Talk:Bush nominates Harriet Ellan Miers for U.S. Supreme Court
Oh sheesh. {{WP:NFN}}
We need some subdivision of the developing stories, peoplewill be clicking this thinking it has already happened.
- Please sign your comments (using --~~~~). This "story" is properly tagged with the {{prepare}} tag and appears in a seperate area of the workspace. I would not be opposed to moving the listing of prepared stories to a seperate page under the Wikinews namespace -- there is already Wikinews:Story preparation page, but those stories appear to be of a more distant nature. --Chiacomo (talk) 22:07, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

- Yeah, I was just thinking of having two boxes, one for stuff which could theoretically be published now, and another for other things like evergreen. - Nyarlathotep 14:29, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
- Amazingly, this prepared story thing worked just as intended for this article. Outline, background, etc. develops into a full story pretty quickly. Wikinews rocks. --Chiacomo (talk) 22:39, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] U.S. President Bush...
Who in their right mind the world over, being at least nominally or minimally aware, does NOT know that "Bush" is the President of the United States of America? Thus, it is unnecessary to write "U.S. President Bush" on ANY headlines.
Surely Iraqis, Israelis, Chinese, English, Irish, Sudanese, Chilean, Afghani, Australian, Vietnamese, Canadian, Mexican, Grecian, Italian, Namibian, Georgian, Russian, French, German, Swiss, Saudis, Bosnians, Cubans, Costa Ricans, Czechans, Egyptians, El Salvadorans, Spanish, Indians, Pakistanis, Guatemalans, Haitians, Indonesians, Icelanders, Kuwaitis, Japanese, Jordanians, Peruvian, Koreans, Nepalese, Serbians, Montenegrans, Slovakians, Slovenians, Swedes, Thais, Turks and others know who "Bush" is!
Therefore, writing "U.S. President Bush" is unecessary. "Bush" will suffice.
