BACSA link
Hi Eleanor, yes I see your point. I've restored the link accordingly, but I did put the internal link to our page on the acronym in brackets. I agree it doesn't have much content and therefore value at the moment, but someone thought it necessary for the fibiwiki to have a page about BACSA and so maybe in future it will be of more use. I don't think it hurts to leave it there in the brackets, but if you think otherwise, feel free to remove it. Thanks for quickly pointing this out to me, Sarahb 11:23, 25 March 2009 (PDT)
- Oh by the way, I don't know if you are connected to BACSA, but do you know anything about this datebase on their site (BACSA)? I only happened across it recently in a google search and I cannot see how you get to it from the main BACSA site (so I wasn't sure if it is officially up and running). I actually found it very useful - do you think it is worth us linking to it somewhere? Sarahb 11:29, 25 March 2009 (PDT)
- Oh sorry, and one more thing - was it ok to change the link to the India Office Select materials to point straight to the Select Materials pertaining to BACSA? I haven't changed that back, but will if you prefer. Sarahb 11:33, 25 March 2009 (PDT)
- Have changed the Select materials link. That was clumsy of me not to check it after I changed it. I think I was doing too many things at once! I'm sorry if it seemed I was correcting your work - I was trying to be helpful and failed on both counts! Anyway, I can see that you have considered the reading lists very carefully so I'll know better in future and won't meddle. Thanks for the info on that BACSA database - I will leave it unlinked then, seeing as it is a prototype. Thanks Eleanor, Sarahb 13:42, 25 March 2009 (PDT)
