The Wikinews Community
English Wikinews has about 35 very active editors (as of 2013). We range from journalists who write about very specific topics or geographic areas, to tehcnical people who support the project's backend systems like reviewing and template tools, to vandal fighters who monitor recent changes and remove spam, to reviewers who approve articles for publication, and to administrators who clean up messes and block disruptive editors—and many more roles.
What we have in common is that we care—often very deeply—about citizen run non-profit journalism. Although we come from different perspectives (and often disagree!) we're all here to try to publish news.
