User talk:Obersachse
This is my talkpage. I don't visit Wikibooks too often, so if you need to contact me urgently, feel free to edit my Russian Wikipedia talk page in a language I know.
If you write me, you'll receive an answer here. If I write you, I will watch your talkpage for several days. Click here to leave me a message.
Welcome[edit]
Obersachse, 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! Adambro 14:44, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks, Adambro! I'm a newbe only in english wikinews, in ruwiki I'm an "old man" (bureaucrat). --Obersachse 14:56, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
- lol— Don't worry, we tend to give welcome messages to everyone, whether they need it or not (for example, Brion VIBBER). Anyways, welcome to wikinews. Just wanted to say hi, and thank you again for the permissions with the location map templates (slowly collecting them all). Happy editing. Bawolff ☺☻ 04:15, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
