Goodgerster, welcome to Wikinews! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Our key policies - if you read anything, read these! Here a few pointers to help you get to know Wikinews: There are always things to do on Wikinews: 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! CGorman 20:14, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Hi, just a note to say that I have reverted your edit because my headline was better. Don't you think so? Nice, isn't it. Dan100 (Talk) 9 July 2005 17:40 (UTC)

About the AOL article
1. It's being reported on CNN which is owned by Time Warner: http://money.cnn.com/2005/09/15/technology/aol_microsoft/ and http://edition.cnn.com/2005/BUSINESS/09/15/microsoft.aol.ap/index.html That's how we know it's true. 2. Someone else reported and there is a merge flag but no-one's merging it: http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Microsoft%2C_Time_Warner_talk_on_partnership 3. Up until now I have personally viewed Wikinews as the leading news site on the Internet. 4. Don't insult my style of writing. 5. AOL is one of the largest ISPs in the world, many viewers of Wikinews probably use them. Wikinews has to report on this if it wants any credibility. 66.111.38.110 21:57, 18 September 2005 (UTC)
