Former Florida governor Jeb Bush endorses Romney

March 22, 2012

, the former governor of Florida, announced his endorsement of Republican presidential candidate hopeful Mitt Romney yesterday. This follows Romney's win in the Illinois primary on Tuesday, where he beat Rick Santorum by 12 percentage points.

In a statement, Bush argued that "now is the time for Republicans to unite behind Governor Romney and take our message of fiscal conservatism and job creation to all voters this fall". He also stated that he believed Romney to be "a leader who understands the economy, recognises more government regulation is not the answer, believes in entrepreneurial capitalism and works to ensure that all Americans have the opportunity to succeed".

Romney welcomed the endorsement and stated that it was a "key moment" in his campaign for the presidential candidacy: "Jeb Bush is synonymous with good government and with conservative policies that yield results. He has long demonstrated an outstanding ability to bring people together. I therefore take tremendous pride in having earned his endorsement."

Fundraising figures have been released for February: Romney raised 12.5 million during the month, and spent $12.3 million on advertising. In comparison, Santorum raised $2.5 million in February. The next primary will take place in Louisiana on Saturday, followed by primaries on April 3 in Wisconsin, Maryland and the District of Columbia. In Wisconsin, Romney is reported to be spending $2 million on television adverts compared to Santorum's $50,000.

Comments:User:Jdbethel/Billboard launches new chart as digital sales rocket

I interviewed Zack Harper via instant message and it was not longwinded. The conversation went as follows:

Jdbethel: What's your electronic music project called?

Zack Harper: Epos Flow

Jdbethel: Any meaning behind the name?

Zack Harper: It's my girlfriend's name phonetically backwards. Kind of cheesy but I think it sounds cool.

Jdbethel: That's pretty sweet. How do you feel about the digital takeover that has occurred in the music industry over the past few years?

Zack Harper: I think it is a great change, but I feel like the industry hasn't fully embraced it. It has caused a shift towards the independent artist route rather than the traditional record label model. I think people are still trying to figure out the best business model to keep the music industry a profitable one. When people finally embrace that you can't really make money selling your songs the way you used to, that's when people will start to get creative. It's already happening in small ways all over the place, I'm just waiting for the shift to find its way to the mainstream.

Novartis challenges patent rejection in India

March 26, 2012

The Swiss pharmaceutical company is about to challenge patent rejection in India before the. The court case is to begin on March 28. Should the complaint be successful millions of people may no longer be able to purchase necessary medication.

The object of special attention is, a medication used to treat certain , which is marketed by Novartis as Gleevec (USA) or Glivec (Europe/Australia/Latin America).

The desired interpretation of patent law would give Novartis a renewal of another twenty years for its patent on the medication.

Over six years Novartis has been struggling over different interpretations of article 3(d) of Indian patent law, which rules the patenting of variants of already approved medicines. On March 28 Novartis will present another interpretation of article 3(d) restricting it to "", while the patent application would constitute an "".

Novartis' head of corporate research in, Paul Herrling, told the journal : "[The case is] about the rewarding of innovation where markets exist, not about impeding access to medicines for poor patients. [...] We think that Gleevec is a fundamental breakthrough in medicine. If 3(d) can be used to prevent the patenting of results of innovative biomedical research, it will certainly be a disincentive for both Indian research-based pharmaceutical companies and for foreign companies wanting to be active in India. This would be to the disadvantage of Indian patients."

Brook Baker from the in, , a professor in the Program on Human Rights and the Global Economy (PHRGE), explained the situation as follows: "Novartis would like the Supreme Court to adopt a low-threshold standard whereby slight improvements will count as significantly enhanced efficacy. [...] If this low-hurdle standard is adopted, companies will be able to evergreen their patents in India much as they do in the United States. [...] India is a major exporter of generic medicines to developing countries, including 80% of the medicine now used to treat over 6.6 million people living with . India's status as the pharmacy of the poor and of the developing world is actually under attack."

has set up the protest web page "Novartis, Drop the Case!", with information about the court case.

Talk:Novartis challenges patent rejection in India

Médecins Sans Frontières reports

 * A victory for Novartis could mean death for millions (The Hindu - in English)
 * Novartis against India: The court will decide (New Internationalist - in English)
 * Supreme Court of India hears Novartis about impeachment of India's patent law (IP Watch - in English)
 * Novartis goes to court in India for patent rejection (Médecins Sans Frontières - in German)

Review of revision 1444733 [Not ready]
The headline has been de-emotionalized. --Bernhard Fastenrath 18:01, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

A statement about the position of Novartis has been added. --Bernhard Fastenrath 18:11, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

Mentioning a monopoly is not a problem, because owning an exclusive license for a medicament is a kind of monopoly, isn't it? --Bernhard Fastenrath 18:13, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

 * In English usage, at least, monopoly is not the usual term for this and its use for such comes across as aggressively negative. The objective is to describe just the facts and leave analysis to the reader.

 * The first paragraph has a lot of detail in it, I see. It should be a succinct summary of as many as reasonably possible of the basic questions about the news event; details belong in later paragraphs.  --Pi zero (talk) 18:33, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

 * I removed the word 'monopoly'. It was used by Médecins Sans Frontières, who have assumed a partisan view in this case and I was not and am not aware of an 'aggressively negative' connotation in this context, maybe subtly negative? I split the first paragraph and moved one more of the five W's into the first paragraph. --Bernhard Fastenrath 20:15, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

Misleading
Sorry, I'm new to Wikinews, so not sure if I'm using the right format. In any case, I believe the following is a bit misleading: "Should the complaint be successful millions of people may no longer be able to purchase necessary medication." If the complaint is successful, the pharmaceutical company would retain a monopoly on the meds, meaning that the poor people would still not be able to afford them. So, the statement is technically true. However, it's not that the ruling would somehow prohibit them from purchasing the meds. I think this should be clarified in the article.JoelWhy (talk) 20:00, 27 March 2012 (UTC)

 * It's unfortunate it's not better worded, I agree. Note though that substantive changes to an article are only allowed for the first 24 hours after review, which have already passed.  --Pi zero (talk) 20:29, 27 March 2012 (UTC)

Roman coins hoard found in Somerset, England

March 23, 2012

It has now emerged that in the past four to five years, approximately thirty thousand silver coins were discovered in the city of, in Somerset, England. Archaeologists discovered the coins, which are thought to date back to the year 270, on the site of a new hotel on Beau Street in the city as work was underway 150 metres away from the. The hoard, named as the, is understood to be the fifth largest ever uncovered in the United Kingdom and the greatest one found at a Roman town in the country.

Speaking on behalf of Roman Baths, Stephen Clews stated: "We've put in a request for a formal valuation and then hope to buy the coins to display them at the baths. At the time there was a lot of in the Roman Empire so there may be some explanation for why the coins were hidden away." This discovery was "unusual as it was discovered by professional archaeologists as opposed to an amateur using a metal detector," according to Clews.

The discovered coins were found to be in a large block joined together, increasing the difficulty of establishing what exact kind of coins these are, as well as the total number of them. The hoard has been sent to the in the capital London where conservators are anticipated to take twelve months or more to analyse the coins.

The Roman Baths is now attempting to accumulate 150,000 (180,000 or 237,000) in funding so as to allow them to acquire the coins and place them on display.

Any suggestions or ideas would be very welcomed and appreciated
I'm working on my first article and all the pages I've tried to create have been deleted for reasons that can't be given. If anyone can please help me write this article so that it won't be deleted or questionable I'd be ever so grateful. I'm more than willing to share writing credit.
 * I suggest reading some of the project policies. One of your submissions was "Lets Play"; we do the best we can to be professional in our newswriting. The other failed review for editorialising. That breaches our WN:NPOV policy. --Brian McNeil / talk 06:58, 8 March 2012 (UTC)

Summer of Code 2012
I've added an item to the GSoC page over on the mediawiki wiki; the hope is to get some development more-clearly targetted at Wikinews' workflow.

Most of what I've put up is documenting our rather "Heath Robinson" set of tools for reviewing and publication, which can be found as sub-pages of my page over there.

I would welcome any, and all, feedback regarding this on the relevant talk pages. I have just pointed one of the MW developers at it for feedback too, and I did find that SemanticWiki (a MediaWiki branch) has a great deal of the stuff we could probably do with in extensions. --Brian McNeil / talk 14:45, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

OK, I'm confused........
I grabbed a photo from the Dallas Morning News site which I intend to use via Fair Use..........but Commons doesn't allow people to upload Fair Use images......so where the heck do I put the image? It's on my hard drive.........but, who cares? Bddpaux (talk) 21:17, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

 * We can't fair-use images from competing news organizations; that's a provision in WN:Fair use. Of course, if they're released under a compatible license (<cough>Al Jazeera</cough>), then we can use them but then it's not fair use.  --Pi zero (talk) 22:02, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

Synthesis article
Where is the page where I can choose to write a synthesis article? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jdbethel (talk • contribs) 03:20, 23 March 2012

 * Here are some places that come to mind.
 * There are instructions on the Howdy template, with a tab on the template with a form.
 * There's a page WN:Writing an article.
 * There's an under-construction "article wizard", at WN:Article wizard.

Let's cover Wikimania 2012
This is a call out for anybody at Wikinews who is going to attend Wikimania 2012 (July 12–14). I'm thinking we could put together a team if several of us can be in either New York for the pre-conference "Wikimania Takes Manhattan" or in Washington, D.C. for the main conference. If we can organize in advance, we could do some nice coverage and I bet the larger Wikipedia audience from around the world would be interested. Let's see if we can not only improve upon past coverage, which is available at Portal:Wikimania, but really add some value with the Wikinews medium. Who wants to join me? Crtew (talk) 23:32, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

Sign on below and tell us for which event:
 * Crtew (talk) 23:32, 18 March 2012 (UTC), I'll be at the main conference in D.C. for all three days
 * SarahStierch; women's participation, I'll also hopefully be in New York for Wiki Takes New York and I'll be attending AdaCamp during the hackathon days.

Comments
I would strongly recommend contacting the organisers about this now. You do want to try and get their help. Previous Wikimania conferences have been recorded/streamed, you'd want access to that. And, were you planning any video reportage from Wikimania, you'll need to see about getting a bit of dedicated bandwidth. To my knowledge, there has never been a Wikimania with enough web access to sate all those web-hungry Wikimedians. (in Alexandria the WiFi ran out of IP leases).

I'd add more, but am very time-limited at the moment. --Brian McNeil / talk 14:06, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

Crtew (talk) 14:34, 25 March 2012 (UTC) Thanks for the heads up Brian! I'll contact the organizers. I'm also going to set up a project page for this one event. If anybody else has any other suggestions, let's put them here -- even if you're not volunteering. The more heads, the better! Thanks again, Crtew (talk) 14:34, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

 * A while ago, we tried an experiment that did not go well, in which an article was created to track an event in real time as it unfolded (I think it was that royal wedding in the UK), with someone to incrementally add stuff and an independent reviewer on hand to rapidly review and publish the incremental additions. As I say, it didn't come out well; there was a lot of ill will within the community of the time about it.  However, perhaps it's worth considering whether we could devise a different model that would allow us to have a published article that would include live feeds??  --Pi zero (talk) 14:54, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
 * It was a disaster, and caused a lot of ill-will, due to a fawning respect for the monarchy that was utterly at-odds with NPoV. None of the people who could review it had the stomach to make the ruthless edits required.
 * I'll name no names, but Wikinews would not be the appropriate platform for a "celebration" with one of the Dimblebys presenting it; the Royal Wedding shtick was an attempt to do that in a print form. --Brian McNeil / talk 13:45, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

WaWaWe draft article--removed or missing
A draft article about establishing a weekly Wikinews beat on Water and Waste issues was submitted for review two days ago. It is not listed under any of the categories where we expected to find it. Was it removed, not received, or is it now in process behind a non-public firewall? Or other possible fates unknown. Thanks for any feedback.
 * It was deleted. The given reason was "Obvious Hoax", it equally well could have been deleted as a test page, notnews, or patent nonsense.
 * I've no idea what you (who assumes the royal "we") are hoping to do, but the main namespace isn't a good place to try things out — especially not when you submit a single line "comment" for a formal peer review. Wikinews is not a blog, and what you appear to want to do is, 'write a blog'. --Brian McNeil / talk 10:31, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the feedback. We did not submit a single line comment but a three or four paragraph description of a staff discussion about how to best fit a water and waste news beat to the aims and policies of either WikiNews or WikiPedia. It was not clear to us if either forum is willing to host such a beat. We proposed a news aggregator model, an investigative journalism model and a news feature model profiling industry and government personnel as regular items. Another section of our staff thinks we should simply add water and waste factual information to all place names listed in Wikipedia without attempting to highlight topicality and current events.

A newsbeat is not a web log, nor is it our intention to do blogging. From the rude and unhelpful tone you assume, we have concluded that this forum is not open to all, as you claim, but an exclusive club that is unwilling to try out the idea of establishing a line of trusted stringers focusing on water and waste news items. Nor are you willing to give useful advice to newcomers with a print background on how to obtain community feedback on the idea of focused newsbeats. Nor have you shown the level of professional courtesy that we expect among collegial workers in other fields of intellectual endevour. We are sufficiently answered. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 174.109.162.183 (talk • contribs) 06:41, 26 March 2012

Can I steal your brains?
Hello editors, I would like to start a weekly Serer related news, particularly Serer religious news but have no idea where to begin. I'm familiar with Wikipedia and Commons but totally new to Wikinews. Are these type of articles accepted here or are they destined to the rubbish bin? Please advice. Thanks. Tamsier (talk) 18:20, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm not an editor here, but what is the news in Senegal right now? Maybe that question is the way you can get started here! I'm writing a story right now about the relief efforts for the ammo depot explosion in the Republic of Congo. I'd love to hear what your news is! The thing about Wikinews is, like Wikipedia, you have to write in a neutral way -- NPOV. So if you can write from both sides, you have a story to tell and you're willing to write it in a news style, then Wikinews can be a great match!!! You got me really curious about Senegal right now. Crtew (talk) 04:15, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Thank you so much Crtew. The Senegal Wikinews portal looks dry to me. It looks like it has not been touched for ages by the experienced editors. I don't know why they stopped. The Gambia is slightly newer, but it has gone dry as well and its mainly politics. Its a shame that editors stopped. EDIT: Senegalese news is politically dominated as well . I hate politics. Lol. I like to write about human beings and religion. What you are writing about sounds interesting. I would love to check it out. Thanks.Tamsier (talk) 01:06, 27 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Hi Tamsier, Thank you for writing back about your interests! If I could right now (not enough time), I would write about the Madagascar floods. They have had two huge storms this year. I can't believe nobody has touched that. It's wide open for you to take. I could help out here and there if you want to start.Crtew (talk) 01:29, 27 March 2012 (UTC)

Brazzaville's layout
I added one too many graphics to the Brazzaville article and now the formatting is messed up. Does anybody have any tips on layout? Crtew (talk) 00:10, 28 March 2012 (UTC) After toying with it in various combinations and by elimination, you have to stagger the images L-R-L-R-L-R to places the images on both sides. Not very intuitive, but it works ... Crtew (talk) 02:26, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Packing in a lot of images to an article can be tricky. In addition to staggering images Left/Right, there are some templates for 'slideshow' use of multiple images (see my National Museum reopening article for usage). --Brian McNeil / talk 12:57, 29 March 2012 (UTC)

Badge?
Accredited reporters......has anyone had their badge laminated to wear while doing interviews? I'd love to see a scan/photo of one. I want to get my done at Kinko's or someplace like that. I KNOW FOR A FACT that there was a discussion about that here recently but I can't find it anywhere. Bddpaux (talk) 18:02, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
 * The discusson was about getting professonal ID cards. Regrettably, that fell through. Wikimedia Australia were prepared to provide some cash, and it looked like Wikimedia UK might handle the accounts and ordering of cards. However, there are issues elated to Data Protection, plus the fact that Wikinews is global meaning this should be handled at the top level (i.e. we approve someone being credentialled, and the WMF provides a card). But, I have my doubts that will ever come to pass. --Brian McNeil / talk 12:15, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
 * OK....I understand......I suppose I could just have my Wikinewsie "card" here turned into a badge and/or business cards, if I so wished? Bddpaux (talk) 01:03, 31 March 2012 (UTC)
 * If my laptop hadn't died, I'd happily tweak the card design with your details, but that's going to have to wait. --Brian McNeil / talk 11:50, 31 March 2012 (UTC)
