I've just been asked which is THE critical page to sub to and I can't find it.

Is there any chance that all the various h2g2 Future pages and accounts could be tidied up a bit? eg put back links on the top of every page, and label one page h2g2 Future Announcements.

Is the H2G2 Future - NooHooToos core volunteers A page the Announcements page?

Let me know if I can help with any of that!

Hi Kea

Your suggestion about standardising the format is well made. It's not the most urgent task though; we are concentrating on the things that MUST be done for the migration to be successful, everything else is a bonus.

However, the Community MUST be kept informed for the migration to be successful, so we are keeping it simple (though it may not look like that!)

Very simply - the two key pages are:

The H2G2 Future Account - U14914070

The H2G2 Future Announcements Page - A85834173

Everything else spreads out from those two pages.

ALL important announcements will be posted as a new thread on A85834173 in exactly the same way the Editors use A639056.

There will be updates once a week (currently planned for Tuesdays) to give everyone a breather in between-times. So each announcement will be in a standard format, it will include a lot of information and links to new things, but they will only happen once per week.

Ben

Thanks Ben. That's the one I was looking for ok


I still think a few tweaks would make things much clearer:

- put the word Announcement in large friendly letters at the top of the announcement's page.

- add a bit of what you've just said (the Tuesday thing).

- backlink


Would it help if I wrote the gml and sent it to someone to cut and paste?
