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! --Brian McNeil / talk 11:42, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

Cross-project links
As you'll note if you take a look at your userpage cross-project links don't work and in any case you've missed the "w:" prefix for a link to Wikipedia. A soft link is preferred. --Brian McNeil / talk 11:42, 29 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Ah, thanks for pointing out the lack of a “W:”. I actually already knew that automatic cross-project redirects didn’t work, but I don’t see any problem with using the usual markup, since it just presents a soft redirect in such cases anyway. —Wulf - (talk) 07:09, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
