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

Hi Martifartfast, Welcome to h2g2

I'm Emmily one of the many <./>ACEs</.> (Assistant Community Editors) We’re a bunch of volunteers who enjoy h2g2 enough to want to help new Researchers find their way around what is a large web site, by offering a warm welcome, links and advice.

Have a or & or & put you feet up, relax and let your fingers do the walking

If you’d like to know what h2g2 is you can read ~ ‘All about h2g2’ A308170 You may also like to read ‘A Welcome and Thank-You Message From Douglas Adams’ A157349 the creator and founder of h2g2.

I survived PeerReview and got my Entries in to the Edited Guide If I can, you can too. Though you’ll need to read EditedGuide-Guidelines first.

You can find out about my Entries at Emmily’s Edited Entries - A3809810

You may like to read a <./>RandomEditedEntry</.> Some of the older Edited Entries are not good examples of the type of Entries that are accepted for the Edited Guide nowadays. You can read the most recent ones which are on the <./>FrontPage</.> every weekday.

Although, if you’re interested in fiction and poetry you may like to visit Writing-Alternative

You can click on A3133702 ‘Emmily’s h2g2 Driving Lesson’ where you can pick and choose at your leisure what you’d like to find out about.

We also have our own weekly newspaper <./>ThePost</.> something else to read

If you want to find out about GuideML and how customise your Space, using coloured text, pictures etc. Spicing Up Your User Page A690518 or Buffy's Guide ML Help Page A2669051 have some good advice.

Before I go, here are a few easy to get involved in pages you may like to visit.

I see you've already found 'Ask' The natives are mostly friendly, but can get a little annoyed at lots of questions in 'Ask' that should really be in MiscChat, please take a little time to find out about the type of question suitable for each forum. For example 'What's Your Favourite --- ?' should really be in MiscChat.

<./>Askh2g2</.> ~ the place to ask questions, voice opinions and request help with research.

<./>HowDoI?</.> ~ find a different kind of answer with 'How Do I?'

<./>MiscChat</.> ~ the place for random chatting.

<./>GamesRoom</.> ~ set word games, set teasers or discuss the wider issues of gaming.

I'm a real person not an automated computer programme, to find out about me click on my name above this conversation post you can do that on anyone’s name in any conversation thread.

Oh and, if you’re having some technical problems with the site; ie error pages showing, you can find the culprit here A710092

Hope you find these helpful & you enjoy yourself here to reply to this post If you have any questions or if you just want to say 'hi' click 'Reply' below.
