Wikinews:Shortcuts

Shortcuts are created to link to commonly used pages easily. By convention, they all start with "WN:" and are written in capitals. They are redirects to the actual page. shortcut should be used on pages linked to here. While these are very useful, be wary of overuse and note that they may not be immediately understandable to newbies, and very many longtime contributors may be unaware of many as well.

If a shortcut is ambiguous, put a note on top of the page it redirects to, explaining the possible other meanings. Single letter shortcuts may be especially prone to this.
