Questions[edit]

  • Your passion may have shifted from Wikipedia to Wikinews, but why do you need Accreditation to do contribute? I have been on Wikinews for 12+ years and contributed news, even original reporting, all without Accreditation. You must demonstrate a need and base line of understanding Wikinews as a project. We do not hand out these credentials like candy. --SVTCobra 20:33, 22 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comments[edit]

  • Wikinews accreditation is extended to someone we trust and whom we expect to use the accreditation to contribute to Wikinews. You express no interest in contributing here, and in any case you have not attempted to do so and, thus, have neither demonstrated interest in contributing here, nor earned reputation to support your claim on our trust. A request for accreditation is premature. See Wikinews:Pillars of writing, and consider attempting either a synthesis article or, conceivably, a photo essay. --Pi zero (talk) 17:34, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Clarification: You should not be asking for accreditation now, before you've done anything here. You should contribute for a while; write articles; get to know Wikinews writing, while the Wikinews community gets to know you; and then perhaps, it will be time for you to apply for accreditation. --Pi zero (talk) 03:24, 12 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I am copying a question/answer I put up at user's talk page:

'I noticed that you are seeking accreditation here. Have you contributed here in the past few weeks??--Bddpaux (talk) 19:59, 22 August 2019 (UTC)


Bddpaux, Only just one have published while other has drafted.' --Bddpaux (talk) 17:57, 27 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • I am going to say some things here and I hope you do not find them offensive (as they are not meant to be). Yours is a common situation we face here. You come here, do a few small things, then quickly ask for accreditation. It appears that you have vanished from this project. There are MANY THINGS one can do here (and in the journalistic world-at-large) without being accredited. You come here, asking us to give, while seemingly being unwilling to give of yourself to this project. We need doers here.....not takers. I promise you: I'm not trying to scold you.......I mean that. I have learned some incredible things here: my writing has improved 200% since I joined this project. Yes, in the early days: I got my feelings hurt, got offended, whined and had a couple of (minor) tantrums, but ALWAYS CAME BACK. A wiki is a community......you give (a lot) and you take (a little)......that is how it works. Wikinews has opened AMAZING DOORS for me. I have met (IRL) some awesome people while conducting interviews, etc. Those doors can open for you too if you are willing to DO THINGS, not just talk. If you really want to be a part of what is happening here, I welcome you (and so do many others). I will help you. I will encourage you (and have tried to do just that)....but you have to stick with it. We really are a pretty friendly, cooperative bunch here...I mean that. It's too early for us to extend acceditation to you. Come back, do a little editing on developing articles: drop in a comma here, take out a couple of strange words there.....that kind of stuff. Just plain, mundane work: that is a lot of what journalism is. I hope to see your work soon! --Bddpaux (talk) 16:49, 4 September 2019 (UTC).[reply]
  • Hello guys (Pi zero, Bddpaux, synthesis, Cobra)! I'm asking to limit this comment because this is old one. I have requested this accreditation when I firstly met Wikinews without knowledge on the Pillars of writing and other important details, sorry for that because I haven't read anything here before this request. I understand you guys. If possible, can anybody remove this accreditation? I feel uncomfortable after my words here and this request. -_-' I am busy for this time taking my graduate study. I'll be working for this community, the Wikinews, sooner as a matured volunteer and please expect me as new like you. Wiki is really an amazing community, I can prove that. --Dehgel (talk) 16:49, 12 September 2019 (UTC).[reply]
