Hello, I'm RhoMuNuQ!

Welcome to h2g2 and thanks for joining!

By the way, have you considered writing a little bit about Germany?

As you've recently joined h2g2, you might want to take a look at the <./>DontPanic</.> Help Centre or A719840 that give hints about how to use h2g2!

If you have any questions at all, please feel free to ask me! Just press the Reply button at the bottom of this message.

Finally, if you want to see the page that another user wrote about themself, just click their name at the top of any of their postings!

I hope that helps! ... (Cake is one of the main currency units on h2g2 )

Hi there,

Thanks for the welcome message. I may do a few pieces on Germany. I am already working on a German beer article.

I was wanting to ask, do posts go staight online or do they get vetted first. It's just that i have posted two articles today. one titled Djembe and the other Buckfast and neither are coming up when i do a search for those words.

how long is it before posts should be available to view?

Hi again! No problem!

The pages are up on h2g2 just now and can be viewed, but it'll probably be a couple of days before you can find them by doing a search -- I'd allow about a week before getting too worried!

By the way, I thought those were excellent articles!

I hope that helps!

Hi again,

I found there is already an article on the beer subject i was going to do so have dried up a bit. This gave me an idea, and i wanted to know if you agree or if it already exists.

It would be great if there was a list somewhere of subjects not yet covered. So that every time someone tries to look something up and can't find it or thinks of a good subject but doesn't know enough about it, they can add it to the list. In turn, researches with writers block can look at the list for subjects they feel they could write on.

What do you think?

Hi!

I saw you posted to Don't Panic and it looks like Mina beat me to a reply! F28171?thread=229433#p2694197

hi again, thanks for all your help so far, i've been trying to get my head round GuideML and have started updating a few of my entries .

was wondering if it is possible to upload your own pictures to the site for use in articles. i only seem to be able to find info on using pictures already on the site. can you help?

Hi again!

I'm afraid you can't put your own pictures onto h2g2 or link to pictures from sites other than h2g2. It used to be allowed, but isn't any more!

RhoMuNuQ

gosh darn it! so who decides what images will be put up? and is it possible to submit stuff to them for consideration?

The pictures on h2g2 were created specifically for h2g2, and so aren't submitted then considered. Unfortunately, as far as I know, there isn't anyway to submit pictures to them for consideration.

There are lots of pictures you can use, though, listed at C809
