Welcome

Welcome to Wikinews

Getting started as a contributor How to write an article Pick something current? Use two independent sources? Read your sources before writing the story in your own words?. Do choose a unique title? before you start. Follow Wikinews' structure? for articles, answering as many of who what when where why and how? as you can; summarised in a short, two- or three-sentence opening paragraph. Once complete, your article must be three or more paragraphs. If you need help, you can add {{helpme}} to your talkpage, along with a question, or alternatively, just ask? Use this tab to enter your title and get a basic article template. [RECOMMENDED. Starts your article through the semi-automated {{develop}}—>{{review}}—>{{publish}} collaboration process.]

Welcome! Thank you for joining Wikinews; we'd love for you to stick around and get more involved. To help you get started we have an essay that will guide you through the process of writing your first full article. There are many other things you can do on the project, but its lifeblood is new, current, stories written neutrally. As you get more involved, you will need to look into key project policies and other discussions you can participate in; so, keep this message on this page and refer to the other links in it when you want to learn more, or have any problems.

All Wikimedia projects have rules. Here are ours. Listed here are the official policies of the project, you may be referred to some of them if your early attempts at writing articles don't follow them. Don't let this discourage you, we all had to start somewhere. The rules and guides laid out here are intended to keep content to high standards and meet certain rules the Wikimedia Foundation applies to all projects. It may seem like a lot to read, but you do not have to go through it all in one sitting, or know them all before you can start contributing. Remember, you should enjoy contributing to the project. If you're really stuck come chat with the regulars. There's usually someone in chat who will be happy to help, but they may not respond instantly.

The core policies Neutral point of view Cite sources Writing an article Content guide Style guide Reviewing articles

Places to go, people to meet Wiki projects work because a sense of community forms around the project. Although writing news is far more individualistic than contributing to Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, people often need minor help with things like spelling and copyediting. If a story isn't too old you might be able to expand it, or if it is disputed you may be able to find some more sources and rescue it before it is listed for deletion. There are always discussions going on about how the site could be improved, and your input is of value. Check the links here to see where you can give input to the running of the Wikinews project.

Suggestion

Would you be interested in running for sysop here since you have submitted many pages for speedy deletion? Perhaps you might be interested in deleting them straight away. Gryllida 13:11, 11 January 2026 (UTC)

Hello, I had several suggestions like this one (q:en:User_talk:MathXplore/2024#Thanks, m:Special:Diff/26786272, m:Special:Diff/29692874, m:Special:Diff/28572190, w:simple:Special:Diff/10190249, w:simple:Special:Diff/10191832, d:Special:Diff/2298041549 etc. and more in off-wiki discussions), and since my schedule is not stable enough to be responsive in an one-week debate, I am currently postponing all plans like these. I would like to revisit this after a reasonable amount of time. Thank you very much for the feedback. MathXplore (talk) 13:22, 11 January 2026 (UTC)

What would be reasonable amount of time for you? Would a month be suitable? Gryllida 16:42, 11 January 2026 (UTC)

I cannot expect my schedule to change in a month, so I think I should wait for more months or years. MathXplore (talk) 00:52, 12 January 2026 (UTC)
