For use on the Wikipedia Signpost[edit]

I agree to dual license my contributions to this article under the GFDL Anonymous101 :) 20:06, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I was under the impression that cc-by 2.5 is one way compatible with the GFDL (meaning anything thats cc-by 2.5 could also be gfdl)? Bawolff 05:16, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I think 3.0 is, but not 2.5 Anonymous101 :) 06:23, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikinews or Signpost?[edit]

Is this really worthy of a Wikinews article? This seems more suited to the Wikipedia Signpost. Adambro (talk) 20:09, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think this is an intresting incident Anonymous101 :) 20:10, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see why this wouldn't be news. We have reported on threats of this nature before. So I see no issues with it. DragonFire1024 (Talk to the Dragon) 22:01, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
In the most recent example I understand a school was evacuated. Has anything come of this threat? Are the authorities treating this seriously? Until these questions are answered it seems a little premature to be writing articles about this. I suspect this isn't exactly an uncommon incident. Adambro (talk) 22:06, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure...Would have to ask anonymous that. I was not a contributer in this report...but good questions. DragonFire1024 (Talk to the Dragon) 22:08, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Media mention[edit]

So far as I can tell this has not yet been reported in main stream media / secondary sources. Will keep a lookout for it though. Cirt (talk) 01:54, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
