Re: Samsung unveils the Galaxy Buds and the Galaxy Buds30
Please add a second source it is required for publication. Please also check the article layout: the first paragraph should answer the 5Ws.

Please resolve this, and just ask if you need any help.

 * I think the 'when' is still missing in the current revision.
 * Also the last sentence of the first paragraph is an opinion. Please note that we can not write it in Wikinews' own voice; instead you could for instance write Elina Vives, Samsung's senior director of marketing, remarked that "Samsung needs to increase the wireless headphone ecosystem."

 * It could also be relevant to know how many people attended the event. Gryllida (talk) 02:38, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Sorry, one more thing: both provided sources are 404 (not found) for me, and rather strangely are dated with the future. Did the unpacking already occur? Gryllida (talk) 02:41, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Indeed. Both sources are 404-not-found, with no sign of either of them via internet search engine.  And the article not only claims that something happens more than three months from now, but it dates the source articles as being published in the future.  I too would like to hear an explanation of this; I would otherwise be inclined to delete it. --Pi zero (talk) 02:57, 27 April 2019 (UTC)

Question
Hi Gryllida,

I finally resolved all of those issues. P.S. It is not a hoax or an April Fools' joke.

Explanation
I would like to explain that it is real and not a hoax or a joke. AlviZoman30 (talk) 02:59, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks, links to sources are 'not found' though, how to address this?
 * And is the event in the future?

Question
Hi Gryllida,

Even though the event is in the future, it is still real and rumors say that Samsung has such events every year.

--AlviZoman30 (talk) 11:58, 27 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Wikinews articles are about events in the recent past, which must be verified. For example, if a planned future event is announced, and there is news coverage of the announcement from multiple news services, that would be a suitable focus for a Wikinews article.  You are not describing any focal event in the past at all, and you have provided no evidence whatever to support your claims. --Pi zero (talk) 12:46, 27 April 2019 (UTC)


 * I'm open to discussing this, but until we've cleared up the questions surrounding the status of this story, I'm taking down the draft article. It can be undeleted if we establish it's viable. --Pi zero (talk) 12:54, 27 April 2019 (UTC)

Apology
I apologize for the advertising/spam. Please restore the deleted article. AlviZoman30 (talk) 12:57, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
 * As I said above, we need to discuss this. You haven't provided any documentation whatsoever to support your claims about this future event; you just keep saying it's not a hoax.  You haven't even tried to identify a past event, suitable as the focus of a Wikinews article. --Pi zero (talk) 13:05, 27 April 2019 (UTC)

Discussion
I am sorry for real. I promise not to do that again creating future news articles or else I will be blocked. I am a Wikipedia sockpuppet of Alvi Z., so I could be globally blocked as well. AlviZoman30 (talk) 13:14, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Some notes: This user's main account, , was globally locked a little over a year ago for long-term abuse.  This account was created today (UTC), and while activity here on Wikinews was limited to the one draft and a certain obtuseness, on Wikipedia they immediately put up a user page saying they were there to "make hoax articles and vandalize Wikipedia".  They were blocked on Wikipedia about twelve hours later, and within an hour after that this account was globally locked.  Between the local block and global lock, they requested unblock, part of their stated reason being "I just came here to create hoaxes".  The articles they created were on the two products described in the Wikinews draft. --Pi zero (talk) 14:17, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
