{{editprotected}} There's a typo, "Juyt". I'd like to fix it but I don't seem to have the permissions to despite 10,000 edits on Wikipedia… Robby.is.on (talk) 10:40, 1 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for reporting the typo. By the way, your edits on Wikipedia has nothing to do to edit a protected page on any project if you don't have the rights.

Okay, thanks. Just seems baffling. Robby.is.on (talk) 10:49, 1 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Robby.is.on: A news article is a snapshot in time; it's what the story looked like when it had just happened. There's a grace period of 24 hours after publication when substantive changes can still be made to the article, then only trivial stuff that doesn't change the meaning (like this typo), and after a week or a bit more the article is fully protected and further changes have to go through the intermediary of an admin. Another-language Wikinews recently got into bad trouble, with massive (and possibly irreversible) damage by a vandal, because it didn't fully protect its archives. The relevant policy page here is WN:ARCHIVE. --Pi zero (talk) 11:44, 1 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
Thanks a lot for the explanation. Makes sense! :-) Robby.is.on (talk) 17:28, 1 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
