Why has the reference link to Hydra and Minerva been taken off, without this reference few people are going to understand what the systems are for and what part they play in NPIA training. I personally added the sections Objectives of the NPIA, Serious Crime Analysis, Crime Operational Suppport, National Injuries Database, National Missing Persons Bureau, Training and the Technology section,. However when it comes to referencing my work or proividing links I have been prevented from doing so and the page is put back to the sections I originally added.

Can this page not be added to, what is wrong with a reference explaining what minerva and hydra are, indeed what was wrong with a link to the Metropolitan Police Crime Academy, one of the most important crime fighting academies in the world, and which has close links and operational ties with the NPIA.

It seems to me that petty moderating is destroying any attempt to even reference or explain such points in any detail. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bamford (talk • contribs) 9 February 2008.

update to NPIA page[edit]

{{editsemiprotected}} under the "Technology" section, there should be a link to "Impact Nominal Index" as this is an NPIA computer system. Could someone add that in for me please?

COI[edit]

I assume this page is tagged with COI because of the editor Bamford possibly being the author James Bamford. I can't find any other reasons why it would be. He hasn't edited in over a year so I think the tag can be removed. Smartse (talk) 14:49, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the COI tag should be removed. The discussion was in Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard/Archive 22. It was not the author James Bamford, though. Somebody in the UK connected with the agency. EdJohnston (talk) 15:06, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Semiprotection review[edit]

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.

18:08, 12 February 2008 Hu12 protected National Policing Improvement Agency ‎ (multiple anon repeatedly removing maintenence tags see Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest/Noticeboard#National_Policing_Improvement_Agency [edit=autoconfirmed:move=autoconfirmed])

After 18 months I think it's time to decide whether this semiprotection is still necessary. As well as welcoming the opinions of regular editors, I have contacted Hu12, the protecting admin. --TS 06:43, 12 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Agree, I've unlocked it.--Hu12 (talk) 13:50, 12 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

NDPR ?[edit]

The government list of QUANGOs today has for the NPIA "No longer an NDPB" but the article reads "The United Kingdom's National Policing Improvement Agency (NPIA) is a non-departmental public body". Which is correct? --jmb (talk) 17:34, 14 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
