You can wait until Monday or tues day to answer this. I'm in no hurrysmiley - zen. Mina answered with a non-answer.
She thought this matter had died months ago.
I gave her the adress
F55683?thread=158737&skip=175&show=20
which indicates otherwize.
What's your take on the whole situation.
I patiently await your replysmiley - zen

Hi Shagbark,

To answer your questions - firstly the named entry. The Post is the only Community activity to have a named entry, the rest of the named entries are all official pages. This priviledge was extended to the Post after it had been going for sometime (about a year I seem to remember) and showed that it was a success. If h2g2 Extra becomes a regular and popular Community activity then we would consider giving it a named entry. However, we couldn't just give it a named entry without having seen that it had a successful track record.

Will I be writing an article? I have said previously to the Editor, I would love to write an article. But I haven't been asked to write one and I don't know when the article is needed. I cannot speak for the other members of the team. Of course this all depends on what I have to do in the way of work, but if any one were to approach me, the answer would be yes.

Perhaps I will write one on moving house, which is what I was doing yesterday.

whatever that editor is doing it is apparently being done behind closed doors.
He doesn't even seem to have a working e-mail address. Since my question is answered I guess I will unsubscribe to this thread.
smiley - cheers *unsubscribes smiley - tea

Anyone? Any questions?smiley - tongueout

OK, here goes... why is the sky blue?

*looks out of office window*

Eh - I think I'll change that...

Why is the sky grey?

No, wait - that's too easy - the answere'd be 'because it's cloudy' - wouldn't it...

Hmmmm...

Oh well, I guess the answer to your question is 'No' Abi!smiley - silly

Ahem - so what am I doing here? Bored stiff at w*rk closing the books for October, obviously

<./>AggGag</.> and <./>AggGag-Archives</.> are a couple of exceptions (I'm assuming the only ones). Of course, we didn't get an auto-updating name like <./>thepost</.> gets.

The bottom? smiley - huh
