IV
Community decision
The request must remain open for at least seven days for a new request or fourteen days for revocation. Other users may {{support}} or {{oppose}} the request.
At the end of the minimum period, the request will be closed and the accreditation or revocation will be confirmed, if there is consensus.
In the case of revocation a request may be closed early, but no earlier than 7 days, when there is overwhelming consensus.
Once accredited, you can get a personal email address on WN-Reporters. Please contact acagastya or Gryllida about this. Your email address will be made up based on the details given when applying. If you have a middle name and you feel having this in the address (or its initial) is important, please say so.
You must either provide an existing email address for the password to be sent to, or have enabled email from your en.wikinews account and specify this as the preferred contact method.
For further information, contact an active, established, already-accredited user. Requests for an email address must be verifiable — either submit via 'email this user', or signed and on the talk pages of Acagastya or Gryllida.
Cards
In addition to a wn-reporters.org email address, accredited reporters may — at their own expense — obtain a stock of business cards clearly indicating they are an accredited reporter. You can see a sample here. (Note: degraded to a quality that prevents use.)
