Wikinews Writing contest 2013 is here. :) Please sign up to participate?
We've created the Writing contest 2013, which will start on April 1 and end on June 1. It is modeled on the successful 2010 contest. Unlike the previous version, points are available for people who conduct reviews. (With a University of Wollongong class currently contributing articles, extra assistance is appreciated at this time.) It presents a great incentive for you to renew your reviewing chops, contribute some original reporting not being done by the main stream media, and write some synthesis articles on topics that could use more attention. People should be around to review to prevent a backlog if you just want to write, and several reviewers have access to scoop to make it easier to review any original reporting you do. If you are interested in signing up, please do so on Writing contest 2013/entrants. There is at least one prize on offer for the winner along with the opportunity to earn some barn stars as a way of thanking you for your participation. :D --LauraHale (talk) 10:35, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

Reviewer
Hello. I note that your account has the reviewer permission. I cannot see a reason for this. There is no archived request for the permission nor any note on Special:UserRights about when or why the permission was added to your account. Could you shine a light on this matter? Since you don’t seem to have ever edited here, I can’t imagine you were ever aware of it but I thought it would be polite to ask first. If there is no particular reason to keep it, I will remove the reviewer permission from your account in two weeks. Cheers. [24Cr][talk] 15:01, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

'''Note! Your Wikinews permission(s) have been removed.'''
 * Under the permission expiry policy (enacted October 13, 2012) the permissions held by your account have been reduced due to inactivity, or lack of use.


 * Section 4 of the policy provides for fast-tracking reacquisition of permissions. We all understand that real-life commitments can severely curtail the level of commitment you can give to Wikinews; the permission reduction is not intended as a reflection on your past work, or to imply you are unwelcome. The aim in curtailing permissions is to address, and concern that a long period of inactivity means you may not be up-to-date with current policy and practices.
