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

A few things I spotted:

<> --> 'Architects had clamoured for years to redesign and plan a more elegant London.'

<> --> 'Robert Hubert, a French silversmith and watchmaker, confessed to starting the fire.'

Good job overall! I'm quite impressed.

All the changes done!

Hi Mina, good job on the collaborative entry

I think the sentence 'He could not describe the bakery, or where it was but was sentenced to hang at Tyburn anyway.' requires an extra comma after 'where it was' ie:

'He could not describe the bakery, or where it was, but was sentenced to hang at Tyburn anyway.'

Apart from that, I didn't spot any typos and can't think of any omissions right now. It might be nice to mention the entry about the fire in the Diary of John Evelyn, as it makes a nice complement to the superior Pepys: http://www.geocities.com/Paris/LeftBank/1914/ed_1666.html#fire (Perhaps you could either link to this website, so interested researchers can read more). I'm a big fan of the use of the tag in historical entries to incorporate a bit of (copyright-free, of course!) primary source material.

Great job!

Thank you!

I've added that comma, and added the link.

Any other comments? If not I'll consider this entry finished.

Oh, and as it's a Topic of the Week I've included a couple of PR contributors in the list of Researchers on this one.

Bingo!

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!

Yes!

Woohoo! Thank you.

Well done Mina!

You're welcome!

Well done Mina!
