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!

Squash lines up for the 2016 Olympics
First off, welcome to Wikinews!

Secondly, thank you for your great first article, Squash lines up for the 2016 Olympics. Please do not be discouraged that I removed the article from being published - this is only because the English and grammar was not too good (but perfectly readable, which helped me in fixing it!), and the article contained some Point of View material (see WN:NPOV for more info). I have gone ahead and "copyedited" the story - basically I have run through it and edited it to conform with our standards. Please feel free to recheck the article and make sure I did not remove or change anything critical - while I did check the sources it is possible I missed something, and do not feel discouraged from further editing the story before it is republished!

I'm so pleased to see a new user with what appears to be natural journalistic ability - please do not let this routine fix-up discourage you now or in the future - you have started on the right foot! If you need any help, don't hesitate to contact me! --Skenmy(t•c•w) 20:30, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Football: Thomas Sørensen ready for new club
Your Thomas Sørensen story has been published. I can see why it was hard to find a second source for this since the Danish papers all seemed to rely on the same Ritzau story. Cheers, --SVTCobra 22:12, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Nick and Diana win Danish Paradise Hotel
I am afraid that the Paradise Hotel story is too old to be considered news. Cheers, --SVTCobra 22:34, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Gram123. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Gram123~enwikinews that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:18, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
