Hi Unc,
thank you for welcoming me. I am from Italy, and I am studying International Relations and Human Rights at university.
I am pretty new to h2g2, as a memeber, so your infomation are very useful to me. I apologise in advance for my not perfect English, I hope you can understand me, hehe.
I'll be reading all the guidelines you've recommended to me, and I hope I'll be able to contribute to the guide soon. At least, I'll try my best. Do yo have any ideas about an interesting topic to write about?
By the way, any corrections and suggestions about my English are more than welcomed, all in all I am here even to learn.
Thank you very much for your kindness and support. I hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely,
worldbeat.

Indeed..... Information is uncountable and I have just said 'information are'..... Is there a way of editing my own entries even after publishing them?
Let me know and thank you.
Worldbeat.

Pleased you found the information useful

Firstly, there are many researchers on site whose native language is not English and their English is generally better than a lot of people whose native language is English. Don't worry about mistakes on threads like this, everyone makes them and they just get overlooked. You can't edit postings you've made, just entries such as your space and any articles you've written.

Secondly, if you need ideas on what to write an entry on then I suggest you have a look at <./>Challangeh2g2</.> , where researchers suggest entries that they'd like to see in the Edited Guide.

If you wish to improve your English I suggest 'The Language Thing' at A1145477.

Hi Unc,
as always you've been precious. Thanks very much for the information you've provided to me.
At the moment the page about the ideas for new entries seems not to be working.
I'll check it out later.
Thank you again, hope to hear from you very soon.
