Baryonic Being - save GuideML out of a word-processor: A7720562 Started conversation May 19, 2005
I'm trying to contribute more to h2g2 after having spent many months in a state of limbo. Rewriting my personal space, I think, should help. When I think about how much I posted when I first joined, nearly 2 years ago, I feel I'm losing out on a whole raft of enjoyment. 'Reality', as usual, spoilt everything.
And yes, I confess: I have been tinkering and toying over at - dare I say it - Wikipedia. But I've come to terms with the whole situation: the two are very different approaches to creating an online encyclopedia; and I will certainly be thinking about writing a new h2g2 entry soon. I wonder how many others do what I do: I write all my ideas for feasible Guide Entries in a list on my PDA. My main problem will be choosing the best!
Call it heresy, but here's my Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Baryonic_Being
I've been trying to add links from Wikipedia articles back to h2g2, by the way, if that's any consolation. See, for example, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohio.
If any of you are even *remotely* interested in other things I've had time to get up to, I have a number of new online projects available at my website, http://www.corfizz.com , including a game of Name That Constellation and a system that adds new tags to HTML to make it easier to find the facts you need to write about.

I regularly the "recent deaths" and ensure there's a link posted to the BBC news website. If there's a h2g2 entry I'll link to that in wiki entries.
