User talk:Fiona Campbell

Hi Fiona,

this is your talk page for people to leave you messages.

here is a link to a story about microsoft editing wikipedia pages... http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/01/24/tech/main2392719.shtml?source=RSSattr=HOME_2392719 --David 21:43, 2 Feb 2007 (GMT)

Hi fiona,

good work on Microsoft. The thing to do with the board members is to put square brackets round their names: eg Bill Gates. Then save and then cut the descriptions and biography of them and paste it onto their own page.

I have done it for Bill Gates.

Do you see what I mean?

Hi, can you transfer the relevant material on the 2collaborate page to the 2Collaborate page which was already there? (spot the difference in the titles?) --David 18:16, 22 Mar 2007 (GMT)

Hi, the correct title should be Scottish Chambers of Commerce where ther eis already a page. can you copy any of your new stuff across to the original pag?

thanks --David 19:54, 24 Mar 2007 (GMT)

Hi fiona, I see you have been busy! Just a few pointers: 1. make sure there is not a page already there for an organisation 2. make sure that you give the full name of the organisations and not just its initials 3. Make sure you don't just paste in the organisations own view of itself. Instead you can put its view in quotes and also give some other verificable information from other sources. 4. make sure you don't create pages which contain material which do not reflect the title of the page. eg

• Law Society, should be Law Society of Scotland;
• Scottish Chamber of Commerce material should be added to the Scottish Chambers of Commerce page;
• Federation of Small Businesses needs references
• Scottish Chamber of Commerce, Federation of Small Businesses - this page looks like a mistake? Can you relocate whatever material you want from this to another page and let me know and I will delete the page?
• NHS Scotland before the Microsoft deal looks like a press article. If you want to use this material you should simply quote from the article on the Microsoft page under a heading like:

==Microsoft and the NHS in Scotland== or if you think you need a new page to deal with the NHS issue and Microsoft Try the following Microsoft: Relations with the NHS in Scotland (or a similar title) but I would leave this until you actually have too much material on the Microsoft page itself.

• NHS UK Again this doesn't look like a page on the NHS. can you remove this material?
• NHS Scotland, same applies to this
• NHS, same applies
• Police Force same applies: There should not be a page title like this. It is possible to have a particular police force like for example Lothian and Borders Police
• 2collaborate I have redirected this to the existing 2Collaborate (with a capital 'C') page and pasted your text on the talk page here: http://www.spinprofiles.org/index.php/Talk:2Collaborate Can you incorporate what you need and then delete the stuff on the talk page?

Also below I have pasted the contents of your page on the IoD. As you will see I have redirected this to the Institute of Directors. Feel free to incorporate whatever add to that page from below (in quotes etc)

Lastly, send me a message if any of this is not clear etc?

Thanks

Membership

The IoD is the professional body for business leaders and we have been representing individual directors from all sectors for the last 100 years. Over this time, we have created a series of benefits and effective business tools designed to support our members in their strategic decision-making and their ever-growing portfolio of responsibilities required of today's directors. We recognise that they have individual needs and we can help them meet their personal business challenges too.

Joining the IoD

How the IoD can support you

It is widely acknowledged that UK directors are world leaders in terms of corporate governance and business innovation - the Institute of Directors (IoD) is proud to support them.

Membership of the IoD will give you access to a variety of benefits and services, including free access to a number of prestigious business locations across the UK and on the Continent.

Am I eligible to join?

From CEOs of private and public sector organisations to entrepreneurs of start-up companies, if you are responsible for the strategic direction of your organisation, we can support you both now and in your future career.

You need not be a registered director to qualify. To clarify whether you are eligible you can contact the IoD Membership Development Department on 020 7766 8888.

How much is membership?

The current membership fee is £285* per year and there is a one-off joining fee of £200, which is subject to change at the end of the year. To avoid potential fee increases and the annual joining process, why not join for multiple years? You will also save money, as we will reduce the election fee, depending on the number of years you join for. What's more, the membership fee is normally tax deductible.
