Just wondering[edit]
This is the second time I've seen this:
"Edits will be incorporated into the stable version once an established user reviews them..."
What's the purpose of this? How do you qualify as an "established user"? What is this? -- Poe Joe (Talk) 00:47, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
- We are hoping to provide news that is devoid of vandalism. The previous lack of editorial control prevented Wikinews articles from being listed at news-aggregators such as Google News. For specifics about this user class you may want to read Wikinews:Editor, however it is rather new and not all aspects have been worked out yet.--SVTCobra 01:30, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
The Headline[edit]
The length is probably unnecessary. "Campaign offices for John McCain evacuated" would have sufficed.--71.82.81.238 06:33, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
- That title would assume that all his offices were evacuated, which in this case, only two were evacuated. its the Who what and where. DragonFire1024 (Talk to the Dragon) 19:04, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
US Biased[edit]
There is considerable US bias in this story. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.245.186.56 (talk) 18:31, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
- Its a US story about a potential US president where the incidents happened in US states...How can this article include foreign relations? You cannot have a US biased on a US story IMO. DragonFire1024 (Talk to the Dragon) 19:03, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
- We could, for example, highlight Germany's response to this evacuation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.245.186.56 (talk) 20:06, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
- Germany? Why? and why would they have anything to say about this? DragonFire1024 (Talk to the Dragon) 20:20, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
- We could also state the the Office of the Prime Minister of Canada has apologized for the situation. I don't know if they have, but they seem to issue random apologies on a regular basis, so it's a fair bet that we could find a generic one to fit this situation.
