Revision as of 12:14, 2 May 2009

Referencing

1. go to the bottom of the page and add the following at the bottom of the page ==Notes== <references/> This tells the system to put the refs at the bottom

2. When you need to insert a reference insert it immediately after the quote: 'Blah, blah, blah'<ref> George Bush, '[URL Blah, blah, blah]' The Guardian, date, page etc</ref>==Notes== This will then appear in the correct order at the bottom

More guidance here: A guide to referencing

RFID

"Porter, in his article, mentions the outcomes of a system being employed, and used by the state for social and political control of its people"

A couple of sentences on how exactly they can control people/society with it would be usefully terrifying. I have heard rumours about the government being able to suddenly turn off a switch in yr microchip and you can't buy anything, use bank accounts etc as your life has been effectively frozen. And this of course without the necessary predecessor of judicial trial. Any sentence or two that gives a hint of the powers they would have over us would be great. Maybe quote the sentences from Porter article--it's good.

Are there any places in the world where mental patients, prisoners on day release, old folks with Alzheimer's etc. are chipped to stop them wandering off? What's insidious is that we are told that these things are for our own good, whereas the ultimate aim may well not be in our interests.

categories: surveillance/ surveillance society

PS re categories, I think we need new category like "surveillance society" or "surveillance" or similar, if David agrees? I couldn't see any categories that fit the subject. It's an important subject for us. Claire


references and links

1. can you follow the guidance at A Guide to Referencing and specifically do: author, Title(link), publication date, pages, accessed etc ... 2. When linking to a company that they are now with can you enclose the co in brackets eg Cinven and then paste the url/website afterwards in (brackets)? --David 01:24, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

refs

Yes, you are right. It is the former...

HI Barcin

Re Freedom to Fly, FYI here is a press release that says they get funding from BAA (surprise) http://www.foe.co.uk/resource/press_releases/1002conf.html

category deleted

HI Barcin

just to keep you up to date, I have deleted the category "Think-Tanker" as it is a near-duplicate of the category "Think Tanker". The latter (Think Tanker) had more articles in it so have kept that one and re-assigned all articles in the category Think-Tanker to Think Tanker. If that makes sense. So all you need to do is ensure that all future Think Tankers are put in a category of that name, without the hyphen.

thanks and best wishes --Claire Robinson 19:12, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
