Such a terrible shame that the guide to this point has not had an entry on pocket fluff. Unforgivable, really.

I agree with you, the EG could have an entry on pocket fluff, but I would advise having a read of the <./>writing-guidelines</.>
Perhaps you could mention the way sweets always get covered in it, how different fabrics produce more fluff than others, or even how bits of tissue can contribute to the problem!
If what you want is a comical, surreal entry on pocket fluff then the spaced out guide A1001278 might be the place for it

I broke the very first rule, didn't I. I should know better, my apologies.
Never mind. 'twas all a bad idea. Pocket fluff is not a serious topic.

Oh it wasn't a bad idea at all! Afterall - there is an entry on Belly Button Fluff at A795576 ! So guide entries don't need to be on world events or places 
But you would need to look into the 'fluff issue' a bit more!
Otherwise the Spaced out Guide is a great place for that kind of entry.
So don't give up or be put off
As it stands, your entry is available via the <./>search</.> engine as an unedited entry for anyone looking up pocket fluff

The Edited Guide doesn't have to be serious. But it does have to be factual. It should be possible to write an amusing entry on Pocket Fluff which is factual and informative while still being fluff.

You should give a mention that pocket fluff should be carefully removed from the coins before giving exact change at the market.

I would very much like to see an entry on Pocket Fluff in the EG, so don't get discouraged The Writing-Guidelines are the key though!
Good luck!

What else I hate about pocket fluff...
Is when you take a tissue out of your pocket and a big ball of fluff drops to the ground! How embarassing!!!
Or you have a bit of paper in your pocket with a telephone number or address on it to give to someone and you have to pick off the pocket fluff before handing it over and the person is horrified by it!!
Even worse is that in both scenarios you don't even notice that blue (cos it always is blue same as belly button fluff 
) fluff is there! And you wonder why your friend is looking disgusted!!!
I see this entry has a big future

I'm still interested, but I have to rethink it. This would have fit the EG of four years ago, but things have changed. I'm having trouble thinking of how to discuss pocket fluff seriously, so it will take me a while. In the meantime I'm focusing on an entry on sourdough.

Can you remove this from PR then, if you're not planning on working on it for a while?
