From Wikinews, the free news source you can write!

I have not left the project. I am still very much alive. I am perfectly swamped with work stuff right now. I hope to get back into the swing of things in a couple of weeks or so. Other Reviewers/Admins will have to step in for a little while.--Bddpaux (talk) 14:34, 20 September 2024 (UTC)


News is the first draft of history.


Absolutely free advice for any new writers here:

[These are statements of opinion, wrought by many years of experience here and are NOT official policy.]

  • Always remember: We attempt to speak to an international audience. That doesn't mean that an event/story which occurred 4 blocks away from your house isn't valuable... it may be! But articles should appeal to a large scale of English speaking readers.
  • I live by this rule about articles/submissions here: Get it, write it, submit it, move on. You'll be helping yourself if you adopt that motto too. At times, an unpublished article might need to be refreshed with more up-to-date information (known as 'gatwicking'). No big deal. However, sometimes: it's just time to move on from a potential story. There is ALWAYS plenty of news to be published.
  • Lastly, are you trying to submit self-aggrandizing fluffery that gratifies you and exalts your name/interests/hobbies/business/accomplishments, or are you here to function as a journalist? We value the latter much more than the former.
