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

Here's my entry about the Great Pyramid again. It got accidentally moved out of Peer Review due to a mix-up about University Projects, but I'm putting it back in again. The original Peer Review thread is attached to the article as a conversation.

One other complication of this entry is that there is already a very inferior similar entry called "The Pyramids" by the original writing team, which I am asking to have renamed "Numerical Properties of the Pyramids".

Any comments anyone, or any passing scout care to pick?

Also note that this entry has now been in Peer Review for three weeks.

Hmmm your article looks comprehensive enough to me. Seems you got most of the feedback in the original thread already. There's not much more I can think of, so for what I'm concerned: recommend this thing right away!

What's with the University project then? Has it been cancelled?

Titania suggested a Uni Project. Somebody responded by taking my article out of Peer Review while I was away on holidays without asking me. Now Titania has changed her mind about the Uni Project. So I'm back here.

Good thing, it has been PR'ed already, so I would expect that it won't stay here very long now anymore.

Ummm, what about the other entries then, are they coming back too?

I think I already said this was great BTW

I can't remember if I said so in the previous thread, but I thought this was excellent too.

I've had to make a very slight change to this article. Further research revealed that the limestone blocks used to completely fill the internal passages when the pyramid was sealed were just a myth. I've rewritten the section "Sealing the Pyramid" accordingly.

It's ready to be picked.

Editorial Note: This conversation has been moved from 'Peer Review' to 'The Great Pyramid, Giza, Egypt'.

This thread has been moved out of the Peer Review Forum because your entry has now been recommended for the Edited Guide.

Congratulations!

Thank you.

Wow, that was quick, I only pushed the recommend button a few minutes ago.

You are welcome Gnomone - I'm sure I don't need to explain the subbing process to you.

Watch out, Greebo's about!

Thankyou

Congratulations, Gnomon!

Hi Gnomon, I'm GTBacchus, and I've just received your entry to Sub! It looks pretty darn good (nice pick, Orcus ) and I don't think it'll take me long to get it sent to the Towers, where it will sit in the Front Page queue until the stars in Orion's Belt align just so...

Anyway, here's the new URL:

Feel free to drop by and see how it's going. If you have any questions or requests, now is a great time to let me know. Likewise, if I have any questions for you, I'll just post them here.

Actually, I've got one now. Regarding the link to the Seven Wonders entry... Is that thing still in some dropped-out-of-Uni limbo? As you know, we can't link to it if it's not edited, but if it's at least on a Subbie's desk, then I can go ahead and include the link because the A# will be correct at that point. Has the Seven Wonders entry be resubmitted to Peer Review? I couldn't find it. Are any scouts listening and likely to pick that one up within the next couple of weeks?

Anyway, it's no problem really. Unless I hear something to the contrary, I'll take the link out for now, and whenever 7wonders gets recc'd, Jimi or Mikey or whoever can go back and add links.

So... congratulations Thanks for the entry, and I'm sure I'll see ya 'round!

I don't think anything has been done with the Seven Wonders entry, so take the link out for now. I'll let you know if I find anything different. As you say, it can always go to Update Headquarters to get the link put in later.

Well, there. It's sent in to the Towers. If anything new comes up that needs doing before it gets to the Front Page, just let me know and I'll pass word along right quick, like a bunny.

'Til then, congratulations!
