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

Welcome to h2g2! I'm one of the Assistant Community Editors, so if you need any advice on anything h2g2 related, feel free to ask!

If you're looking for somewhere to go, you might want to try the welcome page for newcomers - http://www.h2g2.com/Welcome-Newcomers - or the Aces' homepage - http://www.h2g2.com/Aces - which has lots of interesting links. Also, if you click on the h2g2 logo in the top left corner, it will take you back to the front page, which gets updated daily with all the latest goodies.

While you're here, it would be great if you could contribute to the guide - try searching for some topics that interest you, and if there are no current entries on those topics, why not write one? If you're interested, have a look at http://www.h2g2.com/writing-guidelines for an idea of what we're looking for.

Have fun!

Hi
This is Zec.
I actually need some help.
How do I post entries to the peer review page?
Check out my article on the anatomy of fear and tell me what you think of it.
Hope to hear from you soon.

Peer Reveiw page?

In the meantime I managed to post my article on the page.
Anyway, go there and give me some criticism.
Its called The anatomy of fear

ok I'll criticise you in a sec

I can help you with the Peer Review page.
Let me just check I get it in the right order:
You write your Guide Entry, then "submit" and it is given an "A******" number: eg: http://www.h2g2.com/A******
Then you go to the Peer Review scheme {http://www.h2g2.com/PeerReview} and click on the "discuss" button on the left-hand side of the page.
Then in the Subject Box, type "Your Title" AND the A******", then in the text, just explain that you have written it, what it's about, and you welcome constructive critisism...it's a good idea to post a link to your Guide Entry too, so the people reading can go ~straight~ to your entry: er: in the TEXT type: http://www.h2g2.com/A****** {and a link will be displayed straight to your Entry}> Good Luck!! And well done...I hope to read it when you have submitted it to the Guide. If you get stuck, there is a link on the front page {http://www.h2g2.com/} with more information, or don't hesitate to ask one of the ACES or myself. That's what we are here for.

screw the peer review page, get out there and find some new and interesting people!!!! *runs away, tongue in cheek.*

*looks at cloughie dissaproveingly*

Sorry, I was a little drunk and out of hand. Scratch that last remark.

*scratched*

Hey! I managed to post the article!
http://www.h2g2.com/A453052
click the link or go to the peer review page and read the conversation!

Well done Zec!
Very proud of you!
Now for the worst part, waiting!

Look at the article in GuideML. I really like how it looks like now. I´m thinking of putting some pictures in. Oh, and have you checked out the discussions for the Keeper page?
Zec

Will do....{first request}
Going there now!!!
Sorry I was busy, I'm only just now answering my threads...

How come my name is not on the Keeper list?
Is this a mistake, or does it just take some time to get there?
Oh and by the way, how long do you think I´ll have to wait till my article is approved?
Zec

I am going to do that right now, Zec, I usually update the list straight away but the last two days I have been greeting newcomers.
I am sorry about the wait until your entry is approved, mine took about 8 weeks, the only thing I can suggest, once you have submitted, is keep going back, read the comments, see if you can improve on your Entry {it will keep its place in the queue}, then start working on another Guide Entry {so you forget the first one!}
Then you will get a nice surprise when your Entry has been accepted! {The editors will email you}

How many edited guide entries have you got?
What are the addresses? I´d like to read them.
Zec

Oh, and one other thing...
What is the difference between the NORMAL and EXPERT mode?
