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

I don't think there was a thimble involved in Sleeping Beauty. There was a spindle, but that's a different thing entirely.

Yeah, you're right. I just checked.

Hmm, better focus on what I'm supposedc to be doing, instead of hootooing!

Ok, ok I'll deal with all that later.

I come across some info. that a thimble was used in monopoly game, then when I looked at h2g2s Monopoly Entry, there was no mention of thimble, was there, or wasn't there. anyone know.

Gotto been hoggin PC too long.

for the display suggestion BigAl, (which I've added) it gave me the oppertunity to link to my first Edited Entry and link to chocolate Entry

I'll deal with Monopoly info and links soon. (so much for hoping to get away with having this as a small Entry.)

Gnomon, deal with you other points right now.

Emmily

Great Entry.

HELL

But... (What about that I-can-write-it-better parenthesis) after millenium celebration?

Emmily, if you want a small entry, then keep it small. You don't have to make every entry into the complete list of everything known about a subject, as this can make the entry boring and difficult to read. Certain other researchers take this approach to extremes - don't fall into that trap yourself.

I'm waiting for inspiration Hell :} I could only think of UK 'celebrations' such as jubilees, royal weddings, The Millennium Dome etc.

TGC I've found some interesting bits of history, so I'll include them.

Nice entry and for it was just the right amount of information.

I'd probably remove the link to the h2g2 calendar, but aside from that this is a real cracker.

Ok, removed the calendar, I didn't think I could use that.

Added some to it. Am I repeating similar info. under the heading 'Collecting Thimbles'?


Emmily

Ignore my above question, I've juggled it about and made two paragraphs out three.

Your Guide Entry has just been picked from Peer Review by one of our Scouts, and is now heading off into the Editorial Process, which ends with publication in the Edited Guide. We've therefore moved this Review Conversation out of Peer Review and to the entry itself.

If you'd like to know what happens now, check out the page on 'What Happens after your Entry has been Recommended?' at EditedGuide-Process. We hope this explains everything.

Thanks for contributing to the Edited Guide!

Well done Emm!

Congratulations
