Origins
When launched, WikiSpooks was originally described as "an amalgam of Wikipedia, Cryptome and the Deep Politics Forum". After a coupld of months of work learning how to administer a server, retired UK businessman and Deep Politics Forum administrator, Peter Presland started the site in May 2010. He ahnounced it on Cryptome[1], the Deep Politics Forum[2], Sabretache[3] and several other sites.

Logo
The Wikispooks logo is often remarked upon. Administrator, Peter Presland explains how he came up with it:
I was casting about for a simple, unique, eye-catching, recognisable, memorable etc etc image - all the orthodox requirements of a logo in fact. It had to be a home-made job because the services of a professional was out of the question.
I perused hundreds of open-source images looking for something fitting the above criteria. I was well aware of the significance and widespread use of the triangular form in occult symbolism - especially 'Illuminati' related and that did indeed give me pause. However, in finally deciding on using it, my reasoning went like this:
- In spite of the reservations indicated above and because of its occult connections, a standard triangle is clearly consistent with representation of any 'Official Narrative'
- An impossible triangle (ie the Wikispooks logo triangle) is therefore representative of the misleading to impossible nature of any and all 'Official Narratives'
- The light shining though the impossible triangle symbolises the illumination that comes from recognising the true nature of all 'Official Narratives'.
