Welcome[edit]
EJVargas, welcome to Wikinews! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
Our key policies - if you read anything, read these!
- Wikinews:Neutral point of view - tell every side to a story in a fair and balanced way
- Wikinews:Cite sources - everything in a Wikinews article must be sourced
Here a few pointers to help you get to know Wikinews:
- Wikinews:Introduction - overview of the site
- Wikinews:Writing an article - how to write and publish a complete article
- Wikinews:Content guide - what's suitable for Wikinews
- Wikinews:Contents - the contents page.
There are always things to do on Wikinews:
- Existing articles need expanding and checking for spelling and mistakes
- The front page lead articles often need updating
- Developing stories need finishing and publishing
- Discussions need your input
- Audio Wikinews could always use more contributors
- And of course, stories need writing!
By the way, you can sign your name on Talk pages using four tildes (~~~~), which produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, you can ask them at the water cooler or to anyone on the Welcommittee, or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome!–Doldrums(talk) 04:32, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
Welcome back[edit]
EJVargas, hello. I like the Fortuño article, and want to see it published while it is still fresh news, so I reviewed and copy-edited it. I am delighted to see you have added another paragraph. Please change the develop tag to review when you have finished work and are ready for a 'sub-editor' to review your new work and hopefully publish it to the front page. --InfantGorilla (talk) 16:00, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
Are you ready for it to be reviewed for publication yet? --InfantGorilla (talk) 16:27, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
I was offline for 24 hours. I just published your article.
For future articles, you can place the {{review}} tag when you think you are finished. I only came back to Wikinews a few days ago, but I think with the 'review' tag, someone will review and publish your article in a few hours, or at least give you ideas to improve your article.
Hope you are enjoying the ride here. I see you got published at Spanish Wikinews 2 days earlier: congratulations.
