Hi Crescent! As you can probably tell from my journal entries, I joined h2g2 just as my life took a rocky turn, but I plan to be more pithy and witty in the coming weeks!
The main question I have at the moment is that I'm a little confused on how a Guide entry becomes an Edited Guide Entry. I've heard that there's some kind of "voting procedure" - what's up with that?

Sorry it has taken so long to get back to you, but the weekend and all OK a Guide Entry now has to go through Peer Review to become an Edited Guide Entry. What happens is that you go to the Peer Review page, make a new conversation with the Axxxxxx number of your Entry, and the title in the subject. Then put a link to the page in the body, and why you reckon it should be become Edited. Anybody passing by then goes and has a wee look, if they want, and comments on it. If the comments are good, or have good suggestions, and you update the Entry, eventually a Scout will come along. The Scout sees that it is a cracker of an Entry and puts it forward to TPTB. TPTB then say yay or nay, and it is passed to the SubEds, or rejected I hope this gives some idea of what happens If it is too vague or rambley, just yell, and I will try and clear it up Well, until later....

WOW! That's an involved process, but considering the quality of the Edited Entries, I can see why! Thank you for clearing that up, Crescent, and I hope you had a good weekend!
