HI Rizwaan
 
 
 
Thanks for Home Office. I am not sure what text you've lost -- for me it ends with
 
 
 
"Work with our partners to build an efficient, effective and proportionate criminal justice system"
 
 
 
but in general it's a good idea to click Save often (every time you write a sentence or two). If your session times out and says you can't save it, then have a Word doc open, then in SpinP in your web browser, hit the back arrow on your browser to take you back to your work that you intended to save. Select all, copy and paste the text into the word doc so you have it safe. Log back into Spin, then copy and paste in the text from the Word doc.
 
 
 
There is another way you can 'lose' the visibility of text even tho it is really there -- by forgetting to put the / in the 'end ref' coding
 
 
 
--ie what should be
 
 
 
<nowiki></ref></nowiki>
 
 
 
you type as <nowiki><ref></nowiki>
 
 
 
or forget to put in any ref coding at all.
 
 
 
In such cases, just look for the last ref you did and put in the final / . The missing text miraculously reappears.
 
 
 
many thanks for your work and hope you can remember what the Home Office missing stuff should be!

Hi Rizwaan
 
 
 
as a PS, when you create new pages, can you add a category? choose from those listed here
 
http://www.spinprofiles.org/index.php?title=Special:Categories&limit=500
 
 
 
(they are case sensitive so do stick to spelling that's there) or if you do not find a suitable one, suggest a new one to me? I've added a category to Home Office page, see foot of page.
 
 
 
thank you!

Hello Rizwaan
 
 
 
it's brilliant that you've started to contribute (a lot!) to Spin. can you just make sure you use the new style referencing -- guide here
 
 
 
http://www.spinprofiles.org/index.php/SpinProfiles:A_Guide_to_Referencing#Old_and_new_style_referencing
 
 
 
so can you go through all your articles and make the refs into new style ones? you also need to include all the info needed in a reference -- the guide at the above url will tell you what's needed -- eg author if there is one, title of article or web page, date of publication if there is one, name of publication, date accessed etc. it shouldn't be too difficult as you have the weblinks.
 
 
 
any questions -- please ask by leaving me a message on my talk page -- click on my signature link below or go to

and then click on + sign in the tabs at top of page, write message, sign by clicking on squiggle icon third from right in your editing tab bar above the text box, and that's it.
 
 
 
many thanks

Jonathan Evans on the Terror Threat

Speech given in September 2010. Notable excerpts:

On Northern Ireland: “…this year we have seen over thirty attacks or attempted attacks by dissident Republicans on national security targets compared to just over twenty for the whole of last year.”

On AQ Terrorism he said: “I don't want to give a number for those of current security interest as that has sometimes been used in the past as a kind of metric for the severity of the threat.”

On the North-West Ten plot: “Operation Pathway, the disruption of an Al Qaida cell in North West England 18 months ago, is a good example of a necessarily early intervention where criminal charges could not eventually be sustained.”

On frequency of AQ terrorist plots: “The fact that there are real plots uncovered on a fairly regular basis demonstrates that there is a persistent intent on the part of Al Qaida and its associates to attack the UK.”

On the place where the threat emanates from: “The percentage of the priority plots and leads we see in the UK linked to Al Qaida in the tribal areas of Pakistan, where Al Qaida senior leadership is still based, has dropped from around 75% two or three years ago to around 50% now. This does not mean that the overall threat has reduced but that it has diversified … the reduction [in the Tribal areas of Pakistan] is also partly a result of increased activity elsewhere.”

On monitoring people related to terrorism: “Experience has shown that it is very rarely the case that anyone who has been closely involved with terrorist-related activity can be safely taken off our list of potentially dangerous individuals; the tail of intelligence "aftercare" gets increasingly lengthy.”
