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

Hey, Crescent, how's it hangin'? I'd like to know, are only entries written in GuideML eligable to be approved, or can plain text entries be approved as well? Get back to me soon, as I'm planning a submission spree. Thank you, BYE!!

Sorry it has taken so long to get back to you - I was researching my next entry - Buichaille Etive Mhor To answer your question, no submitted entries do not need to be written in GuideML. However you lose a lot of control on what the Approved Article will look like. Also, maybe - I am not sure about this - if a sub is feeling stroppy, and there is no GuideML AND errors it is more likly to get sent back, than if even the basics of GuideML are in.

GuideML is easy to use - at the start of a paragraph use , at the end the end of it .
For a header at the start of the header use and at the end of the header use
for a subheader it is and

there are the basics, and almost all entries have no more than these tags in them It will also allow the sub ed to get a better idea of how you want the page to look If you need anything else - just ask Until later.....

By errors do you mean grammatical errors, or factual errors,(because I've found both in approved entries)?

By errors I mean anything the sub notices wrong with the Article - tho' I have never heard of a sub dropping an Article cause of bad spelling or grammer, or lack of GuideML. The subs also try to find factual errors and correct them, tho' if the whole of the Article was chockablock with errors I would, maybe (depending on how much I knew on the subject), drop it - but as you check out the facts you normally start to learn about the subject - the hardest ones are places, where you have no way of verification. Sorry, rambling here - so which Articles have the errors? Have you told TPTB? Until later......
