Claire's favourite Star Trek character

Have a look at the resources section of the page on CoRWM: http://www.spinprofiles.org/index.php/CoRWM or http://www.spinprofiles.org/index.php/Bell_Pottinger_Communications#References

The key thing is to reference docuemtns fully (ie author, title, source, vdate etc) and to upload the documents to the site via the 'upload image' link under 'special pages'. To determine the url for the uploaded file right click on the name of it once uploaded and 'copy link location'.

FOI ref author, title for this doc dates etc et

+fantastic material on the drinks lobby.  What a range of organisations!  Sorry if I interfered in the ESO while you were editing!  I will keep out of the way now.

-I am of the opinion that it is enough to have one link per named instance in an article.  A proliferation of links is detrimental sytlistically or in terms of readability.  I removed some of those duplicate links in the Wollack article.

-== not very useful ==
-Dear CH
-I am afraid that just adding links to articles, especially where there are duplicates of the same, is distinctly less than useful.  Some of the links, to say, newspapers, generic names, are not useful at all.

-== yes + example ==
-Hi Clare;
-First of all, I appreciate what you are doing -- Spin* was in dire need of some maintenance and fact checking.
-Yes, what i mean is what you summarized... avoid the proliferation of links.  Some people enter silly links all over the place (in wikipedia it is absurd; the year, day... every single city, name...) and this makes it less esthetically appealing (a consideration) and less readable.  I also think one should think twice about adding a link if there is no underlying article...
-I try to add a section "Affiliations" and try to restrict the links to that section.  That is my preference, nothing else.  I simply urge careful use of links...
-see this example: [[Leslie_H._Gelb]]
-Keep up the good work
