Hi,

good work. remember to put [[ brackets around each personal name and organisation when you are formatting text.

Tor, good stuff on Bayer. some tips:

to avoid a lone url turning into a footnote number try giving it a title like: [url see here] or [url News] Almost all names of organisations and people should be enclosed in double square brackets like this.

you might want to try dividing the Bayer page up into smaller pages to make it easier to load and also to work on.

Habe a look at how this has been done on the Raytheon page and the BAe Systems page.

let me know if you have any queries. --David 18:28, 13 Feb 2007 (GMT)

Careful that both you and Peter are not working on the same profile at the same time as this will lead to one of you losing your work...

FT 2001 on Lexis nexis. I think Will was able to get you access to this?

Hi, I see you are having mixed views on the use of [[


http://www.spinprofiles.org/index.php?title=Bayer:_Who%2C_Where%2C_How_Much%3F&diff=next&oldid=19239

The rule isL: do not include prefixes like Sir, Dr Prof etc inside brackets ecxept in the case of Lord or Baroness where there is no obvious first/given name.

Also, don't worry too muych about outdated links etc. The key think is to get the formatting sorted and then updating can be done after we launch. There is plenty of work to be done here, so don't worry about that. Our priority has got to be getting pages into basic shape rather than comprehensive updates at the minute. --David 09:26, 22 Feb 2007 (GMT)


Hi, good work on the Bayer influence page: Can you make sure that you leave 'The' out of the names of organisations inside the brackets?

eg: not The European Chemical Industry Council but The European Chemical Industry Council not The European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries Associations but The European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries Associations

ok? --David 16:38, 22 Feb 2007 (GMT)


Actually it should be: European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations

Hi

It is best to create articles with a minimum number of <saves> in wiki... in other words, don't use wiki as a means to edit your articles, this should be kept outside. a smaller number of changes keeps the history clearer.
