[edit]AnyFile, 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! Dan100 (Talk) 12:51, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
BTW can I invite you to add finished articles to the top of the list of articles that day? New entries are easier to see then :) Dan100 (Talk) 12:51, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Time conversion
[edit]Is it OK to remove NASA prepares to roll orbiter Discovery to launch pad from ongoing disputes now that I have explained the time conversion on the article's talk page?
If you find an error in the calculations, please let me know.
I added the "EDT" notation to the 12:01 time just to make it crystal clear that "12:01 EDT" is the time provided in the media release. — DV 14:27, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- I triple-checked this, and found that the time provided was not 24-hour time, but 12-hour time, 12:01 a.m.. I fixed the article to provide the time as "04:01 UTC".
- Thanks for being a stickler for details. I wouldn't want anyone to wake up to watch this event 12 hours after it was already over with! — DV 14:37, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Air allarm
[edit]I removed your headline because of the spelling error, and lack of any story (after 10 mins) which would support it being real. --Tom 21:31, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Hi AnyFile....
I've added the sources tag to this article because the three sources cited contain broken links. If you want to remove the sources tag please find some online sources (or original reporting) for the information contained in the article. If no sources are found this article will eventually be deleted. - Borofkin 04:27, 7 September 2005 (UTC)
