Welcome

Shizhao, 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:Style guide - how articles should look before publishing
• 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! --Cspurrier 14:37, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

Categories/Portals

Hi there, you seem to be making portals, or rather interactive category pages. Could you read & join in the discussion on the Water Cooler before doing too much, as it's possible there are going to be changes to the way this is done and we'd been keen to hear your views. Also some of your changes might end up getting changed again, i've sort of frozen activities on this until there is a decision made in the watercooler ClareWhite 15:29, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

Interwiki on protected pages

Hi!

If you run into any protected pages you need zh interwiki links on, let me know and give me what has to be added. The one that immediately springs to mind is Template:Welcome - which doesn't desperately need an interwiki link, but for completeness should probably have one. --Brian McNeil / ^talk 17:15, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Regarding zh portal

Could you leave some edit summaries on your changes? Something akin to zh: would be fine, just so it's obvious what you're doing to the casual eye. Thanks! ironiridis 17:15, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
