Hi there smiley - ok

I can't see any reason why this shouldn't be here.

Its an entertaining piece, and you've certainly got my curiousity going saying that you have more entries like these. What sort of other entries do you have?

"I didnt realise before now that you could submit fiction"

Yes, perhaps we need to get our PR people to tell people that you can submit fiction here in the AWW. smiley - biggrin

I would submit any fiction (an non-Edited Guide material) that you want.

I'm a miner you see (I've stuck a little tag in my name), an my job is to look around and pick items for the UnderGuide (A1103329).

I'm not sure what copyright laws have to do with me picking stuff to do with Buffy the Vampire slayer, but that shouldn't stop you submitting it to the AWW. smiley - ok

ok great, thanx, would be nice to see if my entry makes the cut lol

as for the PR thing, when you go to submit review and it lists what to put where it only says to click on this one if your entry doesnt meet the requirments for peer review, so maybe you need to ask the editor of that page to make a little change and mention that it is for fiction.

This is thorough. smiley - bigeyes

I think it would be better to link all the entries together rather than post them seperately. Makes it easier to navigate between them.

Don't suppose you know of any site that has the lyrics for songs used in Buffy?

I could have a look around for you is that just normal buffy songs or Once More With Feeling songs? caus I'm gonna be doing a OMWF song page at some point.

Sorry, that was a touch vague. There are a few ways you could go about connecting them up. You could link each entry to every other entry if you wanted to, but that would probably be a bit overkilly. You could link them like chapters in a book, so that each page links to the previous and next pages. Or you could create a contents page, link to all the other pages from that and link back to the contents from each page...

I'm sure there are lots of other ways you could organise it. It's entirely up to you. You seem to know what you are doing with the guide ML.

We're researching the music in Buffy for an essay. We were going to do just OMWF, but we've expanded to all pop music in Buffy and we're thinking about covering Angel as well. Basic info on OMWF isn't a problem. We have the script book, the CD and we've just bought the season 6 DVD for the extras. Critical writing on it is still elusive though.

There are also plenty of places to find out names and artists for songs used in Buffy. It's the lyrics we really need to find. Any thoughts?

well I've had a look around for you but it looks like the only lyric on websites is the OMWF ones but I have found a couple of sites that got a tiny bit of info on each.

www.top50lyrics.com/b/buffy-lyrics-10504.html now this ones got a few non once more with feeling lyrics but I woulnt put to much hope in it because they havnt even got the song titles right lol

www.head2headweb.co.uk Now this ones got a little bit of info on a couple of the bands and a list of music, artists and episode but other than OMWF no lyrics

http://popex.com/artists/slayer/lyrics.html This ones got a few lyrics but no mention of which episode or which album theyre from

As you can see not a lot out there youre probably gonna have to end up doing it the long way round and searching each artist and each song unfortunatley.


As for my links they are all linked to my personal page is that what you mean or do I need to do an entiriley separate page to link them all to?

That's wonderful, entirely helpful. Thank you muchly.

About your pages, I was thinking more that you should link them to each other, with links at the bottom or top of the pages.

For instance, you could put:

Vampires

into the bottom of the slayer Handbook page to link it to the page on vampires.

Hope that's clearer.

I'm afraid its "How long is a piece of string?". Just keep on reminding us like this every now and then, and if someone has something to add or if it has been selected we'll let you know ASAP.

I'll have a look at it again, and see what I can do. smiley - ok
