Welcome
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! user:Bawolff 02:30, 15 October 2006 (UTC)


 * I've updated your welcome template to the more-current one. --Brian McNeil / talk 03:28, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

New York transport budget
If you read my review, I never checked the article for copyright as there were other things in need of fixing. If you reckon it's ready remove tasks and replace it with review again and someone will take a look at it. The title still needs changed. It is meaningless to anyone outside America.

 * Oh, btw, you'd better take a copy of the new version of the welcome template. It's got links to one or two key changes made since that one above was brought in. Here ya go:

Hawaiian Representative Neil Abercrombie resigns
I've copyedited, reviewed, and published this. Can you take a look at the comments and the edits I made prior to publication please? --Brian McNeil / talk 18:23, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Intel gets hit with antitrust lawsuit
This is interesting news, but I wonder where the sources are? Q/0/k 04:16, 18 December 2009 (UTC)

Former president of Venezuela Rafael Caldera, dies at age 93
This is tagged as minimal and sources. If no sources are specified it is virtually impossible to assess if the article might be a copyright violation. The image uploaded to Commons for it was deleted as a copyright violation; I've replaced it with a freely-available image from Commons. --Brian McNeil / talk 03:31, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

Fireworks found on US domestic flight article
"Pyrotechnics are banned on American flights and individuals face a $10,000 civil penalty." is not supported by the sources. Can you add a source in to substantiate this? Otherwise it is good for publishing as far as I am concerned. --Александр Дмитрий (Alexandr Dmitri) (talk) 09:41, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

British guy executed in china article
Unfortunatly the article cannot be published yet, as it is based on a single source. Articles (with exception for OR and the like) should combine information from mulitple sources, instead of just re-writing a single source. See Single source for details. Cheers.

 * I've added a second source for you to use for additional information and to reduce the risk of copyright infringements, POV etc. from the BBC. Regards --Александр Дмитрий (Alexandr Dmitri) (talk) 10:53, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

ETA on those photos? You sent me redlinks, I assume your in the process of uploading? --JulesMattsson (talk) 19:06, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

Great job with the photos! --SVTCobra 01:36, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Also, quick suggestion: perhaps you'd like to apply for Editor status at WN:FRRFP? You have quite a few articles under your belt now, I think you've proved you know your way around Wikinews well enough to get the bit, plus we're going to need all the reviewers we can get for the upcoming writing contest.
