missing text

HI Rizwaan

Thanks for Home Office. I am not sure what text you've lost -- for me it ends with

"Work with our partners to build an efficient, effective and proportionate criminal justice system"

but in general it's a good idea to click Save often (every time you write a sentence or two). If your session times out and says you can't save it, then have a Word doc open, then in SpinP in your web browser, hit the back arrow on your browser to take you back to your work that you intended to save. Select all, copy and paste the text into the word doc so you have it safe. Log back into Spin, then copy and paste in the text from the Word doc.

There is another way you can 'lose' the visibility of text even tho it is really there -- by forgetting to put the / in the 'end ref' coding

--ie what should be

</ref>

you type as <ref>

or forget to put in any ref coding at all.

In such cases, just look for the last ref you did and put in the final / . The missing text miraculously reappears.

many thanks for your work and hope you can remember what the Home Office missing stuff should be!

category

Hi Rizwaan

as a PS, when you create new pages, can you add a category? choose from those listed here http://www.spinprofiles.org/index.php?title=Special:Categories&limit=500

(they are case sensitive so do stick to spelling that's there) or if you do not find a suitable one, suggest a new one to me? I've added a category to Home Office page, see foot of page.

thank you!

refs

Hello Rizwaan

it's brilliant that you've started to contribute to Spin. can you just make sure you use the new style referencing -- guide here

http://www.spinprofiles.org/index.php/SpinProfiles:A_Guide_to_Referencing#Old_and_new_style_referencing

so can you go through all your articles and make the refs into new style ones? you also need to include all the info needed in a reference -- the guide at the above url will tell you what's needed -- eg author if there is one, title of article or web page, date of publication if there is one, name of publication, date accessed etc. it shouldn't be too difficult as you have the weblinks.

any questions -- please ask by leaving me a message on my talk page -- click on my signature link below or go to http://www.spinprofiles.org/index.php/User_talk:Claire_Robinson

and then click on + sign in the tabs at top of page, write message, sign by clicking on squiggle icon third from right in your editing tab bar above the text box, and that's it.

many thanks
