Thanks. I will get the writer to re-activate it.

Perhaps you could get them take out whatever it is that contravenes the house rules?

Lonnytunes - Winter Is Here

Nothing in it contravenes the house rules. I guess the writer just can't be bothered to reactivate the article

Hmmm - always though the "contravenes house rules" message was different to the "awaiting moderation" one. Or was that one just around about the time of the BBC taking over?

Lonnytunes - Winter Is Here

You may very well be correct. The article includes links to pictures of birds plus links to sound files featuring bird calls. This wasn't a problem previously - my link was to the raw Guide ML, not the page featuring said pictures and sounds - it probably is currently unacceptable.

I'll probably remove my link to it.

Incidently, the Aussie Birdlife article was posted by Bruce, h2g2's head unofficial technical guru, who, I suspect, would be up with the play.


Key: Complain about this post
