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

Just a note to Welcome you to the ranks of the ACEs

When I started I found <./>A573833</.> So you Want to be a good Ace - to be a really good place to start as it sets out the "conventions" that we use.

I have made a "Hints and Links for New Researchers" page at <./>A719840</.> you are more than welcome to use it at any time for your Welcomes if you find that it’s useful.

BTW - I noticed your Welcome to Leannne at SoP - there are separate Welcomes for the associated sites - you'll find them at <./>A726419</.>


If I can help in any way just drop me a line

Hi! Thanks for the greeting and tips! I actually do have a question. Whats up with this seperate sites thing? Aren't we all just on h2g2? I am terrribly confused, though I have been around h2g2 forever, this is the first time I have incountered 'seperate sites'. What are they? What is their purpose in life? Where do they eat lunch?

They aren't separate sites - they all run off the DNA system - they are sort of like "second cousins"

360 is called "Changing The World By Degrees" - environmentally based, very interesting, something Douglas would approve of highly. You can read all about it by putting 360 into the search window.

Sense of Place (SoP) are regional UK sites (London, Devon, Lancashire etc) which, I believe are allied with local radio stations. You can get to them from <./>A735725</.>

You'll realise which site new researchers are from when you go to leave them a Welcome - the skins are quite different - and then you can use the Welcomes which I've referred to above.

Does this make things clearer???

Yes that is much better thanks! It is weird that I could have been here so long and cought no whisper of them though. Oh well. Thank youuuu Feisor! Oh, and also do you know how to make pull down lists of ACEs ect.?


Athena

Serpently!!! Easy!!

If you go to <./>GuideML-VOLUNTEER-LIST</.> at the bottom of the page is the coding - just copy and paste

Ohhhh exciting!

You are easily excited aren't you??

Let me know if you need any help

Little things make me happy. Thanks for all your help, I'll let you know if I have any more issues, but I think I am good now.
