Viewing entry bug

Hi, please help me with this because as far as I can see it isn't mentioned in the FAQs.

Sometimes, when I view an entry, it will have a GuideML script rather than actually being presented IN GuideML. From the entry titles, I'm pretty sure that this isn't supposed to be happening (i.e. they aren't scripts that are supposed to be displayed).
What's going on?

It's possible/probable that the Entries in question were set to HTML type prior to the BBC taking over h2g2 - when that happened the pages were converted automatically to Plain text type. Maybe the researchers haven't got around to converting them yet.

If you can supply a url for a page like this I should be able to find out definitely for you.

OK, next time I find one (should have noted the URLs down, really) I'll post one here. Also, shall I let the relevant researchers know too?

Yep, it'd probably be handy if you let the owner know tosmiley - doctor
