Hey folks smiley - smiley

Whilst you've been away, I wrote a whole heap of Edited Guide Entries on Orkney.

A2225170 - St Magnus
A2430172 - Food
A2265473 - Cliffs and Beaches
A2503388 - Italian Chapel
A2903843 - Ring of Brodgar
A2903834 - Skara Brae
A2903825 - Maeshowe
And of course A6069152 is in PR at the moment and is about an Orcadian, Dr John Rae, Arctic Explorer smiley - ok

Now, had the Uni been around at the time, I would have signed up for a solo project. But you weren't. So I didn't.

But can I claim Orkney as a project now please? I have more entries to write about the place in due course and it'ld be good to have my name on the list of Uni contributors smiley - smiley

In the spirit of Universities who accept other institutions' qualifications and employers accept 'relevant experience' as the equivalent of formal University procedures smiley - tongueout

Sorry for the delay there. The University is one of those pages that we only review once or twice a week, and you posted over a weekend.

Which is all a preable to say *yes*, you can have a Field Researcher's badge. smiley - magic

Would my series on Roman Britain qualify for a retrospective badge? It was 9 entries totally solo, but done before the University was reintroduced. smiley - smiley

It certainly ought to smiley - ok

Hey Jims smiley - smiley... Is there a list of projects somewhere? Those that have been completed and those that are ongoing? I've hunted the Uni pages, but can't find anything smiley - erm It'ld be interesting to see what's been done.

And I missed my entry A2497292 on the scuttling of the German Fleet when I made that list above smiley - tongueout

There isn't an official list - there were incomplete lists on the old Uni pages, but we removed them prior to the reopening as we wanted to focus on new projects. Jodan made a stab at a complete list though.

Having said that, it's a pleasure to present Elentari with a brand new Field Researcher badge. smiley - bubbly
