HI Tom

don't worry about "postmodernist" Cooper, I went in and shifted the definition to the top of the "postmodern" section... don't like words like that in our articles, but guess we are stuck with it as it's one of RC's hobby horses.

Revision as of 14:35, 22 March 2009

Hi,

Can you also update the page on Feldman with the Rothschild/oligarch story?

And why don't you post some of the pages that you want to see work done on as a list on the portal page (ie on the spooks, NI or Neocons portal)?

Hi,

try this way of creating new pages:

http://www.spinprofiles.org/index.php/Article_Submission Let me know if there are any more headings or formatting that should be added to the default.

--David 15:34, 22 August 2008 (BST)


OK.

Can you suggest the formatting for such a page?

and edit this page to the appropriate format? Format for institution

standpoint

Hi

I entered Standpoint.online after checking SAU where there was NO indication of the magazine. Maybe the sensible thing to do when entering the type of article which is subsidiary to the main one is to actually mention it in the main article.

Please merge them... up to you.

user-friendly

Hi Tom

doing a quick tour of the portals prior to launch. I wonder, cd you pls make the N. Ireland portal page a bit more accessible to the public/non experts by giving a short summary of the issues around Northern Ireland? ie what 'sins' are we going to be looking at in the articles in yr portal? you mention the intelligence networks that have sprung up around N Ireland issue. what does this mean for the public/democracy? what are the main problems in the N Ireland field? etc. I suppose a lot of the public think that the whole N Ireland issue has gone away and you will need to explain why it hasn't.

Pls get in touch if you have any q's or if this is mystifying.

best wishes Claire

redundant headers?

--Claire Robinson 20:11, 8 January 2009 (UTC) Hi Tom, doing a quick tour of the portal pages, looks as if u have 2 redundant headers, "Northern Ireland" and "Issues"--can u either move some text into one or both of these sections or delete the headers? let me know if you can't find the coding in the edit page, it takes me a while to find these things too. best,--Claire Robinson 12:56, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

Philip Giraldi

Hi Tom

Happened across this article http://www.spinprofiles.org/index.php/Philip_Giraldi

could you

--pls give a brief intro to who this fellow is/what he does?

--explain who Beckett Brown Int. is?

--introduce the quote saying who is speaking and what the quote shows/the point you're making in including the quote?

let me know if this doesn't make sense.

It's just a bit telescoped and needs to be unpicked for the reader.

thanks! let me know if you cannot get to it and I'll have a go. Claire R (my signature thingie isn't working, no idea why)

categories

Hi Tom

can u pls add the category "Neocons" or whatever your main (overarching, containing all articles in yr portal) category is, to all articles in the Neocons portal? launch is very soon and we need to ensure that all your articles are accessible by the main category, which I assume is Neocons.

thanks! --Claire Robinson 13:11, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

clarification

Hi Tom

Thanks for these new articles. Could you just clarify one bit in

http://www.spinprofiles.org/index.php/National_Extremism_Tactical_Co-ordination_Unit

what exactly is Monbiot suggesting--ie which claims is there evidence to back? I'm assuming Monbiot is saying that the police were just agitating for more funding because the animal rights groups were in disarray??

George Monbiot suggested that there was evidence to back these claims in the original Observer article.[12] It stated:

The rise of eco-extremism coincides with the fall of the animal rights activist movement. Police said the animal rights movement was in 'disarray' and that its ringleaders had either been prosecuted or were awaiting prosecution, adding that its 'critical mass' of hardcore extremists was sufficiently depleted to have halted its effectiveness.[13]


thank you! --Claire Robinson 12:39, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

robert cooper

Hi Tom

could you by way of a public service go into Robert Cooper and define what the author of this article (not you I know) means by postmodernism in this context? I only know what it means with regard to buildings and interior design and that doesn't help me much here ... the definition will need to come as soon as the word is mentioned. we also have "premodern" which will also need definition.

many thanks! --Claire Robinson 19:34, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

don't worry about cooper

HI Tom

don't worry about "postmodernist" Cooper, I went in and shifted the definition to the top of the "postmodern" section... don't like words like that in our articles, but guess we are stuck with it as it's one of RC's hobby horses.

thanks, --Claire Robinson 14:35, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
