The H2G2 editors suggest having fellow researchers read your article before you submit it for rejection. Anyone have an idea of how to do this? I don't know how anyone would stumble across what I've written.

If you read mine... I'll read yours? I know what you mean though. User pages seem rather well tucked out of the way, and hidden from the seach unless you ask for em...

How about we use this conversation as a register of people who want to be reviewed?
If we review others then they might review us. Feedback should probably be against the user pages so that this coversation does not get unworkable.
Put a reference to one of your user pages here and see what happens.
I would appreciate feedback on my Aldershot entry:

you got that right!!!!!!! how do you get an article submitted if few can find your pages ?
I am in full agreement with the idea of reviewing user pages before trying to submit an article but reading the submissions page doesn't tell you how to send an article in.
My own entry would like to explore sweets and chocolates through history and cultures. entitled 'granny sookers' you can review my entry in the user pages. second forum discussion is 'sweets and chocolates'.

Good idea. I've already submitted the snippets I've already written but any new ones I'll stick a little note in here. (Although, this morning I see that two of them have actually got some comments... so I guess as people get used to finding their way around the system they are bumping into things of mine!)

Forgot to put my address on the last reply, and I didn`t tell you the subject - well I'm looking for further suggestions for a possible Appendix to h2g2 on "WHAT NOT TO ASK A DROID"
And yes, I did spell criticism wrong on my other forum entry.

Before I write something really stomach churning, please have a gander at my user page A68690

That was just a cunning ploy to get people to look at your page . I saw through that! Don't let anyone stop you writing something really stomach churning!

Anyone fancy a gander at my articles on DROSS POTS (P76204) and THE SOCK MONSTER (P76222) - I'd appreciate any reviews.

I've added a new User Page on "DISC JOCKEYS" - anyone care to check it out for me?

Ok, you win. I'll take a look at your disc jockeys. By the way, today my household received a visit from the SOCK MONSTER, and now I have one black sock all by its lonesome. I wonder if there are several monsters, or if there is just one that can swim the Atlantic?

Frink, thanks for the feed-back, I'm going to have a butchers at your home page right now - well almost right now, after I've told you about my new ditty on Boot Fairs which is on page P81767. Now I'm really going - right now.
