UFC 214: Jon Jones reclaims light heavyweight title against bitter rival Daniel Cormier with brutal TKO
Hi. Glad to see your interest in contributing to Wikinews. Our initial learning curve can be a bit steep, and we know it and try to help folks along with it; a good principle is to keep in mind that each article is a learning experience, especially the first few ones submitted: one does one's best on each article, learns what one can, and then, whatever the outcome for that article, one moves on &mdash; that's the nature of news, it keeps moving.

In this case, I noted some basic style problems, which I described in my review comments. Naturally, I don't know what other problems may have been lurking, that would become evident later in a full review. Alas, it also took the article longer to get reviewed than we would like; that does sometimes happen, even to experienced Wikinewsies, although, hopefully, once you get experienced at Wikinews writing so you're producing articles that look like they will be easy and rewarding to review, this increases the likelihood that the article will get reviewer attention sooner (though it's never a guarantee).

You may find WN:Pillars of Wikinews writing of interest. If you've worked with Wikipedia enough to identify with its workflow, you may find For Wikipedians of interest.

Football: Paris Saint-Germain pays world record €222m to sign Neymar
Congratulations! The article is published. Well, there is a scope of improvement, please see the edit history and talk page comments.
 * you for taking so much time to review the piece and will take note on the comments. Appreciate it.

Bayern vs Borussia DFL Supercup
Are you planning to write about Der Klassiker DFL Supercup? The match is tomorrow. I would be happy to review it as soon as possible. Just a suggestion, try to find those sources which would cover broader information so total number of sources could be minimised. Of course, if you can't find it in one, go for another. And maybe you might want to see some CAT:Football Match Reports for archived articles for help. Good luck! acagastya PING ME! 18:00, 4 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Will write it and thank you in advance for helping up.
 * Let me know if you are going to write. Else I would have to do it. (By the way, User:Ymnes of Dutch Wikinews told me about Netherlands vs Denmark UEFA Women's Euro 2017. You would like to write about?) (Also, Usain Bolt finished third in 100m race, that might interest you) Um, you should join Wikinews (and English Wikinews') IRC channel. That is #wikinews and #wikinews-en on freenode,net. (Just wondering if you use Telegram. We have a group for Wikinewsies) acagastya PING ME! 04:45, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
 * draft is up in development section. Need help to rework as I don't have in dept knowledge of thier rivalry history and the soccer report format. I am still editing it. You can have a look.CASSIOPEIA (talk) 06:10, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Okay. I will see. This would also act as the article which would help you learn how to write a match report. (Is the development on-wiki? I can't see it. Please share the link.) acagastya PING ME! 06:13, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Football: Bayern Munich beat Borrusia Dortmund on penalties (2-2) (5-4 penalty) to retain Supercup titl (it is a draft- a little messy still) CASSIOPEIA (talk) 06:16, 6 August 2017 (UTC)

Thank you for the link. By the way, I don't think we need to explain the whole lot of rivalry, as this is a match report. We can say it is "Der Klassiker (German classic), featuring two of the most successful clubs in Germany". That would suffice, I think. What do you say? (If you feel like cutting the history part, remove it. If you feel you want that in the article, then it is okay. But remember, we do not list the sources we have not used -- meaning, if you remove the history of rivalry, you need to remove the source which you had used for it) But, you could highlight about the recent transfers from Bayern and Borussia (Sebastian Rode, Mario Götze, Mats Hummels, Robert Lewandowski) acagastya PING ME! 06:41, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Do not forget to submit it for review once you are done. acagastya PING ME! 06:51, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
 * the rivalry story comes from only one source (Fox sport 2017) in sequential concise format, except Mario Gotze transfer fee (from Guardian 2013). I need help on the score card format, it does not look right and not sure how to format (own goal) in the table. T Move to review now. and thanks in advance. CASSIOPEIA (talk) 06:56, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Would you mind if I trim the rivalry part? I think it is really too much for a match report (we son;t even do that for El Clásico) Of course, you can say no. acagastya PING ME! 07:34, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
 * We could trim that or just mention a few points sum up the rivalry history. CASSIOPEIA (talk) 07:42, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Talking about Champions League final which happened in 2013 is really of no use, we can say about last year's DFB Pokal (Bayern defeated Dortmund) and DFL-Super Cup (Bayern defeated Dortmund) and Goetz, Hummels, and Rode switched the clubs last summer. (See DFB-Pokal Final: Bayern wins 4-3 in Der Klassiker final, Mats Hummels completes Bayern signing, Sebastian Rode signs four-year deal with Borussia Dortmund and Götze to make Dortmund return, Schürrle completes Dortmund offensive lineup) acagastya PING ME! 07:46, 6 August 2017 (UTC)

- your call Acagastya.CASSIOPEIA (talk) 08:19, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Okay. Sure! acagastya PING ME! 08:23, 6 August 2017 (UTC)

Tennis?
Are you interested in tennis also? Defending champion Stan Wawrinka would not participate in the US Open, he posted on Facebook saying he is out for 2017. You might want to write about it. acagastya PING ME! 18:05, 4 August 2017 (UTC)
 * - Let me see what I can do. I am into sports, especially MMA, the faster growing sport for the past 5 years, and I am interested in politics and science as well.
 * Oh that is great! I cover some sports articles. (Which of course, someone else has to review) But if you write, I can also review it — making things happen quicker. Which sport do you think you would like to write about? (So that I can suggest you, or even request to cover, if I can't) Let me know if it is too much for you, (as you are new, and some of these things might not be easy; I remember when I started, it was with football articles, and I had to struggle a lot!) We would decrease the speed. Thank you. acagastya PING ME! 02:24, 5 August 2017 (UTC)
 * UFC (mixed martial arts), rugby, tennis, basketball and track and field. Do suggest for I welcome that.
 * There is some sports event in London -- and it might be the last appearance for Usain Bolt. That might also interest you. acagastya PING ME! 06:22, 5 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Acagastya, will work on Usian Bolt article. His last run would be on next week, if Jamaica make it to final on the 4x100 and I believe they will. For now I am gathering the background info. Will update you accordingly.CASSIOPEIA (talk) 07:45, 6 August 2017 (UTC)

*last 100m race. acagastya PING ME! 07:47, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
 * yes 4x100m :).The 100m race has just finished and Usian came 3rd. The 4x100m is scheduled on August 12. Should we go for his last 100m or or his last race for the article?CASSIOPEIA (talk) 08:16, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
 * How about Bolt finishes third in his last 100m race in Athletics World Championship? acagastya PING ME! 08:22, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Ok Acagastya. will work on it and ping you tmr when it is ready to review.CASSIOPEIA (talk) 08:43, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
 * The sooner, the better :-) acagastya PING ME! 08:57, 6 August 2017 (UTC)

Calling Usain Bolt "the fastest man on earth" is okay. But calling him "world’s greatest sprinter" is not all all neutral. acagastya PING ME! 13:42, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Done. Have tried to put caption and credit image, but it did not sure. Kindly help. Have a look. Thank you.CASSIOPEIA (talk) 13:57, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
