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

You might like to add my article on Richard Strauss to the dictionary.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A529625

It has been recommended, so it will become an edited entry eventually.

Yes, indeedy!

You're becoming our most prolific writer, you know. It's a good thing you have your own thread.

Do drop again by if you have anything else to add.

You might like to add my article on Ludwig van Beethoven to the Directory:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A566408

It has been recommended for inclusion in the Edited Guide.

Jolly good. I've added the entry to our directory, and also added a temporary promotional link to the Guild's main page. I also noticed that there is a newer version of your entry on Richard Strauss going through Peer Review, so I changed to the newer entry number in our directory.

Thanks for letting me know!

The following article is in Peer Review at the moment. Please add it to your directory:

A430840 - Death, Suicide and Close Shaves in the World of Classical Music.

Thanks!

I've added the entry to our directory and the Guild's main page, Gnomon. There are so many great entries that I'm afraid yours is definitely sharing the stage.

I really enjoyed this entry. I knew a few of these before, but many were new to me. And those that I already knew were phrased so wonderfully that I enjoyed reading them anyway.

It's a great reminder that rock musicians don't have the death and suicide market for musicians cornered! Actually, a companion piece on rock musicians isn't a bad idea...

Fragilis, if you like my article on Death, Suicide etc, please go to the Peer Review entry and say so. The more people that like it, the more likely a scout is to pick it. The quickest way there is to click on my name to get to my Home Page, then just after my introduction there is a link that brings you straight to the Peer Review entry.

Here's another article:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A582806

This one is about French Horns. It is also in Peer Review and I would appreciate any comments.

I've added the French Horns article to the Guild's main page.

I'm sorry, but I don't have time to visit your Peer Review thread. I'm unable to keep up with all the activities of the Guild and its members these days. But I'm sure it will do just fine.

Thanks, Fragilis. I've no doubt you're busy. There seems to be a lot happening these days.

Here's an article on Orchestral Percussion, which is in Peer Review at the moment.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A587621

I've beat you to that one, Gnomon. It's already in the directory and on the Guild's main page.

Here are two articles which you might like to add to the directory. They are both quite technical and probably fit into the "Technical" section. I consider them to be too specialised to make good Edited Guide Entries, so they were never submit to Peer Review.

The Equal Temperament Scale

Woodwind Instruments - an Overview
http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A490439

I have tidied up Elly's article on "The Oboe" and put it through Peer Review. It is now almost an Edited Entry. As a result, the article number has changed. Please update the Directory to point to the new article number: A596036.

I've added your two entries to the directory and changed the link for the Oboe entry, Gnomon. Personally, I think you could submit your entries to Peer Review and do just fine. But you should know by now that I think highly of your work.

Here's a short article on Violas: http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A619472 It's in Peer Review at the moment. The link to the conversation is: http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/F48824?thread=136614

The violas article is now recommended and pending. The new number for it is:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A622450

Here are two more articles I've written:

Harps

http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A626186

Introduction to Orchestral Music

http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A634556

Both of these are recommended and will appear eventually as Edited Entries under different numbers.

My Orchestral Percussion and my Introduction to Orchestral Music entries are now Edited. Their new numbers are:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A616277 (Orchestral Percussion)
http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A640180 (Intro to Orchestral Music)

Here are three more entries I have written:

A668504 - The Musical Instrument Museum, Brussels, Belgium (Edited)
A709670 - Carmina Burana - Drink, Sex and Mediaeval Monks (Recommended)
A689024 - Peter Tchaikovsky - Composer (Recommended)

Hi Gnomon

As you may have noticed, the Guild is 'under new management'. I'm still busy going through all the bits and pieces and updating things, so thanks for posting here - it's a useful reminder. I'll get your links added to the directory as soon as I can!
