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

Entry: Sunday Market in Valletta, Malta - A280180
Author: Gareth McKittrick - U112601

Here is my submission. It is accurate as I have experienced this matter several times.

Short and sweet

The only point to make is that entries for the Edited Guide are written in third person throughout. That's easily acomplished:
"in my second home" -> in this researcher's second home
"It is this hustle and bustle which I personally love" -> which makes the place so lovely
"So if you are in Malta, I suggest that you hop" -> you ought to hop
"You might even see me there!" -> You might even find fellow researchers

You should insert a link to the entry A408601 - Malta (see the <./>GuideML-Clinic</.> for details, h2g2 internal links are done like this:
Malta
If you can be bothered to switch to GuideML then the paragraph tag ... would come in very handy to separate the, er.., paragraphs. Otherwise, double line breaks instead of single ones would do the job too.

Ok, but im always very busy researching stuff for the guide. Can't one of you guys make the changes on my behalf?

I'm afraid, no... at least not me. I'm busy researching *my* pieces. Besides, you want to earn the credits, don't you? So you'll have to do the work too Apart from that, I guess it won't take more than a couple of minutes to do the changes.

' Can't one of you guys make the changes on my behalf?
' Words Fail - I think I've seen just about everything now.

Gareth, one of the really great things about PR is that, providing you are able to take constructive criticism - and some people aren't - it will help you to be a really good (or at least a better) writer.

Come on now - pull your finger out!

Hello
I think you should mention in a footnote that the buses at the terminal are sent out so many minutes after the last one went, because the first time I was there it was very confusing when a man with a stop watch wouldn't let me get on a nearly empty bus and then told it to go.

As Gareth is a little too busy to make any changes, I've removed this from PR until he has some more time.

How that? Has it been picked or did Gareth contact you in some hidden way?

Anyway, there's another one in PR from the same author: F48874?thread=174520

I took it upon myself to take it out due to his comments in post 3. He has said he's too busy to make changes - meaning he's not going to, so it can come out of PR. In the other thread he has made no mention of not doing anything, so it'll have to stay there for a bit longer.

If I'm messing up any Scout type stuff, let me know and I won't do it.

No, no, you're not messing anything up! I just wanted to know
