Gosh only on h2g2 is this an innocent introduction!
I'm Z! and I've just been made a Sub Ed, (how? I'll never know) but I'm very excited to have recieved your entry on Conan the Barbarian to sub.
You can find the edited version of the entry here A918443, and I'll let you know before it goes back to the ed's to check that I've not butchered it too badly!

I've just put Guide ML in so far and spell checked it, but I will soon (this evening if I can wake up, I've had a heavy day) if you do disagree with any of my changes do let me know..

Hi
I've just been going through it with a fine tooth comb and I've got a couple of questions for you..
In the last paragraph of the introduction section, you've put
"Conan the Barbarian stands to this day as one of the most influential and often immitated fantasy films ever made in the west.
There are quotation marks at the begining but not at the end, and it looks like a quote, but is it a quote from anyone, and if so who, so I can put that in a footnote.
Where you've put..
"which they learn operates under a symbol identical to the one that the Cimmerian has been seeking"
You haven't mentioned who or what the Cimmerian are.
Are Thusla Doom the owners of the temple of snake worshippers?
Ta for you're help..
Hi from you're Sub.

The quote is not a quote. When writing I can't get the hang of GuideML and thus use "quote marks" to denote the title of a book or film.
The Cimmerians are Conan's people. I thought I mentioned that in his character summary?
"Thulsa Doom" is one person and is the High Priest and leader of the snake cult. So yes, he does own the temple in question.
