Ontario definitely isn't. Reworded text: Kate and Charlie live in Toronto. When we first see them in their car, at the beginning of the movie, it has no license plate in the front. In Ontario, cars are required by law to have a plate in the front as well as in the back. While some other jurisdictions may be lax in applying their two-plates law, Ontario isn't.

ANY recorrection submitted in the wrong format will be automatically dismissed. The short explanation of why the correction's wrong is just as important as providing the reworded text - if that's not included your entry will just be deleted. If an existing correction is complete garbage and the original entry doesn't need any rewording, explain why the correction's garbage, then just write "Reworded text: none needed." If the correction is fundamentally valid, but is worded badly or contains wrong information, just use the "change text" option.

To reiterate: What you write after "Reworded text:" should essentially be the existing mistake, clarified where necessary so no-one will misunderstand it and correct it wrongly again. If it's anything else, your recorrection will be ignored, so DON'T JUST WRITE A CORRECTION - WHAT YOU WRITE NEEDS TO BE A COMPLETE SUBMISSION. If you have any queries, please contact me.
