The Oracle Project

Well, at least I'm putting my irritation into something productive. I added new pages:

(I just realized that this page was a duplicate, but it won't allow me to delete pages, so I'm going to transfer the information onto the "Non-Profit" (no "s") page and allow this one to be deleted so as not to take up extra space) [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Up to 286 pages. Krystalline and Eon are effing pimp. I'm really liking that people are putting their own personal touch on this.

Added [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] to urban survival

Bunch of new sections on Tactics, Shelters and more. Up to 291 pages. If you haven't looked through it in the last 48 hours, check it out now.

added a link to IIIA concealable BP vest.. will add more when i get the time

304 pages. I'm getting the Organized Crime section to be pretty decent and I'm very proud of Engineering. I hit a gold mine in library science resources an hour ago but I'm too exhausted to upload it all now. In the next few days I'll get that stuff up and organized.

Drug information page added: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Will be updated later with specific studies after I search through the interwebs and my peer-reviewed article search engines.

I would like to be a part of this project and contribute to it as research is one of my strong points. Let me know in what areas you would need help on. I would like to see a social service page if we don't already have one.

BRAVO!!!! I will be contributing where and when I can..Thanks Zimmer!

I have to say, the past couple of days I've been reading my ass off on the site.

We're actually short on social service pages right now. The only pages that pertain to that area currently are the Low-Income Housing, Non-Profit, and Shelters pages, all of which I haven't gotten to fully post for yet. Thanks for helping out on this.

I just made an account on wikispaces. I am just waiting for you to accept me in order to start working. I would like to see nonprofit, nonprofits, low income housing, and shelters under the banner of social services, so we can have all social related services on one page rather than scattered around.

Music to my ears! Honest opinion, what are your favorites? What's good, what's bad, what's ugly?

Also, Dead End, and anyone else, you don't need to be a member to edit it. However, being a member let's you track what you've done.

Zimmer, Do you think it is a wise idea to just let anyone come in and edit the pages? Shouldn't it be left to only admins and moderators to edit, add, and delete anything from these pages? I am just bringing this up because anybody could just waltz into the oracle project and screw everything up that you guys have worked so hard on just for the heck it.

I'm sure there's a backup system.

I can change stuff back if it's messed with. If it happens, I'll lock it down, but I'd like to keep it as open and accessible as possible.

Allowing public posting is always a security risk. Not to mention, you tend to break out in 'misinformers'.

Glad to see you're still alive, BTW.

So far I'm reviewing every change that's made. Some stuff does need editing already.

And yes, life is good and I am not dead. Nothing like getting to explain that to Thanatos himself.

Research tools, hate crimes, urban survival, and criminal investigation are my current favorites.

Urban Survival isn't terribly organized but some of the best links are there. I love the "How to Disappear in the US" file.

Research Tools I'm pretty proud of, and I think Criminal Investigation is a great start for newbies.

And Krystalline has really rocked some awesome on Hate Crimes.

I'm going to be adding quite a few links to Organized Crime in the next few days, including a lot of stuff on gangs and the history of the Mafia.

Damn, I better pick up the pace(;

Criminal Investigation, Organized Crime, Computer Science, Engineering, Research Tools and Digital Libraries have all been updated

I've added a new page and two new entries to the Non-Profit page.

More Changes added to Non-Profit, Missing Persons, Shelters, and Hate Crimes. I'm considering adding a page on Homelessness, but I know that I don't have as much information on it as others who use this site, so I figured I would leave that up to one of y'all.
