Welcome

Lahiru k, welcome to Wikinews! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Our key policies - if you read anything, read these!

• Wikinews:Neutral point of view - tell every side to a story in a fair and balanced way
• Wikinews:Cite sources - everything in a Wikinews article must be sourced

Here a few pointers to help you get to know Wikinews:

• Wikinews:Introduction - overview of the site
• Wikinews:Writing an article - how to write and publish a complete article
• Wikinews:Content guide - what's suitable for Wikinews
• Wikinews:Contents - the contents page.

There are always things to do on Wikinews:

• Existing articles need expanding and checking for spelling and mistakes
• The front page lead articles often need updating
• Developing stories need finishing and publishing
• Discussions need your input
• If you're interested in audio recordings, Audio Wikinews could always use more contributers
• And of course, stories need writing!

By the way, you can sign your name on Talk pages using four tildes (~~~~), which produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, you can ask them at the water cooler or to anyone on the Welcommittee, or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome! DragonFire1024 21:19, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Sources

I have listed on the articles talk page a better way to list your sources for the Sri Lankan Special Task Force offensive in Eastern Province. Just click on discussion at the top and it will show you what you need to do for the sources. If you need anymore help please feel free to ask :) DragonFire1024 21:19, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your warm welcome and offering your help. Lahiru k 21:21, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

No problem :) I hope that you become a regular writer/editor on Wikinews. I hope you stay :) DragonFire1024 21:23, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Why not? :-D Lahiru k 21:26, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Good question ;-) DragonFire1024 21:26, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

:-) Yeah I'll write to Wikinews like my these edits in English Wikipedia [1]. Lahiru k 21:30, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

I am not sure. I mostly only edit Wikinews and Wikimedia Commons. DragonFire1024 23:22, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
