Hi there!
I think that this is a good idea for an Entry
, but I feel that it is lacking on many topics.
For example, what is the history of the wheelbarrow? When was it invented? For what reason? If this is going to be the definitive Entry in the Guide on Wheelbarrows then I think it's going to need a little more than what you have already got...
Therefore, I would suggest that this Entry is more suited for the Writing-Workshop in its current state so you can work on it a bit more...
Don't be annoyed! Remember, these are just my suggestions!

Hmmm, I dunno, how extensive can an article on Wheelbarrows be?
I do think it could be extended a little however. For example you might want to include a section on how to give someone a human Wheelbarrow - grasp them by an ankle in each hand as they lie face down and then hold up there legs as they walk around on their hands
Perhaps a little addition on when it was invented would be nice right enough. As to why, well it's a lever essentially, a device to lessen the effort of carrying things around...

Does it really take a total of 8 weeks to get moved to the Flea Market?

Yes, that's what the rules say. A researcher might be ill, on holidays, get stuck in RL w*rk, etc.
Two Scouts together can have a tread moved at any time, but such a decision is always a tricky balance between having a messy PR forum and frustrating a researcher.

Hmmm... doesn't look like the author's been around since November 19th or so, and that was just a short entry in their journal. 
Motion to move to FM.
