I have promoted you to the Wikinews:Editor class, as I feel you can be trusted to mark revisions of articles as sighted (review). Take a moment to read:

• Wikinews:Flagged revisions
• Wikinews:Reviewing articles
• {{Peer review}}
• {{Review}}
• Reviewed article version
• Flagged Revisions extension information, on MediaWiki

If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask for help on my talk page, and thank you for contributing to Wikinews!

Bombing of Peshawar Pearl Continental Hotel in Pakistan kills 18

Hello there - left on a note on the talk page of this article. If you could direct me to the citation, or re-word, it should be OK to review.SriMesh | talk 04:13, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

Also, please don't site articles that haven't been published. I know that's an easy mistake to make as I've done it myself. Thanks. Calebrw (talk) 13:12, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

In response to your question here: I think Calebrw made a typo when writing the above comment and intended to say "sight" instead of "site". I think what he was trying to say was that you should not use the sighting tool to flag articles that haven't yet been published. This is because it makes it more difficult for non-editors to edit the page (because it creates separate stable and draft pages, which can be confusing). Cheers, Tempodivalse [talk] 03:09, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Tempo's hit the head on the mark. Calebrw (talk) 03:58, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Can you help me with "British Climatic Research Unit's emails hacked"?

I am new to Wikinews, and I need help. I've done everything the to-do list of the talk page of this article offered. Gryllida (talk) 22:46, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for some rewrite and publishing! Gryllida (page, talk, contributions) 00:29, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

• Please note that reviewing and publishing should be done by enabling the ezpeerreview gadget in your user preferences. This handles the process of putting the review template on the article's talk page, correcting the templates on the article, creating a redirect for Google News to index, and sighing the appropriate pages. It appeared this article was not sighted. --Brian McNeil / ^talk 01:12, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

I'll add something about the Gadget where appropriate. It should not be mandatory that people use it; unfortunately, actually publishing a story and getting it indexed elsewhere without it is quite laborious. However, I was rather more concerned this morning when I looked at your story about the Kentucky census worker — you put the date in completely wrong. It is done with the {{date}} template, not by using wikicode to make a piece of text appear in bold. --Brian McNeil / ^talk 11:34, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

privs

Busy elsewhere? We understand, but this is a notice of privilege expiry!

Note! Your privileges on English Wikinews have been reduced.

Under the Privilege expiry policy (enacted October 13, 2012) the rights held by your user account have been reduced due to inactivity, or lack of privilege use. You can view your user rights log here.

Point 4 of the Privilege expiry policy provides for fast-tracking reacquisition of privileges. We all understand that real-life commitments can severely curtail the level of commitment you can give to Wikinews; the privilege reduction is in no way intended as a reflection on your past work, or to imply you are unwelcome. The aim in curtailing privileges is to address security risks, and concern that a long period of inactivity means you may not be up-to-date with current policy and practices.
