day 230 [ voice | action | filtered & open ]
[ filtered to investigative team ]

Greetings. For those with whom I have not spoken directly, my name is Data. In the interest of putting this announcement in the proper context, it seems wisest that I begin by explaining that I am an android. As such, I possess the ability to accurately record and recall any information to which I am exposed. Some of you may be aware that, during our time in Squall Asylum, we made use of this in order to record information in the absence of any other means by which to do so.

Though we have since returned to MarinaNova, I have agreed to continue doing so in order to gradually compile an organized database of our working knowledge that we can search, compare, reference, and update. While I will still be taking reports personally, I will also be constructing a computer system with which I am capable of interfacing to store and to provide access to these files to all team members for their own investigative research purposes. This will take some time with the materials which are available to us, but I believe it is possible. This would prevent any loss of information were I to become lost, or damaged.

If anyone has any input, suggestions, or questions regarding this project, or would be interested in assisting, I would be most welcoming of any cooperation.

I hope that you do not mind my contacting you directly. It was suggested by Doctor Reid that I initiate a conversation with you, specifically regarding what he described as your attempts to compile an encyclopedia of available knowledge on the facility. He believes that we may benefit from coordinating our efforts and possibly integrating all of our information into a single database with various levels of access as would apply to that which is restricted to the Investigative Team, and that which is available for public perusal. I would be happy to work cooperatively on this endeavor, if you wish.


[ open in dome / potential trekpartment action ]

[ After making the post, Data busies himself looking into the technology and components which are available and gauging their potential usefulness. He's built devices out of objects far less advanced, but he believes he may still have to request some items from the wardens. Somehow, he has his doubts about how well that will go. So the more he can manage to do with what they have available to them, the better.

At the same time, there is another matter on his mind - Geordi has had a couple of days to become accustomed to his surroundings and seems to be adjusting well. Probably a good time to properly introduce Annika in context of their relationship, at the next point they're all together. Ah. Anxiety. Still a curious sensation. ]

Huh? Oh, wiki-- short for wikipedia, that type of online encyclopedia. It allows editing by registered members for stores of information put forward by users and peer collaboration. It's pretty funky, though there are idiots who sometimes ruin a good thing. [Anyone who vandalizes her baby though is going to get a Real Life kicking.]

I'd be down for it, lemme know what I can do and I'll make sure things are in check.

I see. An intriguing concept - allowing for open contributions would be beneficial to furthering knowledge and spreading an awareness of that information among those present. Am I correct in assuming there are measures in place to prevent misinformation being contributed, either intentionally or otherwise?

I will be certain to keep you informed of my progress.

Eh, good old fashioned moderation. I don't expect a lot of trolling though, if that's your issue-- not when I can track the vandalizing party down with a few clicks of my hand. The internet's freedom of anonymity isn't here, so I'm hoping people don't act like jerks.
