h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Pardon the slang...

This entry seems to need updating. Not only is it older, it's very subjective for an edited guide entry. What's with the Dreamcast-bashing?

Well, now that the PS2 is out, I'd at least like to see some technical specs on here or something. We can do that in the Update forum, right?

Yes, it certainly needs to be updated. Would you like to do the job?

Sure!

*sheepish*

Umm... how do I go about that? I'm not even sure where the update forum is.

Ah... just found that the original author has a replacement entry in the works at A523973. He hasn't updated for a while though...

If you wanted to do it yourself, you should:

1. Drop a note at the original author's space to tell him you're doing it - this is just politeness. Since he hasn't been on the site in over three months, you don't have to ask his permission or anything.

2. Write the new entry, incorporating bits of the old entry (you can cut and paste them), add the original author to the list of researchers on your entry. Put a line at the start saying it is an update of the existing entry, and mention the U number of the existing entry.

3. Submit your entry using the Submit for Review button. When asked which forum you want it in, say Update Forum.

After that all you have to do is hang around and react to any suggestions made in the Update Forum.
