Plane crashes off Catalina Island injures three, causes bush fire
I reviewed your article. Could you add a bit more so it can be published? Thanks, — Mike moral  ♪♫  01:10, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

WN:FR/RFP
I closed your request as not successful. Don't let it get you down though; your work in Wikinews is very appreciated, and for sure you will become a reviewer in the near future. Regards, Diego Grez return fire 15:40, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
 * No problem, there's always next time :). Thanks, Bobby122   Contact Me   (C)  15:42, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Article updates
Going from one dead, to ten dead is - in my mind - new news. That is, the update merits a new article.

Remember, Wikinews, not Wikipedia. Our articles are not works in progress, but a record of what was known at the time. Yes, there's the 24-48 hr rule for additional info. But, 10x the casualties qualifies as a new enough development to create a new article.

In any case, your enthusiasm is greatly appreciated. Keep up the good work and strive to learn from some of the 'ruthless' copyediting. --Brian McNeil / talk 07:05, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Post-publish sighting
Hi, congrats on getting reviewer.

Just as a FYI, all edits post-publish need manually re-sighted. I've done so for your tweaks to the organ donor jet crash, you could've sighted that one yourself.

Where you need to leave it to someone else is if you've added an additional source and/or substantially expanded an article. If you're unsure, pop into IRC and ask. --Brian McNeil / talk 11:18, 20 November 2010 (UTC)


 * I think Bobby's post-publication actions were correct. (Bobby122, congrats on reviewer!)  Two of the three edits were too substantive to self-sight.


 * I'm wondering about the pre-publish "additional source for additional confirmation" edit, but the place for that is article talk. --Pi zero (talk) 12:43, 20 November 2010 (UTC)


 * There was extra info introduced, so self-sighting would have been somewhat naughty. I'm very pleased to see in the edit history that you've picked up on pleonasm, though. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 12:54, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the congrats everyone! I added some content with some of the edits, which I thought it went against WN:ARCHIVE so I didn't self sight. Bobby122   Contact Me   (C)  16:50, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

Southwest Airlines story
On Southwest Airlines flight diverts due to 'rapid decompression in the cabin', I've posted a comment on the talk page. If you can respond with the source of the quote, it's otherwise ready for approval. —Tom Morris (talk) 08:15, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

privs
'''Note! Your privileges on English Wikinews have been reduced.'''
 * Under the Privilege expiry policy (enacted October 13, 2012) the rights held by your user account have been reduced due to inactivity, or lack of privilege use.


 * Point 4 of the Privilege expiry policy provides for fast-tracking reacquisition of privileges. We all understand that real-life commitments can severely curtail the level of commitment you can give to Wikinews; the privilege reduction is in no way intended as a reflection on your past work, or to imply you are unwelcome. The aim in curtailing privileges is to address security risks, and concern that a long period of inactivity means you may not be up-to-date with current policy and practices.
