Talk:Wikinews interviews Jim Hedges, U.S. Prohibition Party presidential candidate

Not sure about the policy on interviews, but normally counts as a single source; shouldn't the interview itself be forwarded to scoop? — μ 18:58, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Give me an e-mail address and I will forward it.--William S. Saturn (talk) 18:59, 26 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Original reporting does not generally fall foul of the single source rules. This is especially true with interviews except for items supplementary to the interview - such as the lede.
 * A section on the talk page for original reporting notes is mandatory. Detail research, supplementary information sources, and so on. Where interview work is involved, summarise who interviewed, how, and when. Email interviews can be forwarded to scoop [at] wikinewsie.org. If this is done, say so in the OR notes section you add to the talk.
 * HTH. --Brian McNeil / talk 19:28, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
 * The e-mail has been sent.--William S. Saturn (talk) 19:34, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

When is the election this guy ran in/may run in? --Brian McNeil / talk 19:31, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

United States presidential election, 2012 --William S. Saturn (talk) 19:34, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

Possible Error
Is the Prohibition Party the "third oldest existing political party" (as stated in this article) or the "oldest existing third party in the US" (as stated in the Wikipedia 'Prohibition Party' article)?


 * 1) Wikipedia is not a reliable source
 * 2) These two are not mutually exclusive and, indeed,
 * 3) It is both third oldest and oldest third.
