How do I add a researcher to my guide entry so either of us can edit it? Is it possible? If you just add researcher it says they wrote the article and that you editted it...help???

I'm afraid that with current h2g2 technology it's only possible for one person to edit an article. The common method to get round this is to create a third account, to which the first two people both know the password, and to create the page as this account. HTH

Unfortunately at the moment it isn't possible for two people to edit the same entry from different accounts. The usual methods to get round this problem at this moment in time is to have two copies of the entry where both users can edit and up to date their copy when the other has made alterations to theirs. The other option is to set up another user account and let both users have the username and password for it.
