Welcome to Wikinews

Getting started as a contributor How to write an article Pick something current? Use two independent sources? Read your sources before writing the story in your own words?. Do choose a unique title? before you start. Follow Wikinews' structure? for articles, answering as many of who what when where why and how? as you can; summarised in a short, two- or three-sentence opening paragraph. Once complete, your article must be three or more paragraphs. If you need help, you can add {{helpme}} to your talkpage, along with a question, or alternatively, just ask? Use this tab to enter your title and get a basic article template. [RECOMMENDED. Starts your article through the semi-automated {{develop}}—>{{review}}—>{{publish}} collaboration process.]

Welcome! Thank you for joining Wikinews; we'd love for you to stick around and get more involved. To help you get started we have an essay that will guide you through the process of writing your first full article. There are many other things you can do on the project, but its lifeblood is new, current, stories written neutrally. As you get more involved, you will need to look into key project policies and other discussions you can participate in; so, keep this message on this page and refer to the other links in it when you want to learn more, or have any problems.

All Wikimedia projects have rules. Here are ours. Listed here are the official policies of the project, you may be referred to some of them if your early attempts at writing articles don't follow them. Don't let this discourage you, we all had to start somewhere. The rules and guides laid out here are intended to keep content to high standards and meet certain rules the Wikimedia Foundation applies to all projects. It may seem like a lot to read, but you do not have to go through it all in one sitting, or know them all before you can start contributing. Remember, you should enjoy contributing to the project. If you're really stuck come chat with the regulars. There's usually someone in chat who will be happy to help, but they may not respond instantly.

Places to go, people to meet Wiki projects work because a sense of community forms around the project. Although writing news is far more individualistic than contributing to Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, people often need minor help with things like spelling and copyediting. If a story isn't too old you might be able to expand it, or if it is disputed you may be able to find some more sources and rescue it before it is listed for deletion. There are always discussions going on about how the site could be improved, and your input is of value. Check the links here to see where you can give input to the running of the Wikinews project.

Re: ford story

Hi 🙂

Can you please write it in your own words, including at least two sources and the date of the event?

Just a couple paragraphs would work well. 👍🏻✍️

Please let me know. I am happy to help.

Hi,

I work for an automotive media company, and i can only give them as source. Can't do other. 2409:40C0:11A9:B03F:7577:A7BA:5FD8:D459 (talk) 09:04, 17 September 2024 (UTC)

Are you paid to write the articles here? Gryllida (talk) 09:44, 18 September 2024 (UTC)

no JosephFernandes02 (talk) 10:08, 18 September 2024 (UTC)

May I invite you to Newsroom? We have currently around 1.5 reviewers here, meaning new articles are reviewed slowly. Your help with improving others' submissions is very welcome and may help get your article published quicker. The Newsroom lists the current drafts. They often have notes on their talk pages stating what questions or issues are awaiting someone's attention. (Please also check the talk pages of your articles regularly. Feedback may have been added recently and further editing may be desired.)

I am from Australia. Our timezones might be similar... Gryllida (talk) 10:13, 18 September 2024 (UTC)

Sure. I would love to be a part of it. JosephFernandes02 (talk) 10:20, 18 September 2024 (UTC)

Thank you 👍🏻

Please check date of event before you start writing. Events which happened over seven days ago are not news - they can not be published here.

Please do not copy paste from external websites. It is illegal to do this for copyright reasons,unless the external source is released under a licence which is compatible with the crewtive commons licence that Wikinews is using.

Let me know how I can help you with editing. Gryllida (talk) 10:27, 18 September 2024 (UTC)

I've the permission from them to post news. JosephFernandes02 (talk) 11:03, 18 September 2024 (UTC)

I've expanded this one: Ford Motor Company announces plans to repurpose Chennai plant in Tamil, southern India for global exports. -- Gryllida (talk) 10:53, 18 September 2024 (UTC)

ok. is it visible? JosephFernandes02 (talk) 04:16, 24 September 2024 (UTC)

It is here, was not published because it got stale. It takes two reviewers to run a site, with one reviewer there are situations when after extensive editing there is no additional other person to do the review.

If successful then there will be update about what and when Ford will start doing there.

I welcome you to visit Newsroom and edit anything. Check dates. Maybe if it happened less than two days ago then it can be good editing material with a chance of publishing.

I enjoyed writing with you, if there is something new in your region that happened within a day or two, I am happy to write together with you again. Gryllida (talk) 12:26, 24 September 2024 (UTC)

would love to as well. JosephFernandes02 (talk) 05:33, 26 September 2024 (UTC)

Greetings

Hi JosephFernandes02 :-)

New Maruti Suzuki S-CNG Launched! was deleted as abandoned. A few issues

• Article written Sep-17 sources dated Sep-12 -- not fresh
• First paragraph does not answer 5W and H.

Could you please write about an event which happened today and then on the article talk page add a ping (@Gryllida) and I will check it out. Gryllida (talk) 04:01, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

Ford Motor Company announces plans to repurpose Chennai plant in Tamil, southern India for global exports also deleted (despite you writing about it on the same day -- again this is very good -- despite my expanding it, another reviewer was not available...)

Could you please write a new article within next two days, I would be happy to help. Gryllida (talk) 04:09, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

P.S. Please consider joining live chat -- hang around there 24/7, don't close the chat window -- as then communication can happen more quickly and questions about an article can be answered way before the article becomes stale. Gryllida (talk) 04:26, 6 October 2024 (UTC)
