Who\'s Who - richsc - 09-15-2005
Quite a while back I started on a group of Who's Who listings [url:1xc3gzx1]http://www.geocities.com/richsc53/studies/whoswhomilitary[/url] but quickly discovered the problem of not having a database. I've let it go for a while, but just realized that the new RAT has a database backend, and very useful too. Now I need to design it so Jasper can put it together, so I'm looking for suggestions on field names and pertinent information that would make it useful. To start:
Name, Title
Expertise (should this be a list or free text?)
University
public address and contact information
publication(s) and their ISBN
Website
Other suggestions?

Publications? That might it some looooong lists.
E-mail address?
Organisations or networks they work for?
Starting up the DB - richsc - 09-19-2005
Jasper, how do I create the DB and the pages for this? Since you can add fields later, I think what's there now will do. Maybe a text field/block so freeform descriptions can be added.

From my humble oppinion I think you could include Aitor Iriarte as an authority in ancient arillery studies an poliorcetics.

Many thanks, but better erase 'poliorcetics'...
Aitor

I had to look it up: Poliorcetics, the art of siege warfare and fortification.
