User talk:The JPS

Welcome
, welcome to Wikinews! Thank you for your contributions; I hope you like the place and decide to stay! If you haven't done so already, you may want to create an account.

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! Jacques Divol 19:24, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Meat Loaf
Please put you Original Reporting notes on the article's talk page and please use the proper source template which is located just under the edit summary box. DragonFire1024 (Talk to the Dragon) 00:14, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
 * As an admin at en, this is a useful reminder of how carefully we should treat newbies. The JPS 00:15, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I think DragonFire1024 didn't notice that you added the OR notes.  —Fellow Wiki  Newsie 00:16, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, you guys are fast :) The JPS 00:17, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Btw, since you went to the concert could you upload one picture of Meat Loaf from the concert for the article?  —Fellow Wiki  Newsie 00:19, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I didn't take any pics, unfortunately. I didn't think they'd be much point as the quality wouldn't be much good, esp. when the DVD of the tour is out. I'm sure the incident will appear on YouTube soon, and is bound to be picked up tomorrow by RS. The JPS 00:22, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

Popular radio presenter Buckley fails to present final show
Your article has no third-party sources (BBC, the Guardian, etc.), so please add them if have relevant sources. However, if you intent this to be original research, please add the Original reporting tag to the article's "Sources" section and an "OR notes" section to the collaboration page. Thanks, Calebrw (talk) 12:48, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Still needs the OR notes section though. Calebrw (talk) 18:08, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

BBC support song making chart impact
This is good work, and I'm sorry about the long waits for review. Wikinews was somewhat dead over the last two days; inexplicably so, given there is decent activity today and in the days before. I hope it doesn't put you off.

As a Wikipedian with clue over how news - and Wikinews - works, can I ask a favour? For Wikipedians has never received any feedback and I'm keen to hear how useful you feel it is to people coming over from The Other Place with little or no prior knowledge of the project.

 * Many thanks, BRS. I'll take a look at that page and see if I can offer any useful feedback. The JPS (talk) 09:41, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
