Hi Tom
 
In article
 
Terrorism and Political Violence
 
 
 
you have this:--
 
 
 
The St Andrews Centre is well represented on the editorial board and the rest of the board is dominated by terrorologists fully signed up to supporting Western power.
 
 
 
I think from your list below, Schmidt and Taylor are the St Andrews bods on editorial board? can u name the names in the body text?
 
 
 
eg
 
The St Andrews Centre is well represented on the editorial board. Mr X, big cheese no 1 at the Centre, is an editor. Mr Y, smaller cheese at the Centre, is an associate editor. The rest of the board is dominated by terrorologists fully signed up to supporting Western power. [name the names here]
 
 
 
 
 
thanks--makes it a lot easier for folks to follow and they don't have to do so much work by figuring out the lists below and going to other pages, though the lists are good to have too. --[[User:Claire Robinson|Claire Robinson]] 19:01, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 
 
 
== thanks ==
 
 
 
Thanks for offering to fix that article Tom. If you don't have time let me know and I'll do it next time I'm working on Spin. It's pretty hard to work out who actually wrote stuff but usually I go for the most recent 'editor' of the article... wrong person here!

== Dr Strangelove ==
 
 
 
Apparently Kubrick got part of the original idea for Dr Strangelove from a thriller about a lone US bomber in the Soviet Union.  the book was given to him by [[Alastair Buchan]]who was at that time at the ISS.

== categories ==
 
 
 
Hi Tom
 
 
 
don't forget to add categories to yr articles on The 61 and Shield--you probably were going to as I'm sure they are works in prog. Ditto on any other articles you've worked on lately. Having categories seems to be the easiest way for public to find articles on a subject. sorry if I'm stating the obvious.

Hi Tom
 
 
 
what a fantastic job you've done on the terror portal page -- and it even has a nice A-Z list. makes my heart leap to look at it...
 
 
 
thanks so much

== portals ==
 
 
 
Hi Tom
 
 
 
well, the end result is really good. Some of the portal pages are looking great now and pretty user-friendly but others are sadly abandoned and need a lot of work.
 
 
 
Adding the overarching category to each article is a big job and I had to ask for some volunteer help to work on the GM portal. Amazingly someone came forward and put in many hours. Feel free to use the wiki@spinwatch.org list to ask for someone to help you. You just send an email to that address and all the Users will get it. Worth asking David first if Bill, our technical guy, has put in an extension to allow this process to be automated over many articles because they were discussing this.
