This is a fairly thorough and friendly article on Santa Fe, New Mexico, where I live. It is a combination encyclopedia entry/travel article, because that seemed appropriate for h2g2.
I sent it to writing workshop, and Sam suggested I might lose some of the links. What do you guys think? Which ones should go? I like them all. Also, should the outside links be in popup windows or not?
Anyway, enjoy!

I don't want to disagree with Sam.
But I think this entry is fantastic, for a first effort.
What does anyone else think?
GTBacchus!
This may take a while, for the article to be recommended then submitted.
I suggest you forget about this one, and start working on your next.
The time will seem to pass much quicker.

p.s. I have an entry awaiting comment

Personally, I think the more links, the better.
Excellent entry. I particularly liked the commentary about streets. I thought it was just Massachusetts which was like that.

Great entry! I hope it will be in the Edited Guide soon - seems like it needs no editing at all.

I've tweaked a couple of paragraphs and added a couple of 's in the Food/Lodging section for improved readability. And, oh!, what's this? I seem to have moved this thread to the top of Peer Review!

Ok, Scouts and Subbies, I've been working on this. I finally read the page about how to write good guide entries, and realized I should change some stuff. I cleaned up the GuideML and audited the links. A couple of links were sketchy, so I removed or changed them, and only added one or two. Then I went over the copy with a fine toothed comb and gave it a good polish (mixed metaphor! ). Now it looks better, I think. Time for me to get working on a completely different entry!
