The PoliceWiki is a project created for all Police fans, with the goal of documenting the band's history in a format that is open to everyone for contributions of knowledge, reference materials, and experiences as fans of The Police, Andy Summers, Stewart Copeland and Sting.
There is a wealth of Police and Police-related information on the internet that has been assembled and generated by a number of dedicated and hardworking people through the years. But the difficulty is that information on the band -- its history, its members, its accomplishments -- is spread all over the place: a timeline of events over here; a discography over there; a list of related solo efforts elsewhere. There is also useful information scattered throughout decades of magazine articles and interviews easily lost track of through time.
The goal of the PoliceWiki is to make it possible to discover such information quickly and easily, to serve as a quick reference source in which various types of information relevant to the band have been brought together into a single repository, and to make it so that information can easily expanded upon by anyone who has details to add.
Please see PoliceWiki:About for more information on the history, goals, and approach of the project, and our Help pages for specific details on getting started.
