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
• 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! Bawolff ☺☻ 21:06, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

Those images arn't at commons yet. They just have to get moved to eventually. You can link to an image at commons the same way as any other image. Unprotecting football.css. Bawolff ☺☻ 17:38, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

Images from BBC

Sorry, BBC images are copyright - not "released for use in news articles". I'll let you clean up the links to it before I delete it. --Brian McNeil / ^talk 12:51, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

I've taken out the image, you could do a version of the Wikinews logo with a football instead of a world map for when you can't find a usable image. --Brian McNeil / ^talk 13:02, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
