I don't know if any of you have heard of Wikipedia.com. For those of you that haven't, Wikipedia is an open-source encyclopedia (meaning people can change and edit articles to allow the encyclopedia to never get out of date). I've created an artcle there for BHH entitled 'Strange Days at Blake Holsey High' - you can reach it at this link: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strange_Days_at_Blake_Holsey_HighIf you feel like you have anything to add and know how to work the Wikipedia interface, please feel free to do so. Just thought I'd let you all know.

cool! I didn't know you could do that with Wikipedia.com. I thought it was just another encyclopedia website. How to they control the inaccurate contributions (I get some from time to time with tvtome contributions).
Clever AmethystAngel.
If anyone copies tvtome..... *shakes fist*

Well, since it's open-source, there are a LOT of people on the site besides the main moderators. Open-source allows other people to correct the incorrect information, and also the team of moderators - who are located around the world - are always around to ban people from working on it. It's really useful, and really good.
I've also done articles for the LP/Z Collision Course, and the LeVeL 27 clothing line. Just today, I entirely re-did the RFR article. It's kinda fun, I think.

Well, that's the first time I've visited that site, and I've just gotten two messages telling me not to post annoying entries or deleting things from existing guides. They've threatened to ban me the second I got there...

How groovy I must say it's nice to see a new and original, not copied, description of the show - it seems that everybody else just copy/pastes an official or TV Tome blurb (*hands MirrorCard stress ball to ground the rage*). Nice and consise too. Sorry, i just had to pick this out: Quite blatantly, Marshall is Lucas's other half. The yin to his yang. The Samwise to his Frodo. yes, yes I will shut up now ;D And thankyou very much for the link!

I know I've added things and came up as about fifty different IP addresses - it's a problem that a LOT of users have. Quite blatantly, Marshall is Lucas's other half. The yin to his yang. The Samwise to his Frodo. yes, yes I will shut up now ;D I have a policy, unfortunately - I don't discuss shippage in the entries I do. But you have no idea how much I wanted to say something about M/L there. **fixed quote. Unfortunately, you have to have the entire post target copied, not just a screenname. - MirrorCard**

I don't know how I missed this, but it's a good idea. And a non-stolen way of doing it to boot.
