Spam articles for deletion
Hey, can you delete these pages? The spammers snuck them in. Also, what's the best way to tag these for deletion? http://wikispooks.com/wiki/Har_f%C3%B6r_f%C3%B6rsta_g%C3%A5ngen_i_mitt_liv_k%C3%B6pte_linser_via_n%C3%A4tet_27 http://wikispooks.com/wiki/I_ll_fight_with_every_brain_cells_of_mine_to_not_remember_it_25

- We get a couple every day now. We keep a close eye on things and None has lasted more than about 12 hours. It's a pain having to delete them and associated images but not too onerous yet. We are considering at requiring a verified email address before an account can be activated - or some other way of making spam page-creation more difficult. Thanks for notifying. --Peter P 06:42, 21 September 2011 (IST)

Just wanted to say thanks for linking to the wiki page which I had expanded. Good luck with WikiSpooks...seems like an amusing project.Small 01:15, 20 July 2011 (IST)
- Thanks for heads up Small. Comments, observations, input/authorship even, from Wikipedia-savvy people always welcome. We do not seek confrontation but we KNOW the site rationale stands scrutiny. --Peter P 11:37, 21 July 2011 (IST)
Critically important info missing from Finders Keepers article
Customs agents links with right-wing extremists
Some very important and highly relevant information is missing from McGowan's article.
The basis of the article is a series of US Customs reports written by ss/a Ramon J Martinez. These reports describe investigations into a group known as The Finders, carried out primarily by Martinez and ss/a Bob Harrold.
These reports are the only 'official' documents in which an original investigator, (ss/a Martinez), claims to have been told; "...the investigation into the activity of the Finders had become a CIA internal matter. The MPD report has been classified SECRET and was not available for review. I was advised that the FBI had withdrawn from the investigation several weeks prior and that the FBI Foreign Counter Intelligence Division had directed MPD not to advise the FBI Washington Field Office of anything that had transpired". Martinez does not name the person whom he claims to have told him this. Martinez was to have met with the primary investigator from the MPD, Detective Bradley, but says "he was no available". Martinez describes the source of this info only as "a third party" i.e., someone who was not personally involved in the investigation.
Ramon J Martinez was at one time the best friend of Patriot militia zealot Mark Koernke.
http://time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,134327,00.html
"Koernke did manage to attract a few friends. One of these was Ramon Martinez, then an upperclassman and now with the U.S. Customs Service in Washington. "The majority opinion was that he was nuts to have around," Martinez says now. "But I saw it differently. I saw a guy with his own way of doing things." Martinez enjoyed Koernke's intellect, his ability to talk at length about history or classical music". "Koernke first came to most Americans' attention when it was reported that he was wanted for questioning in connection with the Oklahoma City bombing. That turned out to be misleading. Stories that he had faxed an announcement of the bombing to a Congressman before it occurred, and that Timothy McVeigh once acted as his bodyguard, died on the vine; the fbi confirmed that he was not a suspect. In fact, say observers, Koernke's influence on the radical right, while less tangible, is more pervasive. The militia movement prides itself on being "unorganized," spontaneous and unburdened by a national structure. Yet it does have opinion leaders, and Koernke is one of the most vocal".
Mark Koernke was an associate of Patriot militia zealot and habitual satanic panic promoter Ted Gunderson. They did far-right conference presentations together.
http://articles.latimes.com/1995-05-08/news/mn-63806_1_mark-koernke
"Koernke was one of several anti-government speakers scheduled to address the five-hour "taking our country back" conference at the Palm Springs Hilton resort. In all, organizers said, more than 600 people attended at $12 a ticket, with about 200 watching on closed-circuit TV in a separate room because no space was left in the ballroom" "Among the speakers who appeared before Koernke was scheduled to take the podium was Ted L. Gunderson, a former FBI agent and self-proclaimed satanic expert, who told the crowd that the government is using last month's bombing of the federal building in Oklahoma City to "arouse the American public . . . to further erode our liberties and destroy constitutional rights."
For many years, Ted Gunderson was the most ardent evangelist for Martinez' Customs report and sold copies of his commentary to it, linking the CIA to satanic child abuse and mind control generated multiple personality disorder.
In 1994, Martinez received official reprimand for intentionally causing a person under investigation to become aware of that investigation.
http://ll.georgetown.edu/FEDERAL/judicial/fed/opinions/96opinions/96-3354.html
"By letter dated December 7, 1994, Customs informed Martinez that it proposed to remove him from his position because he had improperly disclosed case information to a close co-worker of an individual under investigation, knowing that the information would be disclosed to the individual. On July 5, 1995, however, the agency mitigated Martinez’s penalty, by reducing it from a removal to a five- day suspension without pay and reassignment to the position of Physical Security Specialist, GS-080-13, in the Security Programs Division".
ss/a Robert "Bob" Harrold is openly a Patriot zealot, no different than Koernke or Gunderson.

Make the bots 'bot's
Please use your bureaucrat powers to add MaintenanceBot and UpgradeBot to the "bots" group - or add me to the "bureaucrats" group so I can do it. I'm not sure it makes much difference but it would keep the recent changes list tidy. Robin (talk) 06:19, 8 December 2013 (GMT)
Bots will be bots
I see you've been editing the [[ and ]] away from author's names. I have the technology to do this automatically, so it's not needed. Some edits however will always be beyond bots to do (e.g. I turned "review of a book" into "book review"). Or look at expanding the SMW stuff. Robin (talk) 13:44, 8 December 2013 (GMT)
- That's good. There are still lots of them like that. There are also many "Local|" parameters enclosed in brackets too. Maybe you could set your script loose on them too? Have to say I'm just an itsy-bit nervous about letting editing bots loose. I can see the potential benefits but the potential for damage on vast numbers of pages is a bit scary. We do have the find/replace text extension installed. That trawls though pages based on various selection criteria - but I have never used it. --Peter P (talk) 14:07, 8 December 2013 (GMT)
