TRiG (Ireland) A dog, so bade in office Started conversation Jun 19, 2006
I was having a <./>browse</.> through the <./>NamedEntries</.> and it occurred to me that the <./>curators</.> are the only volunteer group who don't exist in the singular. Is there a reason for that? In fact, they aren't mentioned on the page in either singular or plural form, so it ought to be updated. <./>NamedEntries</.> does, after all, purport to be a comprehensive list.

There is only one thing worse than being Gosho, and that is not being Gosho Posted Jun 19, 2006
Well you see, just like the NSA, we don't exist.
Officially.
Or at all. Anyone who says we do is a liar. And will mysteriously disappear within three days, never to be seen again. I have no idea how or why.
I've said too much already. I must go now.
You en't seen me, roight?

The H2G2 Editors Posted Jun 19, 2006
Hello there,
There are a couple of reasons for this - firstly, we'd still like all editorial feedback to come through...<./>Feedback-Editorial</.> and by putting the group in the Help Structure we'd encourage users to post in there instead.
Also, Curators are recruited on the recommendation of other Curators, not as part of 'recruitment drives'. We don't want to encourage people to apply in this way, and so we don't promote the Named Article.
(Though Go...BH is right too...)
Thanks!
The Editors

Traveller in Time trying to explain a newbee
"Would go something like this:
'Any correction after an entry has been Edited has to be done by the Site Editors or by one of the Curators.
The Curators are only volunteers who are asked to join this group.
The official curators are official not a volunteer group.
Most other Researchers are unknown of who are member of this group and we even have a <?> Fanthom Curator.'
And some say they do not understand me for talking gibberish ."
