Welcome, welcome, welcome, to the wonderful site of H2G2 (otherwise known as hootoo - you will see this word a lot). I am an ACE, and I'm here to help you settle into your new home winkeye

H2G2 is a living, breathing guide to Life, the Universe and Everything, and it's something YOU can take part in. You can write entries on all manner of subjects, and if it's something you think would look good in our Edited Guide (where all the best research goes), you can submit it to Peer Review. Take a look at the writing-guidelines for more information on that. smiley

I've created a little list of links, just for you, so click here A4992357 and have a look at them (actually the links are my daughter's...but hey!! Hootoo is one big family biggrin )

If you click on each link, they will take you to parts of hootoo no sane person should ever go alone on this site.....

......but as it seems no one here is sane, it doesn't matter does it!

Have a look around, pop into my personal space and read some conversations that I have on the go at the moment and you will see how things work. Don't be frightened to jump in on conversations, hootooers don't bite (well, some of them do, but I'll steer you well clear of those), just be aware of the thread you are reading and whether or not it is a private conversation between two people.

Remember, if you get lost, shout for help and hopefully I'll be around to give you a helping hand. In case I'm not around, just leave a message here ACE and someone will be with you just as soon as they can. Failing that, just click on MY SPACE on the left hand side of your screen and you'll get back to your personal space.

Remember, I'm here to help. magic

lil xxx

It means Acting Community Editor

ie A volunteer greeter biggrin We pride ourselves on giving personal greetings, rather than automated ones.

Try reading some of the Edited Guide entries and then you can see what is expected.

If you have an idea for an entry, click on the Advanced Search, it will give you an clue as to whether your idea has already been done. Even then, you could still update a previously edited article. ok

Most of all, dontpanic and enjoy the site biggrin

What a fantastic first article. applause

I am going to give you some suggestions, okay?

Everytime you use a year.. ie 1609 = Always put a comma after it or a full stop if needed... ie 1609,

17th century = 17th Century

dates are to be put into house style

ie 25 August, 1835,

A comma after the month and the year. Also there is no th, rd, st or nd for the day.

Others will give you lots of encouragement and assistance too hug

well however much sun they get in the summer at Nutwood, i don't think that anyone has ever got sunburn, so it would be pretty hard to join them together...unfortunatlysadface

but i will say that i heard somthing last week, about how Superdrug launched a campaign urging the government to axe VAT on childrens sunscreen. they sent a letter to the gov. and got a reply saying that, as childrens clothes are VAT free they should wear longsleeved tops and trousers!!

now thats how i got the idea for doing sunburnjester

as for rupert, well, i'm sort of a fan but i was more surprised that no-one had done it before.

steve

Having looked into it a bit it looks like a University project could be run on characters like this. For there are quite a few missing in the Guide. I'll help you with Rupert already started looking at its history. smiley

Hi all, excuse my butting in here, I'm not after the scones lil, and no need to lock the cake away laugh

Opti, it might be a good idea to finish some of the many Entries you have started on, before getting involved in even more. It's great that you want contribute to the Guide, but as you know they don't get into the Edited Guide (EG) until they're finished, picked, accepted and been though the editing process ok smiley

Hi Steve, and Welcome from me too smiley You can find out more about h2g2's University at A339059 it's quite a lot to take on for someone new, come to think of it, it's quite a lot for anyone to take on. erm I've just started one myself, but not got very far with it yet. smiley

i am really confused, i checked my e-mail today (the first time in a few days) saying my entry had been removed because 'it contains material on which the copyright appears to be owned by someone else.' (i really tried not to do that, but i must have done it by accident) it was posted on 24th.erm

anyway, if its been removed, how come its still there. i mean i will quite happily edit it some more, but i'm not sure what has happened.

any help will be verrry gratefully accepted ok

Steve is this your only entry for the Guide?

The email should have mentioned which entry it was removing.

Then again, you might have altered whatever sentence was causing the problem, without realising it.

It can be difficult sometimes to find the words to make it into your own work, sometimes we can be just a little too close to the wording of the original article.

Anyway, you still seem to be getting along well in there.. ok
