I&#39;ve done my Ph.D in History and have written a small writeup on events at Libya. This is the first time that I&#39;m contributing.

There is a lot missing (or more that could be explained) that could shed some light on the situation there, it left me wanting to know more however I will consider this and return, and suggest.

Lots of people want to read about hte long history between the US and Libyia because it&#39;s the only way to understand the current conflict. I love the title - it&#39;s a great. There&#39;s a few things that I think could be improved, but they&#39;re just my opinion. Would you want me to go through them with you? And welcome to h2g2, it&#39;s great to see a new user contributing, and you&#39;ve obviously got lots of knowledge and lots to write about. I love historical entries, so it&#39;s great to have a historian on board.

A couple of things to start thinking about I would suggest are perhaps changing the tense, and replacing the & with &#39;and&#39;. <BB< Read the First Reply to this Posting Subject: A82923348 - Gunning Gaddafi Posted Mar 25, 2011 by h5ringer (Scout, Sub-Editor & Guide Editor) - The Maestro Cat This is a reply to this Posting   Posting 5 Hi There Dr David and welcome to h2g2. This is a very topical subject for an entry. I liked your 'dateline' approach in the first half of what you've written, but like others, I agree that it needs expanding. I would keep this dateline section in the present tense. The second half is quite different and you must be careful to remain factual and not to cross over into opinion - something you've been successful in doing thus far - well done. As with the first, the second section needs substantial expansion, but it is definitely a good start. h5ringer Scout Read the First Reply to this Posting Subject: A82923348 - Gunning Gaddafi Posted Apr 12, 2011 by Z This is a reply to this Posting   Posting 6 Any progress? It would be great to get this in The Guide?

This is a reply to this Posting   Posting 10 Unfortunately, I find this nearly unreadable in the combination I'm using (Ubuntu/Firefox/Brunel) because of things like curly apostrophes. These don't work properly in the character encoding used in the older skins. Sometimes a browser will guess the intended character and fill it in, but Firefox on Ubuntu doesn't. I can read around all the funny little symbols it puts in, but not when I'm tired. TRiG.

Well, unless the author returns to read the comments here, and then makes any suggested edits - this Entry is doomed.

That was indeed very encouraging. Shall surely keep the tips in mind next time. Regards and Good Wishes. David.

However was a bit tied up with work. Thanks a lot for showing concern.

I can't help agreeing with Gnomon that real events have overtaken this article somewhat, a shame as there's a big Libya shaped gap in the guide. May I propose Flea Market? <BB< Read the First Reply to this Posting Subject: A82923348 - Gunning Gaddafi Posted May 29, 2012 by Lanzababy - Guide Editor This is a reply to this Posting   Posting 18 Yes, I think so. I would also make a note that this Entry can be reclaimed from the Flea Market by the original author, unless anyone rescues it before then. Conversation list Conversation list
