My name is Feisor and I am an ACE (Assistant Community Editor) here at h2g2. It's my job to welcome you to the site and hopefully show you around a little. I AM a real person, not an automated reply not an automated reply not an automated reply  .
Welcome to h2g2 – not just the friendliest on-line community but an incredibly huge, living, breathing guide to Life, the Universe and Everything. It’s compiled by researchers just like you and it's something YOU can take part in. You can write entries on all manner of subjects, and if it's something you think would look good in our Edited Guide (where all the best research goes), you can submit it to Peer Review Take a look at the writing-guidelines for more information on that. 
I hope when you get to know us a little better you'll open your personal space and tell us a little about yourself - but there's no rush - and it's not compulsory
We ACEs are volunteers here to assist new researchers so if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.
You can leave a message on my space just by clicking on my name at the top of this message or by hitting the reply button below - it won't hit back (usually).
I have made a "Hints and Links for New Researchers" page at A719840 - if you go there it will lead you to all sorts of places which will help find your way around and get to know this wonderful place. It should keep you busy for a while 
Oh, and don’t forget to bookmark not only your space but the H2G2 FrontPage - it’s a great way to stay in touch with what’s happening and leads to all sorts of corners which you may otherwise miss.
Do some exploring and you'll find that the site has everything from the nonsense japing to debates on any number of diverse subjects. Many lasting friendships and relationships have been born on hootoo. It's kind of an online pub and encyclopaedia.
I am sure that you will love this community as much as we do There's lots of things to see, clubs to join and people to meet - please don't be shy - just jump right in - this is a friendly place. But be careful - it can become quite addictive - believe me I know
Enjoy!!
Have fun!!!
and above all  !!!
Feisor

Thank you so much. I've written my intro now. I have a number of pieces that I've already written, some of them as part of my degree in 2004. Do you think this will be the sort of thing to put on here? For example, my dissertation was on a not well researched topic (The Picture Exchange Communication System used with autistic children). I thought at the time that I should perhaps share my work, but never got round to it. Do you think this will be appropriate?
Thanks and all the best,
YourMessyplay (AKA Sharon)

Well done on opening your space 
Remember, it's not set in stone, you can always change it and add to it
As it says above, you're welcome
I suggest that, before you write for The Guide you check out the writing-guidelines and don't forget to read about copyright (you'll find it here ---> A308297 )
Because, if you want to publish elsewhere later, you need to know where you stand.
Take some time, too, to get to know this place - I'm sure that you will like it as much as we do
If you have any questions about hootoo (as we call h2g2) or need any help just drop me a line here and I'll get back to you asap 
Have fun
