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

Entry: Algol - the Demon Star - A738092
Author: Gnomon - Summer Time - U151503

Another star entry.

Another exciting entry – you've definitely put the accelerator down on article-writing at the moment. I would ask about this sentence - 'The figures are mainly taken from the Some other facts about the system:' – were you about to mention the SolStation.com website again?

Hi Gnomon, thanks for writing this fabulous article about a star truly deserving its own Guide Entry! It says "This entry is nearly ready. I just need to check the "Future of Algol" section and draw a new diagram." at the beginning of your article, have you done these? The diagram is the same on the Perseus entry, I'm not sure why you need a new one and PR is for finished articles



I can't find any nit-picks but here's an extra h2g2 link: A44762097 - The Crab Nebula

As usual, I'm so excited to put it into Peer Review that I forget to do a last minute check. In this case, I forget the comment to myself at the top, and the bit where I moved the comment about SolStation, but messed up the cut and paste.

I've fixed both those now.

This has a new diagram - it's the one I link to, showing the double star's rotation. Took me about an hour to make, so I hope it is acceptable.

ahthe note-to-self threw me, I thought you were making a new Perseus diagram showing Algol.

I couldn't load your link, it takes me to flickr main page and is asking me to sign up, but I already have a flickr account but can't remember my login/password

I'll keep trying, it could just be my settings.

Flickr has got a bit temperamental recently. They keep changing it to make it cool, and things that worked stop working. I'll look into it.

This looks like an excellent entry to me.

I can load the diagram now it's very informative, thanks for making it
