Welcome
editMosesofmason, 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:Style guide - how articles should look before publishing
- 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! → CGorman (Talk) 20:18, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
find and talk me here :o)
lead story images
editno you made them too small the main page looks fine once i put them back to regular size.--Ryan524 21:24, 24 May 2005 (UTC)
wikinews leads
editThe instructions in the second lead clearly stated the suggested width was 180px, while reading through edits to the page it was clear the de facto standard was 120px. Your edit was non-standard, thus the initial revert. I have edited the instructions to reflect the actual use, and modified the image size to match. - Amgine/talk 21:25, 24 May 2005 (UTC)
