Thank you for reviewing my article.
I made a mistake in my source citation for an article. I left the "www." on the address.
I do want Ed to know that I read the guidelines carefully and tried to remove the link prior to submission. I know that the guidelines suggest removing the "www." I thought that the requester wanted sources cited, so I used modified MLA style, including the web address. I made the mistake of assuming that since I removed the hyperlink using WORD, it would stay removed when uploaded. Lesson learned.
I can resubmit, is that correct? When I do, should I note that it is a resubmission? Thanks again.

Just resubmit. Not withstanding MLA or any other guidelines, do not include live links in your submissions. google.com is fine, www.google.com is a no no.

Re: Resubmission, and source citation question.
For everyone's benefit:
No need to note it is a resubmission either. Ed remembers everything he reads so he knows it is a resubmission.
From the FAQs http://www.constant-content.com/about/writer-faq.htm My article was rejected for containing website addresses or links. Why?
Buyers prefer articles without links because they want readers to stay on their websites. Web addresses or links can lead visitors away. Links are only permissible if the requester specifically asks for it. Make sure to add this information into the short summary so that the editor can see it.

Good luck.

I wish I had such a memory. Ed must be a master of so many fields!Ed remembers everything he reads so he knows it is a resubmission.
