Hi,

Thanks for creating articles. Did you know that you can easily create an account on Wikinews without giving any personal information (even an email address). If you do this will be able to move pages and update the main 4 leads.

Thanks for your time,

We are not hurting for story ideas. Perhaps instead of just starting stories, you could pick one or two and develop them more fully. Cheers, --SVTCobra 00:21, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just a quick note - on Wikinews:Requested articles it points out:

  • You need to add a good description for your story.
  • You need to add at least two sources.

A description is more than just a title, and your submissions have all included only one source. Multiple sources are needed to verify the information, and to make sure that we aren't just getting one point of view. The more information you provide, the easier you make it for others to write the article - you wouldn't just go up to the editor of the New York Times and say "You should write an article on event X. kthxbai," would you?
