Welcome

Loco085, 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
• Audio Wikinews could always use more contributors
• 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!--MarkTalk to me 19:35, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

You can find it at WN:AR. --Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 19:50, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I will need a picture of you. The rest of the information I can receive from WN:CV. I'll also need Photoshop for Mac, seeing as I recently decided to make my MacBook my fulltime computer, but don't worry about that. →MR 16:26, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Who's they? How did they help? →MR 02:54, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

In any case, I can give you an ID once you e-mail me an accurate picture of yourself to messedrocker at gmail dot com. →MR 04:49, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Accreditation Expiration

Greetings, I wanted to let you know that our policy regarding accreditation has recently changed slightly. Specifically we've enacted an automatic expiration of accreditation after 2 years. You can very easily "re-up" your accreditation should you choose to, but at this point in time you're on the Inactive list. As such your accreditation will automatically be revoked on March 15th unless you request otherwise. Currently, posting to the following thread will keep your accreditation. At a later date, all Accredited reporters will be put in for that "re-up", at which time you'll be notified. Thank you, and should you have any questions, feel free to contact me on my talk page. --ShakataGaNai ^{^_^} 20:33, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
