Hi Frag,

perhaps you might want to cover the current discussion on updating entries in one of the next Views? See http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/F66119, as well as Jimi X's Update Headquarter at http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A496451...

With the Guide getting more comprehensive every day and the oldest Guide entries being two years old, it gets more important to do corrections/adding new facts/updating links in existing entries. Seems to be that Mark is considering a new volunteer scheme for this task.

Perhaps this would be interesting.

Thanks very much for the tip, ShrEck. I 've mentioned Jimi X's Update Headquarters before, but I wasn't aware that a whole new volunteer scheme was being considered. That's good news to me! I think it would be fabulous to have a team dedicated to updating older entries.

I will include a bit about this in the next article. Again, thanks for the information. smiley - smiley
