Welcome

Roninbk, 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! --Anonymous101 (talk · contribs) 18:19, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Duplicate

Please be awware that an article about the death of Sci-fi author Arthur C Clarke has alreay been written. --Anonymous101 (talk · contribs) 18:19, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Apologies, I didn't see this article in a quick scan of the front page or in the Development list, so I thought it wasn't done yet. (Isn't "Visionary" POV though?) --RoninBK - (talk) 18:24, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Yes, visionary is POV. Don;t worry about creating a duplicate, I've done it lots of times. --Anonymous101 (talk · contribs) 18:25, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

I'm no longer sure visionary is POV in the context it is used. --Anonymous101 (talk · contribs) 18:27, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Neither here nor there as far as I am concerned. I've redirected my page to the existing one, and added my sources to it. Cheers --RoninBK - (talk) 18:29, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks

Nice catch on the grammar, This is my first breaking news story I've been involved in, doing my best to catch the errors as I go. --RoninBK - (talk) 01:40, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

No worries. Thank you for contributing this story. We need more if we are going to succeed. --SVTCobra 01:54, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
