Here's a tip on finding the Wikispooks pagename of an event. Often we use the same name for events as [[Wikipedia]] does, though sometimes this is clearly not suitable - in these cases, provided you know the year of the event, you can find a list of events from going there, e.g. [[2016#Events]] lists all the events of 2016. -- [[User:Robin|Robin]] ([[User talk:Robin|talk]]) 18:03, 5 January 2020 (UTC) | Here's a tip on finding the Wikispooks pagename of an event.

Contents
Welcome to Wikispooks!
We're glad you came. There's lots to do.
The Community portal is probably the best place to start for new users. To add a Wikispooks search facility to your browser, go here. If you've got a topic you're itching to write about, just dive in. If you're not sure where to start, you can introduce yourself by editing either this page or your user page.

Norman Kirk
I was unaware of Norman Kirk, but the timing of his sudden demise does seem interesting, in light of the Canberra Coup. I've expanded the page. -- Robin (talk) 03:17, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
Redirects
I just fixed BILD Zeitung. Note that redirects only need the page name:
#REDIRECT[[Axel_Springer_Publishing_House]] , not #REDIRECT[[https://wikispooks.com/wiki/Axel_Springer_Publishing_House]]

Thanks for fixing it. I still haven't mastered the tools here, it will take a long time.
Ditchley
a) How to express the relationships between these Ditchley groups? What would you think about having hierarchical pagenames, e.g. Ditchley, Ditchley/UK, Ditchley/US, Ditchley/Canada etc?
b) For listing members, where possible, try to use the template (metadata), since this data is machine readable, so will appear on other pages (e.g. as "Member of: Ditchley/UK"). I did this for the Bilderberg meetings after all the attendance lists were leaked. There are different ways this could be done, and I'm not sure which would work best. One approach might be to have a page Ditchley/Governors (c.f. Bilderberg/Steering committee) and tp use |members= to allocate membership. Background information is: How many members/governors/meetings are there? Where is this documented? How often does membership change?... -- Robin (talk) 09:46, 17 October 2019 (UTC)
Hi Robin, Thanks for the tip, I was struggling with making proper lists. I'll look into it on the weekend.
And yes, I belive Ditchley, Ditchley/UK, Ditchley/US, Ditchley/Canada would work.
Conversing
For starting new conversations, the user talk page is good. Where there's an ongoing conversation, I'm not automatically informed, but will probably keep an eye on replies. Do remember to end comments on talk pages with "-- ~~~~", which signs it. -- Robin (talk) 15:09, 17 October 2019 (UTC)
Documents
Do add as many wikilinks (with '[') as you think helpful. The most important suggestion I have for what else to add would be |description, since this will help people navigate. -- Robin (talk) 14:33, 30 October 2019 (UTC)
Not all Integrity Initaive documents are linked
Not all II4 documents are showing in https://wikispooks.com/wiki/Integrity_Initiative/Leak/4. Is there anything I can do to get them to show. Example of one not showing: https://wikispooks.com/wiki/Document:CND_Integrity_Initiative_visit_to_Oslo,_29-31_Aug_2016
Or should I make a separate page with a list of all II4 documents existing on Wikispooks, including the ones that are jpg -pictures and pdf files? -- Terje (talk)
Okey-dokey, I'll keep an eye on them, and see if they show up over the next few weeks. I'll start on batch II 3 soon, it is more work than I anticipated. -- Terje (talk)
Mange takk
Mange takk for hjelpen med wikispooks prosjektet. Det blir satt stor pris på Terje.
Your Integrity Initiative work is most welcome, as is your latest Military basepage. -- Peter (talk) 15:43, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
It is my pleasure, Peter - this is fun! And let's see if the Wikispooks profile can be raised a bit in the future.--Terje (talk)
Finding the Wikispooks page
Here's a tip on finding the Wikispooks pagename of an event. Often we use the same name for events as Wikipedia does, though sometimes this is clearly not suitable - in these cases, provided you know the year of the event, you can find a list of events from going there, e.g. 2016#Events lists all the events of 2016. -- Robin (talk) 18:03, 5 January 2020 (UTC)
Simple tip
Sometimes I add content without supporting references, e.g. if I'm pretty sure but can't find a reference, or don't have time to. In this case, I use Template:cn to mark the major points where I feel a reference is justified. -- Robin (talk) 15:18, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
