Wikinews:Focus
(Redirected from Wikinews:FOCUS)
A Wikinews article is built around a focus — a news event or phenomenon that is specific, relevant, and fresh. The headline tells the most important and unique thing about the focus. The lede briefly summarizes the focus, by succinctly answering as many as reasonably possible of the basic questions about the focus. The remainder of the article, after the lede, proceeds in inverted pyramid style to give further details and background about the focus. The focus is what it all relates to.
