The H2G2 Editors Started conversation Feb 25, 2002
We're delighted to announce a new addition to the h2g2 team. Jim Sangster, or Jimster (U292) as he's known on site, will be working alongside the whole h2g2 team, subbing entries and helping to ensure that the Guide maintains the highest editorial standards.
Welcome to the team, Jimster!

Welcome Jimster!!
I'm sure that we'll all try to be gentle with you 
BTW - on your page you say that you were "lurking in another form since about '99" - are you going to tell us under which guise???

Cheers for the welcomes (*blush*). I signed up as a researcher back in '99, but only wrote one entry (it's the one on Picadilly Circus) because my job suddenly got insane and left less time for me to hang out on internet communities.

Of course, back then, they didn't have such luxuries as "Peer Review", so it took rather a long time for my one entry to be accepted. Tell that the the kids today and they wouldn't believe you...

With any luck I'll be able to get stuck in soon and submit my first piece of obscure research for your approval... eep!
