Welcome to Wikinews! Thanks for creating Bombs in Sri-lanka, we need more articles like this. There are a few issues that must be dealt with before it can be published. The most important is that it currently only contains a bare minimum of information. Wikinews articles should be comprehensive. Try to answer the questions of who, what, where, when, why and how. Remember that your article will be read by people who may not know anything about the topic. You may find the Style guide and Content guide to be helpful.

Discussion about your article will occur on the article talk page. Please go there to start or participate in the discussion with other Wikinews contributors. Keep at it and try to get this article published. Getting news stories that interest you published at Wikinews can sometimes be difficult, but you will find that it is worth the effort. Please also ensure your article citest all sources it uses. &mdash;Bawolff ☺☻ 05:22, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Our key policies - if you read anything, read these! Here a few pointers to help you get to know Wikinews: There are always things to do on Wikinews: By the way, you can sign your name on Talk pages using four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ), 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! Bawolff ☺☻ 05:22, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
