Guantanamo Bay detainees continue hunger strike
Hi. I reviewed Guantanamo Bay detainees continue hunger strike and have left detailed feedback at Talk:Guantanamo Bay detainees continue hunger strike if you wish to get the closer to being published ready. --LauraHale (talk) 04:36, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Please do not simply try resubmitting articles for review without attempting to action points raised in the failing review. --Brian McNeil / talk 09:04, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
 * This 'crib sheet' will probably help with some of the formatting in articles. Most larger newsrooms will not have "as-primitive" a system for managing copy, the Wikimedia Foundation are trying to develop a visual editor, but it is a very difficult CS problem. If David hasn't given you the Wikinews Style Guide as strongly recommended reading material, I will. ;-) It's not easy to pick it up by osmosis, but reading the Guide and a few of the project's Featured Articles should help a lot. --Brian McNeil / talk 09:22, 28 March 2013 (UTC)


 * I see you've saved this from being stale, but the most-recent information should be in the lede, much as the AAP wire report has. Eg: " officials in the White House have stated they are tracking the prisoners' hunger strike, confirming that a scheduled visit by the  (ICRC) has been brought forward due to the protest. ..." --Brian McNeil / talk 14:36, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

North Korea claims they are clear to begin nuclear attacks
Hi. We did a number of formatting errors to your article. Can you please look at the code to see what was done? And then fix the non-matching writing you put into the article? When writing professionally, you are likely going to need to match the local style guide requirements, and doing that now with our rules is good practice, especially when we assisted you in getting the format fixed to begin with. :)--LauraHale (talk) 06:07, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

South Korean workers evacuate Kaesong
Hi. I reviewed South Korean workers evacuate Kaesong. It is not yet publish ready. The article needs additional clarity by giving credit to things like who things appear like, and who fears things. The last paragraph appears completely disconnected from the rest of the text. More active voice text is required. --LauraHale (talk) 11:21, 28 April 2013 (UTC)

More US medical staff enter Guantanamo Bay
Hi. I just wanted to drop you a line that I moved More US medical staff enter Guantanamo Bay back to draft. There are some fundamental point of view problems that need to be addressed, some key facts missing (Can I assume it is the New Zealand navy that sent extra troops) no categories, no sidebar, no pictures, external links embedded in the article. Before submitting for review again, please address them so you do not get a not ready for publication, which will further delay potential publication. --LauraHale (talk) 23:39, 29 April 2013 (UTC)


 * I found it not-ready with a bunch of comments; I wonder if I went overboard on the point about Worthington, but, well. My hope was to identify as nearly everything as possible all at once, so as to maximize the chance that the next submitted revision would pass.  --Pi zero (talk) 02:21, 1 May 2013 (UTC)
