Doctor Who

Hi Jedi Woman,

This is interesting information and I hope it is true. However, I do not think it is what Peer Review was meant for. A look at the Writing Guidlines will give you some information on what is required.

You might like to look at the Alternative Writing Workshop, which seems to be where this entry belongs. It might also make a good entry for your Journal. You can then point people in the right direction via Speakers Corner.


Best Wishes

This most certainly doesn't belong in Peer Review. It did make me smile (John Thompson as a cyberman??!!), but it's completely untrue.

hey jedi woman.

this entry doesn't belong in peer review, however, if u like doctor who then u might want to see the h2g2 doctor who group at A655256 . u could then join the discussions there and what u put in this entry u could put in a message which u could post on the doctor who group page. i'm sure this would inetrest them.

How do I remove it from the peer review?
Will you please tell me what ssubjects are suitable for Peer Review?
Thanks

Hiya!

To remove an entry from PR - go to the PeerReview page, and scroll down to the list of entries. Next to your entry, on the right hand side (if you are using Goo), there should be a link called 'Remove'. Click on this, and your entry should be removed from Peer Review

As for subjects - any subject! But they all have to adhere to the Writing-Guidelines, which is a *must read* for anyone who wants to pop an entry into PeerReview

Hope this helps!

Stay ,
WD

Jedi Woman,

About the only 'criteria' for subjects in the Edited Guide is that they are factual. I'm afraid the entry you've written is, at best, speculation. As such, it wouldn't be allowed in the Edited Guide. However, it is still *your* entry - you don't have to delete it!

Dr Who is a great subject though - there are already a few entries on it in the Guide. I'm sure you could come up with something to complement them though - a guide to the baddies, or the assistants, or something... But before embarking on a new project, please make sure there isn't already an Edited Entry on whatever your chosen subject is...

If you look at my previous postings you will realize I have asked for assistance to delete my posting on Doctor Who as I am have tried to delete it but I have failed. I am not on a compputer so I am unable to delete the posting on my own. I I am getting fed up of people asking me to do things when I say I am unable to do it (it is not want of trying) and keeping to explain why. I am sorry I am cross but I have asked for help. I will try again on my but the results will be the same. I need to have a link to do it. BTW my tv has not packed up since Wednesday and it is only since now I have been able to reply. If it is that important please will you supply a link for me to delete the entry as again I am a webtv user not a pc user.

Hi jedi woman.

You don't need to worry too much about removing your entry from peer reveiw. Some totally unsuitable stuff lingers for week, even months. But it would be good to remove it as soon as you've work out how. Now I want to make one thing clear; There is no need to delete the entry, but simply to remove it from peer reveiw. It will still be part of h2g2 and others will be able to read it. A search on Dr Who should still bring your entry up. I have no experience of webtv, so I don't know if this makes it harder to remove your entry from PR. Also I've never removed an entry myself before, so I'm not the best person to advise you. But rest assured, h2g2 is full of nice people, and one who knows more of these things will doubtless pop-up soon with the necessary info.

If you look at post 6 in this thread WD gave you this advise: To remove an entry from PR - go to the PeerReview page, and scroll down to the list of entries. Next to your entry, on the right hand side (if you are using Goo), there should be a link called 'Remove'. Click on this, and your entry should be removed from Peer Review.

If that doesn't work for your webtv connection, I'm afraid I can't help you,you'll have to wait for advice from others.

All the best SK

As Jedi Woman's struggling (and I can appreciate how frustrating this must be for her), I'll remove this for her now.

Apologies Jedi Woman. Hadn't realised you were having so much trouble.

Jimster

Tjank you for your help and assistance.
