Welcome
, 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!

 * It is me too, but I have since tried to standardize on using MGodwin across all non-Wikipedia projects. (My Wikipedia User ID will remain "Mikegodwin".] So you can delete the "Mikegodwin" account on Wikinews.MGodwin (talk) 23:56, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
