[edit] INCIS

Gidday,

That's a great start you've made to the article on INCIS. I assume you're going back to it, because at the moment it doesn't make clear what actually happened to the project. As I recall, the first stage was rolled out but was much less functional than the police wanted, and the whole project was eventually cancelled. I'd have to check the inquiry you linked to and other sources to confirm this, and you must already know. I presume that project was intended as a replacement for the Wanganui computer, which it should probably link to even though we don't have an article yet. What do the police use now instead of Wanganui computer and INCIS?-gadfium 23:24, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the extra information. I see Moriori has added that the project was abandoned in 1999, perhaps you could clarify in the article that future development was scrapped, but the system developed to that point remains in use.-gadfium 00:46, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Portal:New Zealand/News and Peter Brocks unfortunate death

I noticed you added Peter Brocks death to Portal:New Zealand/News. While it is tragic, it is not New Zealand news, but Australian. I have hence removed it. --Midnighttonight Procrastinating on uni work... 22:21, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Ok, fair enough I see he is in the Australian portal --Zven 22:29, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
(Replying to your comment at User talk:Midnighttonight) There is Portal:Current events/Oceania, which covers his death, and is linked to with "More current events..." from Portal:New Zealand/News.-gadfium 00:08, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
Thanks gadfium, looks like the most appropriate place, although first glance the namespace and template doesn't look consistent with other portal/news templates --Zven 00:36, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bairds Mainfreight Primary School

What does a decile rating of "1A" mean? I see the MOE site lists it as "1", and I haven't seen a letter suffix for decile ratings before. I'm wondering if this is a typo.-gadfium 20:05, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Decile 1 has been split into four parts decile 1A, 1B, 1C, and 1D. Decile 1A is the lowest. Iteresting that MOE doesn't show that since it their rating system --Zven 21:07, 30 April 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Bain case

hah - when did you get the nz police info about the bain case from? unbelievable that apparantly the privy council has rubbished decisions by the court of appeal 5 times in the last 5 to 6 years!! 202.36.134.22 21:52, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

How I know about this is that a friend was a police recruit in the 90's, and talked to me in great length on the phone some years ago about the case as it was presented to them during his recruitment. Personally I am not taking sides, I follow the ruling of the Privy Council decision that one of the two men (David or his father Robin) committed the murders, but that David was not given a fair trial and a substantial miscarriage of justice has taken place. What I find concerning is the amount of anadmisable or clearly misleading evidence presented in this trial. The evidence and discrepancies needs to be logically assessed and added to the article David Bain. --Zven 05:02, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
