Peer Review: A341696 - Anne McCaffrey

Entry: Anne McCaffrey - A341696
Author: Greebo T. Cat ACE ## H2IQ @ A416783 ## - U65771

This is a very good entry, it covers everything you could ever want to know about an author and their works. The researcher has clearly even met the author! I think with a little work this would be a very good entry indeed, indeed. cheers

Hi, Athena!

I agree that this would make a very good entry indeed, but it already has! There is an Edited Entry by Greebo based on this at A408584, complete with a very nice picture of a dragon.

For every entry that is edited, there should be an unedited original version as well. When people are more used to the new features in Peer Review, they may start marking these originals as 'Not for Review', but for the moment, it's as well to search and see if there is already an edited version before submitting someone else's entry to Peer Review.

You should be able to remove this with the remove link on the Peer Review Page. Better luck next time - there really are a lot of neglected entries ou there which could make it through Peer Review.

cheers
Azara

Thank you Athena... tis always nice to know that someone enjoys your work ~grin~

Azara... is there anyway you know of updating a Guide Entry... my Anne McCaffrey entry had some text from one of Anne's books accompanying it... this was done with Ms. McCaffrey's permission... but was taken out when the beeb took over as they were scared of breaching copyright... when I informed Anne of this she was a little upset... and rather put out at having to once more give me permission... I passes on her letter to Peta... who agreed that I could reinstate the passage of writing, that Anne herself has chosen... I am not sure how to go about this... would you know???

Greebs..

Oh, ergit. I just discovered that meself. Ho hum. Sorry 'bout that! i had no idea that if an entry had a 'submit entry for review' button, it might already be edited! Hey ho, you live and learn. At any rate you live.

Hi, Greebo!

Update Headquarters at A496451 is the place to go for updates. However, at the moment this is run on a purely voluntary basis by Jimi X and Mikey the Humming Mouse, and they are both amazingly busy people, so I don't know how long it takes to get an update.

But I think such a clever cat should be able to work something out....
