Radical cleric Abu Hamza denies encouraging murder

January 19, 2006

During his trial today, Muslim cleric Abu Hamza al-Masri, denied the claim that he had incited his followers to commit acts of murder. Instead he claimed that he had asked them to fight abroad. The charges against Abu Hamza include nine counts of soliciting to murder and three of trying to stir up racial hatred. He denies all 15 charges against him.

When questioned by his defense council he was asked if he had incited followers to kill in England. To this Abu Hamza replied "No". Abu Hamza also told the court of his feelings about racism "If you are a scholar you will never distinguish between anyone of any color. Racism is one of the greatest sins. I actually condemned it,"

The cleric also denies that he was in possession of a document which could be considered to help in the preparation of terrorist attacks.

The defense barrister warned the jury to ignore the comments of the press as they may have convicted the defendant before the trial has begun. Comments such as "Captain Hook" and "Hook off Hooky" have been used. Mr. Fitzgerald told them of "exaggeration and misrepresentation by the media".

The cleric faces nine charges under the Offences against the Person Act 1861, plus four charges under the Public Order Act 1986 of "using threatening, abusive or insulting words or behavior with the intention of stirring up racial hatred". The possession of video and audio recordings with the intent to be used to stir-up racial hatred, and a final charge of the possession of the Encyclopedia of the Afghani Jihad, which, is said to have information "of a kind likely to be useful to a person committing or preparing an act of terrorism".

Talk:Al Jazeera airs new Osama Bin Laden tape

Berlin court issues provisional order against the Wikimedia Foundation

January 19, 2006

A district court in Berlin has issued a preliminary injunction against the Wikimedia Foundation for displaying the true name of a computer hacker on the German Wikipedia. The family of the deceased German hacker, known as "Tron," obtained the provisional order in Berlin on December 14. The order was corrected on December 19 because it was at first addressed to Saint Petersburg, Russia instead of Saint Petersburg, Florida.

Tron became famous as the first person to crack the encryption of Pay TV and calling cards. He died in 1998, at the age of 26, in an apparent suicide. Questions have arisen as to the nature of the hacker's death.

The court has ordered the German Wikipedia to remove all forms of the hacker's complete civil name "Boris Floricic". The court states that this is justified by the fact that the hacker never worked under his civil name, but instead his Internet alias.

The legality of the order is in question, because the Wikimedia Foundation servers are not located in Germany, but instead in the United States. Whether the Foundation will comply or if the family's attorneys have any means to enforce the decision remains in doubt. The case prompted many German media outlets to publicly display the hacker's real name.

On January 17 the same court also issued a preliminary injunction against Wikimedia Deutschland e.V., the German chapter of the Wikimedia Foundation, citing the same reasons. In that injuction, the chapter was ordered to cease redirecting www.wikipedia.de to de.wikipedia.org. Wikimedia Deutschland complied, but its lawyers announced that they will appeal the decision, saying that Tron's civil name has long since been public knowledge.

West Papua refugees sent to Australia's Christmas Island Detention Centre

January 19, 2006

A group of 43 West Papuan asylum seekers found on Cape York were herded on to an RAAF Hercules and flown to Australia's Christmas Island Detention Centre on Thursday. The Immigration Department says the single men in the group will be detained in the remote facility, and the six women and seven children will be accommodated in staff housing.

The group left the Papuan port town of Merauke on Friday in an outrigger canoe and landed on Tuesday at Janey Creek, north of the Mapoon Aboriginal community on western Cape York, without being detected.

Police, immigration and customs officials prevented the group communicating with media in Weipa, where the group were detained in Queensland's far north. The group was kept under close guard throughout the day, with the media required to remain at least 25m away.

Officials accompanied the asylum seekers on toilet breaks and trips to the Weipa hospital, covering the heads of the new arrivals with blankets or jackets.

Immigrationl officials will interview the group, assessing their claims for asylum, while at the remote island detention facility on Christmas Island, 2,600km north-west of Perth.

The Department says the Papuans are being transferred as part of the long-standing government policy to process unauthorised arrivals offshore, not because mainland detention centres lack capacity. Immigration Minister Amanda Vanstone said the group would be treated the same as any other boat arrivals.

John Wing from the University of Sydney's Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies says Indonesian military activity has been increasing in Papua which may encourage more people to seek asylum in Australia.

"This may be a trend that we see developing over the coming year or two as the military operations are stepped up in Papua against the local people. As in other parts of the world, the fighting and the human rights situation becomes too grim in one's homeland, he said, "these people are forced to flee to the place of nearest sanctuary and in this part of the world, for the Papuans, it's Australia."

Mr Wing says he believes a prominent student activist is part of the group of asylum seekers. He says the man has already spent time in jail for attending independence meetings and could be persecuted if he is sent back to Papua.

"Many villages have been burned to the ground; houses, clinics, schools, churches have all been destroyed by arson, by the Indonesian armed forces, and some of these refugees are from that area," he said.

The Indonesian embassy says there is no persecution in Papua.

The 36 adults and seven children are the third boatload of asylum-seekers to land on the Australian mainland in the past four years.

Talk:Radical cleric Abu Hamza denies encouraging murder

"This act prevents the soliciting of people to murder Jews and other non-Muslim."

I don't the act is that specific.

That is true, nevertheless in this case that is how he has supposedly broken the law and so i do think it is still fair comment.

Thanks for pointing it out though! TG 21:54, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

Pictures
The picture of this man does NOT site sources. Possibly copyvio. Jason Safoutin 22:14, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, well a quick Google turns it up on http://www.gunculture.net/index.php/weblog/abu_hamza/ You simply can't google and grab a random image off the web for an article, even if there is no copyright message you should assume one exists.  I've checked http://commoms.wikimedia.org, and there's nothing on Hamza that seems relevant.  The picture on the Wikipedia article is pretty dreadful, and when you check it, it looks as if someone is asserting fair use from a BBC image.  That might apply on Wikipedia, but it wouldn't apply here.  We'd be gaining from a "competitor's" material.  So, you may be SOL for a picture on this one. --Brian McNeil / talk 22:26, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
 * So if its possible copy vio, and we cannot verify that, shouldn't we assume it is and remove it? Jason Safoutin 22:31, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I stuck a copyvio on it (the picture), just wait and see. --Brian McNeil / talk 22:38, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

User:Noff/“Don’t tell “Sorry…”
Hi! Thank you for your contribution!

This article appears to be an editorial regarding the news events in Vladivostok. Wikinew does not publish editorials in the main article namespace, but supports users creating and making available editorials as subpages of their user page. I have moved your article there for you.

Again, thanks for your interest, and your contributions! -  Amgine | talk en.WN 08:05, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Noff. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Noff~enwikinews that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:22, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Dog falls on car and kills driver in Michigan

January 19, 2006 A dog fell off an Interstate 96 overpass in Livonia, Michigan killing 81 year-old Charles G. Jetchick.

Jetchick and a passenger, who police would not identify, were transported to St. Mary's Hospital where Jetchick died from his injuries. The passenger suffered only minor injuries.

Police say that the 60 to 70 pound (27-32 kilograms) dog was not thrown off the overpass, but "probably fell by accident while trying to avoid a car," Sgt. Michael A. Shaw of the Michigan State Police said. "We don't know and thats why we are looking for witnesses."

The dog, which fell about 16 feet (5 metres) also died due to its injuries.

Shaw has been with the State Police for 11 years and has never encountered a similar incident. "We've had rocks and other stuff like that fall off of overpasses. This would be the first dog we've had," said Shaw.

New Horizons probe bound for Pluto on nine year journey

January 19, 2006

Earlier today, an Atlas V rocket carrying the New Horizons unmanned spacecraft probe lifted off from Pad 41 at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station bound for the last unexplored planet in the solar system, Pluto, at 11 am EST, after two scrubbed liftoffs the past two days because of bad weather.

The probe will take a nine-year, 3-billion-mile (5-billion-km) journey to Pluto, the ninth and final planet in the solar system. It is expected to take photos of the planet that are of the highest resolution ever, since current photos of Pluto are not of the highest quality, even those taken from Hubble Space Telescope. It will also attempt to characterize the global geology and morphology of the planet and study the atmosphere of the planet.

After accelerating to 36,000 mph, it will pass the moon in nine hours. The probe will pass by Mars in April and then head on to Jupiter where it will pass by in February 2007 and continue on. Around July 14, 2015, the probe is expected to fly by Pluto and its moon Charon, after which the probe could possibly make a flyby of one or more Kuiper Belt objects. (KBOs).

New Horizons is powered by an onboard nuclear electric generator, known as a radioisotope thermoelectric generator, using 24 pounds (10.8kg) of plutonium as its radioactive "fuel" source. Some anti-nuclear activists feared that the launch could end in an accident with radioactive material being spread over a wide area. The chances of such a disaster were calculated by the United States Department of Energy at 1 in 350.

The Tuesday liftoff was postponed because of high winds at the launch site. The Wednesday launch was stopped after a severe storm near Laurel, Maryland knocked out power at the Johns Hopkins University's Applied Physics Laboratory, which hosts the flight control center for the mission.

As a side note, the probe is also carrying some of the ashes from Clyde Tombaugh, the discoverer of Pluto.

New Zealand to send out bird flu brochures

January 19, 2006 A New Zealand newspaper reported on Wednesday the 18th of January that the New Zealand Ministry of Health intends to send out brochures, to about 1.4 million households in a national mail drop; on how to prepare for a Avian Flu pandemic. It is believed that the campaign would begin in March.

The brochures will contain information on how to set up emergency kits, and hygiene guides.

The brochures will complement print, radio and television advertising, which will be running at the same time. Advertising started this week on National Radio; New Zealand's public service radio broadcaster.

Dr Ashley Bloomfield, acting director of public health, would not confirm a mail drop at this stage, but other activities for raising awareness such as more paid advertising, updates to the website and 0800 number, and "possibly" a nationwide mail drop.

The Avian Flu H5N1 has killed at least 79 people since 2003.

Mark Latham in fight 12 months after resigning as Australian opposition leader

January 20, 2006

Former Australian opposition leader and leader of the Australian Labor Party, Mark Latham has been accused of assaulting and stealing a camera belonging to a photographer for The Daily Telegraph in Sydney.

The newspaper claims that Latham assaulted photographer Ross Schultz, injuring his wrist outside a fast-food restaurant in Campbelltown, a suburb in Sydney's South-West. It is alleged that Latham stole Shultz's camera and smashed it with a hammer when he returned home.

The Daily Telegraph claims that Latham later handed the smashed camera to Campbelltown police.

It is believed that Latham was angry that the photographer took photographs of his children playing on play equipment at the restaurant. Latham accuses the newspaper of stalking and harassment.

Mr Shultz said "He took the camera and began walking to his car," "I politely asked him to return it. He placed it on the bonnet and then turned around and threw a left hook at me."

"I evaded it easily but he wanted to go toe-to-toe with me. I just kept telling him to calm down, 'You've got kids in the car', but he was off his head. He was so worked up, I wasn't thinking of the camera."

The Daily Telegraph claims they were working on a story to coincide with the first anniversary of Latham's resignation as opposition leader and as an MP.

Mr Latham is reported to have a history of violence, breaking the arm of a taxi driver in 2001 and in 1989 allegedly assaulting a Labor party stalwart.

Errant monkeys draw the ire of Delhi court

January 19, 2006

The Delhi High Court expressed its displeasure to the civic authorities on their continued failure to resolve the problem of marauding monkeys in the court premises. The court was in session when the public interest litigation filed by a Supreme Court lawyer was brought to its attention.

The petitioner Mr.Nirmal Chopra argued the case and explained how the simians showed up during work hours and attacked people and snatched food from them. The rhesus monkeys have also been blamed for damaging furniture belonging to the lawyers and courtroom fixtures such as electrical fittings. According to Mr.Chopra India's Wildlife Act of 1972 empowers civic authorities to kill or hunt animals when they endanger human life. He said that the lawyers from the Tis Hazari court had requested the state government and the municipality to tackle the situation but no action had resulted.

The lawyer for the civic authority was quoted by the Press Trust of India as saying that catching monkeys was no longer its responsibility. The court was informed that a monkey catcher hired by the municipality had required 72 stitches after being mauled during an operation. After this incident the work had to be halted because other monkey catchers refused to take up the job.

The court gave the civic authority four more weeks to catch the monkeys that are disrupting work at the Tis Hazari courts. "If you cannot perform your statutory duty, then close down your institution" the court is reported to have told the counsel.

Delhi is known to suffer from trouble brought on by monkeys. The animals are reported to invade homes, schools and government offices in the city. Scores of animals have moved in as the city expands into surrounding forests. In an effort to control the problem, the Delhi administration captured about 500 monkeys and took them to the outskirts of the city last year.

ANZAC Day marked throughout NZ, AU

April 25, 2006

Australians and New Zealanders throughout the world stood still and turned out in huge numbers for their national war memorial days in remembrance of the failed (ANZAC) —, Turkey that began on 25 April 1915. The fateful attack was designed to end the First World War quicker by creating a supply line to. A hundred thousand died in the battle, remembered every year as by both nations. The British-directed battle of Gallipoli is often seen as a defining moment in the 'birth' of Australia and New Zealand. The battlefields of Gallipoli, where so much blood was shed, has become near-sacred soil.

This is the 91st anniversary of the attack. This is the first ANZAC day where there have been no survivors left from World War I.

Around 10,000 people are turned out at the dawn service at Gallipoli. Meanwhile dawn services have been held throughout New Zealand. The numbers of veterans may be dwindling, but the numbers of those who come to pay their respects is not. In Auckland nearly 20,000 people attended the dawn service at the. During the service, a 62-year-old veteran of the died of a heart attack, falling face forward on to the concrete as the  was sounded.

In, about 5000 people gathered at the near the.

Speaking at the service Royal New Zealand Returned and Services’ Association president John Campbell said, "We are honouring the Anzacs. We are not here to glorify war, but to remember that we value who we are and the freedoms we possess...They did not die in vain. They fought for peace, freedom and democracy."

,, addressed the crowd, at the Wellington service saying "Soldiers, veterans, all New Zealanders who are gathered here, around New Zealand and around the world to commemorate ANZAC Day. Today is the day we grieve for our fellow New Zealanders killed in war. It is the day we honour them, and remember their sacrifice". This is her last ANZAC Day as Governor-General.

2006 is the New Zealand Year of the Veteran, and the 90th anniversary of the organisation founded by those who did return from Gallipoli – the.

Australia and New Zealand commemorate the ANZAC Day public holiday on the 25th of April every year to honour the bravery and sacrifice of the members of the ANZAC's and of all those who served their country —

Syria voices support of Iran's nuclear program

January 20, 2006 On Thursday, Syria said that it supports Iran's nuclear stance and said it "has a right to atomic technology," and said Western objections to Tehran's nuclear ambitions were "not persuasive."

It comes in the wake of demands by US and European countries for Iran to halt its nuclear fuel enrichment activities. Iran notes that its nuclear program is civilian and consistent with Article IV of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, which establishes the inalienable right of all the Parties to the Treaty to develop research, production and use of nuclear energy for peaceful purposes, and that it in line with Article IV, it will not abandon its enrichment efforts.

The Non-Proliferation Treaty is part of international law and under Article VI, requires the US, France, UK and other nuclear weapons states to pursue negotiations in good faith on effective measures relating to cessation of the nuclear arms race at an early date [the treaty was signed in 1968] and to nuclear disarmament, and on a treaty on general and complete disarmament under strict and effective international control.

President Bashar Assad of Syria, a longtime Iranian ally said he "backed Tehran's moves toward nuclear power," and wanted to strengthen the two nation's ties. "We support Iran regarding its right to peaceful nuclear technology," Assad said at a news conference with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. "It is the right of Iran and any other state to own nuclear technology for peaceful purposes. Countries that object to that have not provided a convincing or logical reason." Ahmadinejad also said the two countries needed to "coordinate their positions." Also on Thursday, Russia's Foreign Minister called for "a cautious approach to the mounting crisis over Iran's renewal of nuclear research."

The two nations have been allies for twenty-six years.

Prosecutors continue investigation as Livedoor faces possible delisting

January 20, 2006 The Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office has been investigating allegations surrounding Livedoor's acquisition strategies and stock sales. Japanese newspaper Yomiuri Shimbun reports that the company may have made 4 billion yen ($35 million) in profits by following illegal takeover practices. Livedoor has been known to use acquisitions to support its rapid growth. It currently owns about 50 technology companies providing financial services and other software over the internet.

Recent investigations have centered around the acquisitions of two companies Royal Shinpan, a consumer finance company and Cueznet Co. an online matchmaking firm. Livedoor announced its intent to acquire the two companies in August and September of 2004.

According to allegations, an investment fund was used to purchase shares in the targeted companies before the announcements were made public. It is believed that after the stock swaps in October 2004, Livedoor received the shares of the two companies through this fund. The investment fund also received new Livedoor shares in exchange which were then allegedly sold off to a foreign investment fund. Livedoor is reported to have issued 12.6 million new shares for the two stock swaps.

Since Livedoor owned most of the fund, the profits from these sales were siphoned back into Livedoor. The investment fund JMAM Salvage Ichi-go Toshi Jigyo Kumiai was deemed a voluntary organization and hence avoided registration and disclosure regarding its investors and its investments. Concealing ownership of targeted takeover companies violates securities and exchange laws. A prosector commented "Stock swaps are not illegal, but it is problematic if a company makes deals aiming to make profits by selling its shares this way."

Stock drop continues, may face delisting
Livedoor shares continued their fall for the fourth straight day on Friday. The stock has now lost about 52 percent or $3.3 billion in market capitalization since news of the investigation broke through on Monday evening.

The Tokyo Stock Exchange(TSE) is considering delisting stocks of Livedoor Co. and its affiliate Livedoor Marketing Co. Livedoor is scheduled to submit the findings of its internal investigation to the TSE by Friday. "If we can confirm they violated listing regulations, we'll have no choice but to decide to delist their stocks," TSE Chairman and President Taizo Nishimuro told reporters at a news conference.

A company's delisting would seriously impact its ability to raise funds.

User:International/casepage User:Mrmiscellanious

Casepage User:Mrmiscellanious
I find Mrmiscellanious behaviour unacceptable and start this page to come to a solution. The correct way of handle this problem is not clear but some kind of resolution is necessary to avoid harm to Wikinews project. This page is under construction until I announce it in talk:Administrators International 05:42, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Policy reforms may be the best way to resolve this type of problem as to some degree I have observed the traits perhaps best observed in the user Mrmiscellanious to be present in most users. Though I have only been contributing for roughly four months on this site I have observed it for nearly a year. The user Mrmiscellanious seems to generally object to the idea that even administrators are only equal to every other user in the importance of their edits to articles. I seem to recall several mentions of community made by the user yet the user seems to frequently deny negotiation with other users, even those with focus only on improving the accuracy of articles and that many disputes with the user arise from poorly worded complaints of policy violation. To possibly resolve this I suggest that in concept two or perhaps three policies be implemented to generally improve user relations in the community and that they be uniformly applied.

I suggest that a precise and directly worded policy be considered that might embody perhaps such agreements between users as: for the betterment of the community and site that users promise to contribute as much as possible when in a conflict as when not in one, and that the contributions of all users at all times and in all situations are equal so far as greater accuracy is attained or at least greater quantity of relevant information is added, and that the NPOV and other policies are obeyed.

I have seen, one example recently by this user in the article "Ayman al-Zawahiri releases new tape," but also from many user in many situations making complaints of violations that they failed to explain adequately so that the violation could be terminated as the complaints were not understood by the user or administrator complained against (and others with the same that remained disputed to the end without any further effective description). For this I recommend that a second new policy, perhaps set of policies to be precise, be considered: to set up a work project to add section and sub-section numbers to policy documents in order to expedite references to specific lines and clauses and also to require that both specific section numbers be included in complaints regarding policy transgressions and that upon request detailed explanation of how the action considered violating the policy actually violates the policy be required from the user or administrator making the accusation for the accusation to be formalized and considered valid by the community and be enforceable.

It, I believe, is the duty of administrators to effectively communicate policy violation complaints to potential violators so that it can be determined if policy was violated intentionally and that administrators then proceed properly and also the responsibility of users to effectively communicate with community members for the betterment of articles to which they contribute and that for this purpose any and every request for clarification must be addressed in as calm and formal, perhaps even to the degree of being strict, a manner as required.

Harrassment
Please be aware MrMiscellanious has repeatedly been attacked on the ground discussed here, and has been reviewed repeatedly by the community which has determined, repeatedly, that these are not reasonable basis for de-adminship. Further attempts documenting such non-policy violations will be considered disruptive and harrassing.

Where a user has basis for complaint within policy, please contact any admin immediately. You may also consider there is an ArbCom being discussed, and will likely be approved on January 31st. -  Amgine | talk en.WN 07:11, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

 * Well you find this little page an started to defend Mrm. As a vigourus defender of Mrm:s harrasing of users here you might find that nobody will contact you with complains. Thretening words like "Further attempts documenting such non-policy violations will be considered disruptive and harrassing" make you an part of the problem discussed here. Btw you talk about Mrm:s hairthin success in not been rfda saved by a minority, with you within, and in mind that you tried to ban user:Neutralizer with opposit rules make you look... not really good. In my opinion you should try help to solve this problem. Thats what administrator are for. International 09:12, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

 * Please feel free to express your opinions in your user space, where I have moved this page. In this way I have removed any issues regarding your making an additional attempt to de-admin a contributor.

 * I believe we have radically differing opinions on how to support the Wikinews community, which results in you believing there is a problem with MrMiscellanious and my opinion there is a problem within the community—some members not accepting other members as part of the same community. -  Amgine | talk en.WN 09:24, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Wikinews:Writing an article/New Zealand

Please read this page in whole before submitting an article!

Anyone, including you, can write for Wikinews! Just type a title like Good Weather in New Zealand in the box below, click "Create article", and start writing:

You will see a page that is empty except for some preloaded "tags" that will help to format your article. These are:
 * The tag. It puts your article in the correct date category, e.g.: July 29, 2006
 * The tag. This indicates that your article is still in development, and will list it as such. Once you are ready to publish, you can replace it with    and save the page.

Essential steps
These are steps an article has to go through to be published. However no one editor needs do all these steps themselves! You can do as little or as much as you want - the wider community of editors may well take up your story where you leave off.

Is your story news?
Check the content guide to see what kinds of articles Wikinews runs.

Start your story
First, check the Main Page under both Latest news and Developing stories to see if your story has already been covered. You may also want to check Story preparation to see if anyone has been working on the same story in advance.

If your story has not been covered already, create it in the box above. Please refer to the Wikinews style guide for current name and headline practices. Then click the Save button below the text area, and then click on your link (it will be red) to create your article.

Date your story and list as developing
Be sure to date your article at the very top by adding the following if they're not already there:

July 29, 2006

or

- NB Only use this if you are doing original reporting and were present personally at the news event.

Then start a new line, and add the text to your new story if it isn't there already.

This will also automatically attach the category for the date you specify, and list it on Developing stories in the Workspace and on the Main page.

Write your story in a 'news' style
Some degree of uniformity in writing style has, through common sense, tradition, evolution and research, developed in the majority of the English speaking news media. For tips on attaining an effective news style, see the Style guide.

Your story must comply with the neutral point of view - that is, represent all sides of a story fairly.

List your sources
When you have finished writing your article, you need to list your sources, so others can check your work and help improve the story.

As all information is required to be referenced, anything you write that is not backed up by your sources may be removed!

The method to use appears below, all under a heading of ==Sources== :

To format your text in the style demonstrated above, use this template:

To be clear, the fields are url, title, author, pub(lisher), and date.

It doesn't matter what order your references appear in. If your source is missing one or more of these fields, leave a blank space after the "=".

Original reporting?
If you are writing your article using notes you took yourself "in the field", the above section won't apply. Instead, read Original reporting for guidance.

Add the right categories
Every article needs to be listed under one or more categories, so it can be found once it has dropped off the Latest news pages, and also to be listed on the region and topic subpages. See the SectionMenu to find out which categories are appropriate. Add them using this syntax:. You can only add one category at a time - use a new for each category you want to add.

List your article for others to read!
Simply remove the tag from you story and instead add the text  (location is not important). This will automatically list your article on the Main Page.

While you are working on a story
To avoid edit conflicts you might first want to insert the tag and then save your story. Remove the tag when you're finished.

Add images
You may wish to add images to your story. Even if none are available from the actual event, it can be helpful to the reader if you add a graphic of some sort, perhaps a map, or some icon representative of event features.

Use the Reference desk to find images to upload, or take your own photos too (see digital camera), or even draw your own pictures (using a free program like the Gimp, for example).

If you want to upload public domain images, use the Commons image, sound and file library. Use this link to go directly to the upload page. You will need to register on the Commons if you have not already done so.

You can only upload 'free' (as in 'free to be redistributed at will') images on the Commons. You can upload 'fair use' images directly to Wikinews. Thoroughly read the fair use guidelines before uploading a picture to Wikinews; if you picture does not meet the fair use guidelines, it will be deleted. If your image is allowable, use this link to upload images to Wikinews.

Is your story about an on-going issue?
If so, you might find a suitable template to add to your story on Template messages/Infoboxes. These will automatically put appropriate graphics on your story and place it in the right categories.

Alan Carpenter "effectively" new Western Australian Premier

January 21, 2006

Western Australian Energy Minister Alan Carpenter has confirmed he will become Western Australia's next state Premier.

The top job became vacant following Premier Geoff Gallop's shock resignation on Monday 16th January. Contender Police Minister Michelle Roberts has withdrawn from the leadership race, saying Mr Carpenter has her support.

Speaking in Perth today, Labor powerbroker Jim McGinty said Mr Carpenter was now "effectively" the WA premier, putting an end to a week of speculation about jockeying for the role.

"We were all shocked and saddened by Dr Gallop's announcement on Monday but to have a new premier by the end of the week is as smooth (a transition) as you could hope for," Mr McGinty said today.

Mr Carpenter will now be elected unopposed when caucus meets on Tuesday. WA Attorney-General and former Labor leader Mr McGinty says Mr Carpenter will make a great premier but it is important he does not change too much.

"In my experience when people start to try to change their appearance or their personality is when they fail," he said. "I'm sure Alan Carpenter will remain Alan Carpenter."

Alan Carpenter was born in Albany, Western Australia, on January 4 1957. After graduating from the University of Western Australia with an Arts degree (politics) in 1979, he began a career as a journalist with the Albany Advertiser newspaper. He has worked for TVW Channel 7, Perth and also ABC TV as a State political reporter.

In 1992, he became the 7.30 Report's Presenter in WA and later presented the ABC's Stateline program. In April 1996, he resigned from the ABC and gained ALP endorsement for new state seat of Willagee. He won the seat in December 1996.

Mr Carpenter has held the Shadow portfolios of Disability Services, Sport & Recreation, Family & Children's Services, Education and Drugs. He became Minister for Education, Sport & Recreation and Indigenous Affairs in February 2001. He became the Minister for Education and Training in June 2003. Following the Gallop Government’s re-election in February 2005, he became the Minister for State Development and Energy.

Mr Carpenter said he had been well schooled for the leadership position by Dr Gallop, who shocked parliament on Monday with the announcement he was quitting to battle depression.

"I was a huge supporter of Geoff, he was an outstanding premier and to match that would be no easy feat," Mr Carpenter said.

Theo Walcott deal goes through for Arsenal

January 20, 2006

Today, Arsenal have confirmed that they will be adding Theo Walcott to their side, after a 12.5 million pound deal was struck, on the premise that he pass rigorous medical examinations. Although the 16-year-old striker cannot sign until he turns 17 on 16 March, Wenger seems to see this only as a formality, as the player is set to be unveiled today at Highbury.

Although there are not many other details at this moment, it is thought that he will not be able to return to Southampton on loan, due to the hectic schedule that he will have at Arsenal. Whatever way the deal may turn out, it seems that Theo's family are with him whatever he does.

Google refuses to hand over logs to US Department of Justice

January 20, 2006

The search engine Google has been asked by the U.S. department of Justice to hand over its records of user activity. Google was asked for information regarding the type of search and the index of pages it had over a week.

This evidence is being requested by lawyers who are trying to defend the constitutionality of the Child Online Protection Act, which was struck down in 1998 by the Supreme Court.

Google has not complied with the request prompting US Attorney General Alberto Gonzales to request a court order from a federal judge in California. Google has nevertheless stated that it would fight the order. Nicole Wong, the associate general counsel for Google, said "Google is not a party to this lawsuit and their demand for information overreaches," and that "We had lengthy discussions with them to try to resolve this, but were not able to and we intend to resist their motion vigorously."

Unlike its competitors, Google is taking a firm stand on this issue with no room to compromise. Yahoo has already said that it releases data "on a limited basis and did not provide any personally identifiable information." and Microsoft said that it "works closely with law enforcement officials worldwide to assist them when requested".

Danish clothing company sells T-shirts to support FARC and PFLP

January 20, 2006

A recently created Danish clothing company is selling on the internet T-shirts in order to support the clandestine radio station of the Colombian guerrilla group Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) and the graphical workshop of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). In fact the money will be used by these groups to carry on their terrorist activities. FARC activities include kidnappings, masacres, bombs, extortions and the drug trade.

Fighters and Lovers is selling the T-shirts at 170 DKK (US$27.6), from which 35 DKK (US$5.7) are to be destinated to support both armed groups.

Anna Duever, Fighters and Lovers PR chief, said to Spanish news agency EFE that their objective is to "defend freedom and social justice, which is FARC and PFLP are fighting for". Duever believes the fact the FARC has been included by the EU in its terrorist group list is a "political game". "We pay our taxes in Denmark, and that money is used for financing the troops our government has sent to Iraq. That's terrorism. Besides, in Colombia there's a regime oppressing population and torturing and killing its people", she said.

Colombian Foreign Affairs Minister, Carolina Barco, said to local media that "financing terrorist groups is unacceptable and goes against all the international norms. Yesterday [Tuesday 19] our ambassador contacted the Danish government, we sent a protest note and have demanded an explanation."

A year ago, a Danish NGO named Oprør ("Rebelion") stated it had donated money to the Colombian guerrilla. A new antiterrorism law in Denmark may punish it.

Lancet cancer study a hoax

January 20, 2006

In Norway, the Oslo and Akershus County Medical Officer has announced that it is launching an inquiry into a possible scientific hoax, involving cancer researchers from Norway, the and.

In October 2005, the Norwegian researcher along with 13 co-authors published the study in the prestigious medical journal. The study claimed to detect a positive effect of in preventing oral cancer in smokers, based on a controlled case-study, entailing several hundred patients. On the basis of this study, a broader prospective multicenter study was to be started in 2006, partly funded by the U.S..

On January 17th 2006 however, in, Norway announced that there were strong suggestions that the whole study was a hoax. The patient material presented appeared to be invented, and thus the whole study seems to be fraudulent.

The Radium Hospital in Oslo has hired an autonomous investigative committee to look into the matter, led by the Swedish Anders Ekbom from the, Stockholm. The editor of the Lancet,, said that this was the worst research fraud he has dealt with in his time at The Lancet.

Whale spotted in river Thames, Central London

January 20, 2006

A 15ft (4.5 meter) northern bottle-nosed whale has been spotted swimming in the river Thames in Central London, UK. The "Thames whale" managed to swim up past the Thames barrier and under many bridges, reaching as far as Chelsea before it turned around just before Albert Bridge.

TV news helicopters scrambled to provide live TV footage of the whale, and many spectators lined the banks of the river.

The whale is said to be looking healthy, although some fear that the whale may beach itself as it tried to do before rescuers forced it back into the middle of the river. Normally found in the North Atlantic, there have been sightings of a second whale near Southend.

A vet, having examined the whale, reported that the animal was not swimming purposefully, has some damage around the head area and is losing blood from numerous cuts on its underside. It was last seen floating downstream with the current; its present whereabouts are unknown.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Qazwsx. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Qazwsx~enwikinews that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Message in bottle travels from UK to Australia

January 20, 2006

A message in a bottle thrown into the sea by a four-year-old girl in England has been found 9,000 miles away in Western Australia.

Alesha Johnson threw the bottle into the water at Morecambe Bay, Lancashire last July, enclosing her Heysham address, and a picture of herself.

The note read: "If you get this message, please write back."

This week, she received a letter from a 10-year-old from Perth, who said he had found the bottle in a local Boatyard.

Doreen Johnson, the manager of the nursery Alesha attends in Heysham, said: "We were all very excited when the letter from Australia arrived addressed to Alesha.

"We never dreamed the bottle would go that far, it's amazing."

The Australian boy, who said only that his name was Bob, wrote in his letter that he had asked his father to look up Heysham on the Internet.

The child did not enclose an address as he said he was moving house, but would write back when he had his new address: "We are in the middle of moving house and it’s Christmas here but when we are settled I’ll write to you again".

Nobody will know exactly how it got there but the most likely route would have been into the Atlantic, sweeping down the west coast of Africa and into the Southern Hemisphere. After rounding the Cape of Good Hope the bottle must have then crossed the Indian Ocean. Oceanographers suspect the bottle could not have travelled the whole way on its own in only six months, and it must have been caught up by a ship and transported part of the way.

"It was summertime when we threw it in the sea. All the children in class were given bottles to take home in July but Alesha’s is the only one that got a reply", she said.

"I don’t know what the other parents did with theirs. We went straight down to Morecambe Bay. Alesha was only 3 at the time. She could barely throw the cola bottle beyond her feet. I just assumed it would be washed straight back and forgot all about it."

"Then recently when I went to pick her up from nursery I was told that she had had a reply from this little boy and it had made it all the way to Australia. I couldn’t believe it. I was walking on air for about four days and was really proud. It’s made me very happy." Ms. Matthews said that Bob had made a copy of Alesha’s original note and returned it to the Time For Nursery in Heysham. He also wrote to Alesha and the family is now looking forward to learning more about him.

"I have never heard of a message in a bottle travelling so far so quickly."

Last December a message in a bottle sent from New York was washed up at Newquay, Cornwall. It had been sent 18 months earlier.

Geneva convention doesn't work around here. You have now ruined it for everyone. This will be a 3 month block on the cafe's IP addresses, and you have no one to thank for that but yourself. You vandalized the article, there is proof, and you just personally attacked me and Spum, two users here. You are not allowed back here for the period of three months. If I see you on here, it will be a permanent ban on the IP - which means, YOU will ruin it for everyone else if you post in a public place. --MrMiscellanious (talk) – 20:21, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Message in bottle travels from UK to Australia

This just needs some sources to back up the story, it has details I didn't get when I saw the story on TV, but it is fairly close to the story as presented. --Brian McNeil / talk 20:29, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Does the UK school teach to trow bottle into the sea? Isn't it consider pollution?

yes, it is required that UK schoolchildren learn how to throw trash and refuse into the ocean as part of the National Education Programs.

Talk:Google refuses to hand over logs to US Department of Justice

This could do with a bit of expansion, provided it can be done without making the article POV. In particular, European readers such as myself don't know what laws apply on things like this, and what precidents may end up being applied in the case. --Brian McNeil / talk 20:45, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Papalj. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Papalj~enwikinews that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:20, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
