If you have anything to say to me about articles I've created or heavily edited/contributed to, or images, or anything else uploaded or typed by me (i.e., you're a living, breathing being, and not a bot), it would be best to use the link to contact me, and NOT leave a message here. I'm on far too rarely to check. |

Thanks for uploading or contributing to '''[[:File:DNA at the BBC front.jpg]]'''. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under [[Wikipedia:Fair use|fair use]] but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to [[:File:DNA at the BBC front.jpg|the file description page]] and edit it to include a [[Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline|fair use rationale]]. |

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "[[Special:Contributions/JohnDBuell|my contributions]]" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box.

== Main page appearance == |
|||
Hello! This is a note to let the main editors of [[The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (radio series)|this article]] know that it will be appearing as [[Wikipedia:Today's featured article|the main page featured article]] on May 25, 2011. You can view the TFA blurb at [[Wikipedia:Today's featured article/May 25, 2011]]. If you think it is necessary to change the main date, you can request it with the featured article director {{user|Raul654}} or at [[Wikipedia talk:Today's featured article/requests]]. If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions of [[Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/instructions|the suggested formatting]]. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the [[Main Page]] so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :D Thanks!

'''''[[The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (radio series)|The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]]''''' is a [[comic science fiction|science fiction comedy]] radio series written by [[Douglas Adams]] and first broadcast in the United Kingdom on [[BBC Radio 4]] in 1978. The serial follows the adventures of [[English people|Englishman]] [[Arthur Dent]] and his friend [[Ford Prefect (character)|Ford Prefect]], an alien who writes for ''[[The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (fictional)|The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]]'', an intergalactic encyclopedia and travelogue. After Earth is destroyed in the first episode, Dent and Ford find themselves aboard a stolen spaceship piloted by a motley crew including [[Zaphod Beeblebrox]] (Ford's semi-cousin and Galactic President), a depressed [[robot]] called [[Marvin the Paranoid Android|Marvin]] and an Earth woman calling herself [[Trillian (character)|Trillian]], who is the only other surviving human being. A second series was transmitted in 1980 and the first series was adapted for [[The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (TV series)|television]]. This in turn was followed by five novels, a [[The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (computer game)|computer game]] and several [[The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy|other adaptations]]. Before his death in May 2001, Adams considered writing a third radio series based on his novel ''[[Life, the Universe and Everything]]''. [[Dirk Maggs]] eventually directed and co-produced radio series adaptations of that novel, as well as ''[[So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish]]'' and ''[[Mostly Harmless]]'' in 2004-5.

Revision as of 17:25, 4 December 2012
My user and talk page policies
I have noted that a few other Wikipedians have started posting such disclaimers, and I feel that I must as well, as my user page and talk page have been vandalized at various times.
- Vandalism will be reverted on sight. Period.
- Personal attacks will not be tolerated and will be reported on sight. Period.
- Defamatory statements will be removed AND reported on sight. Period.
I have read over MANY of the primary Wikipedia policies, and I do ask that other editors do the same, even newbies. I CAN AND WILL UPHOLD THEM.
