h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Here is the thing I said I would write about plagiarism for the Subs' Report:

I'll alter a bit here and there - and there's a para to add, but great work overall - everything that you've done is fine, but I'll probably have to both trim bits and add bits - such is the in these times...

Whoami?

Let me know what alterations you intend, and I'll decide whether
I still care to contribute it.

I'm impressed, it covers most of the sections concerning the topic. I agree with Whoami that it would need a couple of paragraphs just to round and flesh out the article.

Well done JTG

Thanks

I'm thinking about what Peta said to me. At first, she urged me not to include the intended piece on plagiarism in case it got a bit inflammatory, but what you've written'll be fine - I want to add a bit about unwitting plagiarism, ie what happened at the weekend sans specific references, and reword a couple of sentences for the purposes of layout. I might also tone down parts of your opening few paras and put in some of the material quoted as your opinion - not only does it get you mentioned again in the article, but it looks more investigative. All of the above are of course, only if you'll let me. I will, of course be careful not to alter meanings, etc.(trust me - I'm a Sub-Editor ) Remember, you're experienced to levels I can barely understand, so you are respected...

Whoami?

Kind of you to say so... I have the advantage merely of having started sooner... because I'm older, greyer, slower...

Make whatever changes you feel are necessary.

People don't go grey using h2g2 - it's not been around long enough. They get *experienced* on h2g2. Ta - I'll do that tonight, then.

Whoami?
