Bangkok Bombings
ok cool, shall i merge mine into yours?UKWiki 13:26, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Nickname
Isn't the nickname a bit contradictory? :-) --Brian McNeil / talk 16:28, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I like the nickname, hope you're going to stick around and contribute to this, the story on the Bangkok explosions is pretty well written and I've put it up as second lead. --Brian McNeil / talk 16:36, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks!
Thanks for your contributions today, and have a good and prosperous new year! --Brian McNeil / talk 21:50, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
 * interesting stuff, Bangkok hit with further New Year bomb blasts and Bombings reported in Bangkok. Best regards. -Edbrown05 09:08, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Lead
If you check the front page you'll see the second lead is now doubled with the two Bangkok stories and the shopping centre picture is up. --Brian McNeil / talk 11:26, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Thailand article
no sweat. looking forward to more such well-crafted articles from you. best, –Doldrums(talk) 16:15, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

You deserve one of these for the excellent job you've done on the latest story to go in Category:South Thailand insurgency. I sincerely hope we're going to see more of you doing things like this. --Brian McNeil / talk 21:48, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Cambodian ASEAN story
Can you find another source in a non-english language? If it can be processed through a translation service and vaguely backs up the content of the article that's usually good enough to get past most of us. I'd hate to see us lose the story, I found it interesting and amusing. --Brian McNeil / talk 20:32, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

ASEAN
have found another source, see talk page of article. --Mark Talk 20:33, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
 * hmmmm shame to loose the story!! i will see if i can find another --Mark Talk 20:41, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Excellent work!
Nice work on the article, World's defense chiefs meet in Singapore. Very comprehensive and well written. --Jcart1534 22:24, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Ploy images
Hi,

I like them, is there any chance you could write an article on the film release, a bit of background about the film etc? Self-made works get priority on the front page, and an article will certainly get them selected.

--Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 22:21, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

 * I've put it on the main page, great article, you should always write about it if you go to something like that! How did you get in, did you say you were from the press? Or are you a celebrity :-) ? Anyway good work, thanks! --Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 09:06, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Incredible that you wouldn't have written it otherwise... tssss... I'll add it to my list of contributions then [[Image:smiley.png|20px]] . Nice to have a real reporter among us, welcome! --Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 09:47, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Nice job on the Ploy premiere article. Is it safe to assume that you are the same Wise Kwai that is behind this? --SVTCobra 23:33, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Popemobile boarded
Yes, some people like to leave the headline behind with a link to the full story. Others remove all trace of it from shorts. --SVTCobra 19:39, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Oh, I should say that if there is any good content in the short version or good sources, then they should be incorporated into the full article. --SVTCobra 19:46, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

 * I went ahead and made the links, if that is okay? Jcart1534 19:45, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
 * There shouldn't be two articles. See the changes I made. --SVTCobra 23:18, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Atlantis
No problem :) I just thought it was on there for a few hours is all. I guess I misread the addition time. :) DragonFire1024 19:53, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Easy on the sources!
Hi Wisekwai. I noticed you started the Wikinews Shorts: June 12, 2007. I just wanted to comment on the number of sources you listed for the first item. You have six sources listed for a two-sentence story! We shouldn't be collecting sources, but rather only listing ones that were used. The Cite sources states, "Only cite sources used for information - do not add sources if you did not include any information from them." It makes it difficult for users/editors to verify information if there are many sources, which weren't used. Cheers, and my apologies if they were all used, but I didn't have time to go through them! :) Jcart1534 19:28, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

 * No worries! But just to stress, sources shouldn't be added unless specific information was obtained from them. We shouldn't add sources in the hope that someone might use them to expand a story. It just adds confusion. If someone were to add to an article, they should add a source at that time, if they obtained unique information from that source. As for dead sources, we should be careful to select a unique URL from the source, not a main page. There is less chance of it "going dead". We shouldn't add sources to build in redundancy. We can move this to a Policy page discussion if you would like input from other users? In any event, your contributions have been fantastic. Keep it up! Jcart1534 19:50, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Currency article
No Problem. :)I thought it was a good article BTW :) Good Job! DragonFire1024 21:35, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Laos Plot
You beat me to it ;) Bail denied in Laos overthrow plot, Hmong protest. Good job again! DragonFire1024 21:41, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Accessing commons and wikipedia
I know this is hours later, but I am not having the same problem. --SVTCobra 10:25, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Admin Privs
I suspect you'd sail through an admin nomination. Do you think you could make use of the extra buttons, or are you happy as a "mere mortal" editor? :-) --Brian McNeil / talk 14:55, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I answered your response on my talk, but I should probably put something here too. :-) You've done enough that the community would grant you admin privs - I have no doubt about that. However, you have to decide when you think you actually need them. If you start spotting vandalism in Recent Changes and things like that then you're probably needing the privs to clean up when you're about. It isn't mean to be an onerous duty, just a best effort by a bunch of people who trust each other. You? You've earned that trust through your contributions. You've shown yourself open to listening to folks that have been around a bit longer, and you're now at the stage you're well-enough practiced that you can probably do an article and publish in one take. One key thing to remember about Wikinews is that being a sysop isn't some special privilege, it is something that virtually every reasonably trusted editor ends up with. I - and probably 90% of the community - wouldn't care if you only used the buttons once or twice a month. It'd likely be when nobody else is about due to timezone differences, and that is why it is good to have a lot of sysops.
 * As it stands, I think you've done an excellent job "taking over" from my efforts to cover the south Thailand insurgency. We need more reporters like yourself, so stick at it - and when you've seen enough vandalism to want to be able to fix it either nominate yourself or ask me to - I'd be happy to. --Brian McNeil / talk 20:25, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Austin, Texas incident
Thanks for the move. Just FYI, the first stories I saw did indicate the accident as hit-and-run; I wasn't assuming or reading in. :) Lawikitejana 19:08, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

sources in Zimbabwe article
Hi, If you check the sources listed you will see all the information contained in the article is reported in them. CNN is listed their, and the quote given to the Guardian comes from the BBC article. The state media stuff comes from the CNN article. Please read the sources provided and then get back to me. Blood Red Sandman (Talk)   (Contribs) 13:55, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

 * While I was writing this you mentioned AP on the talk page. That's mentioned by one of the listed sources too, think that it is again CNN. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 13:56, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Don't worry about it; to pull it down quickly when it looked dodgy was the right thing to do and I would have done the same. I apreciate what you mean about tracking down originals, though - if I can, I will add them. If not, tough. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 14:00, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

It's
Hi, it's no big deal, but you should be aware that in Brittish English, which the article should conform to as a news story about Scotland's legal system, it's is the possesive form as well as a contracted form of it is. Since the article should conform to Brittish English as I've mention, Ive changed it back to saying it's. Generally speaking, though, go ahead and change it, just beware of UK articles. Blood Red Sandman (Talk)   (Contribs) 06:20, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Don't worry about it. I know plenty of Brits who don't realise (Probably from seeing it so much in other forms of English, I wonder if our possesive commas may one day die out...). Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 06:45, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

great work!

I echo Doldrums' opinion. Great work! (SEWilco 13:07, 29 June 2007 (UTC))

Accreditation
I was wondering... Are you planning to apply for WN:AR? We've just got "wikinewsie.org" and all active accredited reporters will be given accounts on it. --Brian McNeil / talk 17:44, 4 July 2007 (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 Wisekwai. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Wisekwai~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 23:39, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 06:40, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

We haven't seen you in a long time! How're things with you??--Bddpaux (talk) 15:57, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Bombings reported in Bangkok

The Nation reports seven explosions...

--Brian McNeil / talk 13:38, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

BBC News http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/6221177.stm
Also 7 blast so i add this source and write 7 blasts as I did it in Polish edition

Original tag
What's the Original Reporting element in this article? --Brian McNeil / talk 15:05, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
 * The article it was merged with had an original tag, but with the additional sources added, I'm not sure what's original anymore. I couldn't actually be on any of the scenes. About the only thing I think I had that was unique to the early reports was that the countdown had been called off, but I got that from watching TV. This is my first time at Wikinews. I appreciate all the help! Thank you. Wisekwai 16:29, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

World reacts to execution of Saddam Hussein

January 1, 2007

The execution of Saddam Hussein elicited critical statements by governments from around the world and also by non-governmental organisations.

The United States, Australia, Iran and some Polish politicians saw positive effects of the execution. George W. Bush said it was a "milestone" on the way to a democratic Iraq. Also, many Iranian politicians think that the execution was a "victory for the Iraqi people". The Polish foreign minister said he was an opponent of death penalty, but would make an exception in this case. Australian foreign minister Alexander Downer referred to the death of Saddam Hussein as an "important step" on the way towards a historical judgement of Hussein's "tyrannous regime". He thinks that it will lead to an opportunity to strengthen the process of reconciliation.

Other European countries were at odds with this response. These include the U.K., Finland, France, Switzerland, the Vatican and Germany, which stand for the worldwide abolition of the death penalty. The main reason given by them was that even incredibly heinous crimes do not justify execution. The Vatican's spokesperson, Federico Lombardi, said that there was "the risk that it would incite people to seek revenge and produce more violence". Germany's minister of state in the Office for Foreign Affairs, Erler, said that Saddam Hussein's crimes could not be doubted, but the German government would stay with its general attitude of rejecting death penalty.

Russia also expressed regret for the execution. An official of the Russian Office for Foreign Affairs, Michail Kamynin, warned against an intensification of the military and political situation in Iraq and against a rise of ethnical-confessional tensions. Libya ordered a three-day national mourning. Head of state Ghadhafi stopped all celebrations and ceremonies for the Eid al-Adha half-masting all flags on governmental buildings. The Palestinian foreign minister criticised the execution, too. There had often been disagreements, but nevertheless, the execution had been wrong, he said.

The organisation "Human Rights Watch" criticised the proceedings against Hussein as having "shown severe deficiencies". The World Council of Churches expressed its critical attitude towards the execution of Saddam Hussein: "Every time a person's life is taken it is part of a big tragedy." Amnesty international very much criticised the proceedings: the execution was apparently a foregone conclusion. The appeal court had only created the impression of legitimacy in flawed proceedings, they said.

The Council of Europe condemned the execution and called on Iraq to abolish the death penalty.

Meanwhile, at 4:00 a.m. this morning local time (1:00 a.m. (GMT)), the former leader's remains were buried in Awja, close to Tikrit, the home town of Hussein, as reported by CNN.

French agency CNES to release UFO archives on the Internet

December 31, 2006

The French Space Agency will publish its UFO archive online by late January or mid-February. Most of the 6,000 reports have been filed by the public and airline professionals. Jacques Arnould, an official for the French Space Agency, said that the data had accumulated over a 30 year period and that they were often reported to the Gendarmerie.

 * Often they are made to the Gendarmerie, which provides an official witness statement ... and some come from airline pilots - Jacques Arnould

Belgian peacekeepers wounded in Lebanon

December 31, 2006

Two Belgian soldiers, part of the UN peacekeeping force in Lebanon, were wounded Friday after stepping on a cluster bomb during a mine-clearing operation in southern Lebanon. One of the two soldiers stepped on a cluster bomb while clearing a minefield near the village of Majdel Silim. Their injuries were "serious but not life-threatening", a UNIFIL spokesman said, however this was denied by the cabinet of the Belgian Minister of Defence, André Flahaut. One soldier was wounded at the neck, the second was wounded at the foot.

One of the deminers has already left the hospital and was repatriated to Belgium on Saturday. He was first transported to the military hospital at Neder-over-Heembeek, but was later allowed to return home. The other soldier was taken to the hospital of Saida for further examination. He will have to undergo surgery to stabilise his condition before he can be repatriated early next week, minister André Flahaut stated.

The wounded soldiers are part of the units from Meerdaal and Poelkappele, but their identities were not revealed.

There are 374 Belgian soldiers serving with the UN force, known as UNIFIL, stationed near Tibnin in southern Lebanon, 12 kilometers from the Israeli border. Their main tasks are demining, medical support and reconstruction.

Copying
Like most web sites on the net Wikinews has to abide by copyright law. That means you can't copy text from just any website and post it here. You need to check the licensing and see if it is compatible with ours. If no license is shown you should assume that the material cannot be copied.

Also take a look through the links above, I'm not sure how you'd actually go about doing an article mentioning someone's new album release. You would have to source opinions to reviewers to keep wikinews from expressing an opinion on the album per our neutral point of view policy. --Brian McNeil / talk 17:08, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Iowa falls to Texas in Alamo Bowl

December 31, 2006

The Iowa Hawkeyes (6-6) came into the Alamo Bowl as underdogs to the Texas Longhorns (10-3), 18th-ranked and defending national champions. It probably came as a surprise to the entire Alamo Bowl record crowd of 65,875 as Iowa ran out to a 14-0 lead in the first quarter. Iowa almost extended their lead to 21-3 just before the half, but for a touchdown pass called back for an illegal receiver who lined up on the Iowa line of scrimmage.

Texas quarterback Colt McCoy, who began the season as a red-shirt freshman, capped the Texas comeback in the 3rd quarter with a 72-yard pass to tailback Jamaal Charles to take the lead at 20-14.

Tate connected again with Brodell to put Iowa back in the lead, 21-20. Brodell led the Hawks in offence with 6 receptions for 159 yards.

In the fourth quarter, Selvin Young capped a Texas drive by rushing 2 yards to make it 26-21, as the Longhorns failed to make the 2-point conversion. Iowa then marched downfield and Kyle Schlicher kicked a 38-yard field goal to pull Iowa within two points at 26-24 with 11 minutes left in the game.

With just a field goal needed and nearly five minutes to go, Iowa was given a gift when a short 19-yard punt put Iowa in possession near midfield. Iowa coach Kirk Fernetz then tried a bit of trickery which doomed Iowa's hopes. Texas safety Marcus Griffin tackled Dominique Douglas for a 9-yard loss on a reverse wide-receiver pass on first down. Iowa could not convert and had to punt three plays later, and Texas successfully ran out the clock to win the game.

Coach Ferentz immediately claimed the blame for the risky play call. "It's totally my fault. I'm sick over it," Ferentz said. "Guys competed that long and that hard and that put us in a bad situation."

Bangkok hit with further New Year bomb blasts

January 1, 2007 More bombs went off just after midnight (0500 GMT) on New Year's Day in Bangkok, injuring eight people near a shopping mall where hours before a New Year's Eve countdown was cancelled due to a string of six bombings earlier in the evening.

The first bomb exploded at a seafood restaurant on the Saen Saeb Canal near Pratunam Pier just seconds after midnight.

Three foreigners and two Thais were injured. One of the foreigners had her legs amputated by the blast, according to television and local newspaper reports. The foreign tourists were having dinner at the restaurant.

Police said the bomb was hidden in a tire at the pier.

A second bomb exploded in a telephone booth near a pedestrian bridge at CentralWorld, where thousands of people had gathered earlier in the evening for a countdown party and had been urged by authorities to leave the area and go home. Several foreigners were injured and rushed to hospitals.

Another bomb was found and disposed of without incident at Suan Lum Night Bazaar, another late-night venue for tourists.

A possible bomb was investigated at Buddy Bar, a popular music venue on Khaosan Road. It turned out to be a false report. Police had earlier closed the venue and other bars on the street frequented by backpackers, urging people to return to their hotels and guesthouses.

Earlier in the evening, bombs had gone off at six locations across the city, from about 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Twenty-five people were injured and three later died at hospitals from their injuries. The biggest toll was at Victory Monument, where 17 people were injured, two of them dying from their injuries. Other targets were a police booth at Saphan Kwai intersection, where two people were injured, and a market in Khlong Toei, where three people were injured, one fatally. At Seacon Square shopping mall, a bomb was found in a trash can inside the mall and taken to the parking lot, where it exploded without injuring anyone. Police booths on Sukhumvit Soi 62 and in suburban Nonthaburi were also hit, but there were no injuries.

After the bombings, Bangkok Governor Apirak Kosayothin had ordered the cancellation of the countdown celebrations at Central World and Sanam Luang and other smaller ones.

"Due to several bomb explosions in Bangkok and for the sake of peace and security, I would ask all of you to return to your homes now," Apirak told a crowd of around 5,000 people at CentralWorld. Most of the crowd dispersed quickly and calmly.

Army Commander-in-Chief General Sonthi Boonyaratglin ordered soldiers deployed around the capital. Security was intensified on the Metro and Skytrain rail systems. The Skytrain cancelled plans to run all night and closed at midnight as usual. Department stores closed early.

Prime Minister Surayud Chulanont visited victims at a local hospital. He appeared on television looking tense, telling reporters he didn't know who was responsible for the attacks.

Surayud was appointed premier after a coup d'état on September 19 in which the military led by Sonthi ousted prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra.

The Nation newspaper quoted a "security source" as saying "the old power clique" was behind the bombing.

However, there is also the ongoing violence by Muslim separatists in the South Thailand insurgency, which has left 1,900 people dead since 2004.

First off, we really appreciate your contribution.

But sometimes users submit an article from somewhere else, not realizing that Wikinews cannot keep copy-and-paste versions of articles which are published elsewhere under a restrictive copyright. An article created in this way is a copyright violation, and Wikinews policy is to erase these even if they are excellent article ideas.

Another problem which sometimes comes up is press releases. Press releases are sometimes excellent sources, but they do not qualify as unbiased news articles so they can't be published as they are. Two key things to remember about press releases is that they're usually written to represent the viewpoint of an involved party (Thus likely running foul of our Neutral Point of View policy). And second, they are generally covered by copyright which can conflict with our open editing approach.

A better way to get an article on an exciting subject published here is to write an original article following the guidelines described in writing an article, or to write a brief explanation of the subject and include the url address of articles or websites to use as sources.

Thanks again! — Doldrums(talk) 07:33, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Titles
Can you be a bit more "unique" in your choice of titles. Wikinews can never have two articles with the same title so you should bear this in mind when picking a title. Another issue to remember is that you are writing for an international audience and locations can influence whether or not someone is going to read something.

I'd also appreciate if you could look at the changes that have been made to the prodigious contributions you have made today. Sources for a story should be preceded by a == Sources == heading, dates are Monthname DD, YYYY, and categories such as countries and main topics should be put on articles. --Brian McNeil / talk 21:26, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Copyvio
Most of the stories you've copied from other sources were proposed for deletion and can be rewritten on temporary pages. Apparently you misunderstood what Doldrums was trying to tell you: please stop copy-pasting content to Wikinews, it will be reverted and it causes others to waist there time on articles that will get deleted.

I know it can be frustrating to see so many missing stories here, but please obide the rules and allow yourself the time to understand how this site works. We'll hapilly reply to your inquiries.--Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 01:05, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

1 million people welcome 2007 in Sydney

January 1, 2007

A crowd of approximately 1 million has welcomed the new year in Sydney overnight. Many of the crowd had camped out since 6 AM AEDT (7PM UTC) to ensure they had the best vantage point for the fireworks displays at 9 PM and 12 AM. Earlier predictions of rain failed to dampen enthusiastic revellers and fortunately did not eventuate.

According to police, vantage points were Circular Quay and Sydney Opera House closed around 7 PM.

This year's theme was "A diamond night in Emerald City" and celebrated the Sydney Harbour Bridge's diamond anniversary of 75 years which will fall in March.

As usual, the bridge became the centre piece of Sydney's celebrations with a question mark turning into a coat hanger during the 9 PM fireworks show before a diamond appeared at 11 PM.

Entertainment was held in the city throughout the day, culminating in a spectacular fireworks display at midnight. Revellers counted down the final seconds of 2006 with numbers on the side of the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

The festivities are estimated to have cost AUD $4 million and organisers claim their fireworks display is "the largest in the world". Sydney's celebrations were broadcast on television live around the world as other countries prepared their New Year's Eve celebrations.

Despite the large crowd, police made only 58 arrests for offences including offensive conduct, stealing, assaulting police, goods in custody, assault, drink driving and affray.

Ambulance officers were called to 1,139 incidents in Sydney with another 900 in country areas.

New Zealand MP to be present at state funeral of Gerald Ford

January 1, 2007

New Zealand member of Parliament (MP), minister of ethnic affairs, conservation, and housing, the Honourable Chris Carter is to represent New Zealand at the state funeral of the late United States President, Gerald Ford held in Washington.

The state funeral will include the family of President Ford, foreign representatives and senior politicians from America. The funeral is to be held in the Washington National Cathedral in Washington DC, on the morning of January 2, 2007.

Hon Carter, said: "The prime minister [ Helen Clark ] considers it important ... to show at a time of national mourning in the US that we are prepared to send someone in the middle of our summer holidays, when our parliament is not sitting, because we value the relationship."

MP Honourable Trevor Mallard, who made the announcement, said: "President Ford won respect for the decent, down to earth qualities that he brought back to government after assuming the Presidency in 1974 in the difficult circumstances of the aftermath of the Watergate scandal and the resignation of former President Richard Nixon."

The announcement of Hon Carter representing New Zealand overseas is strange because the Right Honourable Winston Peters is the minister of foreign affairs for New Zealand.

After the funeral on the national day of mourning, Hon Carter should meet America's secretary of state, Condoleezza Rice.

Hon Mallard, said: "The United States is a fundamentally important partner for New Zealand. It is appropriate that we mark our respect for the strength of US democracy and the many other enduring values that we share in common with the United States in this way."

Hon Carter left for America last night (NZDT), December 31, 2006.

President Ford was in office for only two years, 1974 - 1976. President Ford took over from President Nixon following the Watergate scandal. President Ford was 93-years-old when he passed on.

American military deaths in Iraq reach 3000

December 31, 2006

The Pentagon announced the death of US Army Spc. Dustin R. Donica on the last day of the year, bringing the number of US troop fatalities in Iraq since the onset of war in 2003 to 3000.

Donica, 22, was killed in small arms fire Thursday while serving in Baghdad.

In a statement from Donica's family, Dustin's father David Donica said, "Dustin had a tremendous sense of duty, both to his family, and his country. He will be missed by his family, and all those that knew him."

While 3000 is a small number compared to most other US military conflicts, this milestone highlights the growing sectarian violence in Iraq and the state of coalition soldiers caught in the middle of it. The War in Iraq faces strong domestic opposition due to military fatalities, a financial cost of more than $350 billion, widespread international opposition, and criticisms of the Bush administration's handling of the war.

“The most painful aspect of the presidency is the fact that I know my decisions have caused young men and women to lose their lives,” said Bush in his final press conference of the year.

Donica, from Spring, Texas, was assigned to the 3rd Battalion, 509th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 4th Airborne Brigade Combat team, 25th Infantry Division in Fort Richardson, Alaska. Among his likes were soccer, rock and vocal trance music, and ham-and-pineapple pizza with Dr. Pepper.

Australian 1976 Cabinet papers released

January 1, 2007

Today the National Archives of Australia released most of the 1976 Cabinet papers of the Fraser government revealing a plot by Palestinians to assassinate the then Israeli Ambassador to Australia and prominent supporters of Israel.

Countering attacks in the 1976 papers was seen to require "specialist elements of the Defence Force" to be trained as police forces were seen as inadequate to the emerging threats. Reform of the Australian intelligence community was also recommended as it was seen as "fragmented, poorly coordinated and haphazardly organised."

Cabinet papers are released to the public after 30 years through the National Archives on the 1st of January.

Boston rings in the new year

January 1, 2007

Last night, 1 million people filed into Boston, Massachusetts to celebrate the 31st Annual First Night celebration. The people who attended the First Night celebration enjoyed live musical performances, ice sculptures, and finally, fire works.

Tonight was a great night for the ice sculptures and the people, as temperatures where around 40 degrees Fahrenheit (4 degrees Celsius).

At City Hill Plaza, Mayor Thomasn Menino made an appearance and held a countdown to noon for younger people who might not be able to stay up for the festivities that were to happen later in the night.

First Night celebrations were also held in Chatam, Fall River, New Bedford, and other towns and cities.

Slovenia adopts euro

January 1, 2007

On January 1 2007, Slovenia officially joined the and adopted the  as its new official currency. At the same time,, which were available as a "starter kit" from December 15, became legal tender everywhere in the Eurozone.

A period of dual circulation, when both the former currency, the and the euro will be accepted, will only last until January 14. All banks are going to exchange tolars into euros at the official rate of 239.64 SIT per 1 EUR at no commission until March 1, 2007. After that date it will be possible to exchange tolar banknotes (unlimited) and coins (until 2016) only at the Bank of Slovenia.

Most already dispense euro banknotes with the rest to follow in the following days. Commercial banks automatically converted all tolar accounts into euros and online banking systems will be accessible to their users again on January 3. Even though January 1 and 2 are non-working days in Slovenia, many banks will be opened from 10:00 to 14:00 on both days, available only for one service: exchanging tolars to euros and larger euro banknotes into smaller units.

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:
 * Neutral point of view - tell every side to a story in a fair and balanced way
 * Cite sources - everything in a Wikinews article must be sourced
 * Introduction - overview of the site
 * Writing an article - how to write and publish a complete article
 * Content guide - what's suitable for Wikinews
 * Contents - the contents page.
 * Existing articles need expanding and checking for spelling and mistakes
 * The front page lead articles often need updating
 * Developing stories need finishing and publishing
 * Discussions need your input
 * And of course, stories need writing!

Here are some other hints and tips:

 * I would recommend that you get a username. You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikinews, but creating an account is quick, free and non-intrusive, requires no personal information, and there are many benefits of having a username.  (If you edit without a username, your IP address is used to identify you instead.)

 * When using talk pages, please sign your name at the end of your messages by typing four tildes (~~). This will automatically produce your username (or IP address) and the 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 10:09, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Indonesian passenger plane crashes in mountains

January 5, 2007

On the 2nd of January, relatives waiting for news about the Adam Air jetliner broke down in tears after learning that senior Indonesian officials erroneously reported the Boeing 737's charred wreckage had been found and that a dozen people may have survived.

A Boeing 737-400 flying for low-cost carrier Adam Air has crashed into the mountains of Indonesia's Sulawesi missing during its flight from Surabaya, Java to Manado, Sulawesi, Indonesia amid bad weather. The plane serving as flight number KI-574 was carrying 96 passengers and a crew of 6.

The domestic flight disappeared and vanished off late Monday about an hour before the intended landing time. The captain managed to send out two distress signals, but contact was then lost. Before the ill-fated planed vanished from radar, Singapore's satellite had picked up a distress signal from the plane.

According to airline spokesman Hartono, there are now plans to evacuate the survivors to Makassar. "The plane is in ruins," said First Air Marshal Eddy Suyanto. "The plane was found around 20 kilometers from Polewali, in the mountains." Later, the statement was rebutted by Marshall Eddy Suyanto himself and the Minister of Transportation Hatta Radjasa.This statement was an erroneously reported. Government had apologized to the public for this statement. This have been made an anguish to the relatives and family members.

Six days after plane crashed, wreckage of the ill-fated plane has still not been found. Indonesia has widened the hunt around Sulawesi Island. Indonesian rescuer was assisted by US satellite and Singapore Air Force.

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 Laurent Van Winckel. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Laurent Van Winckel~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.

Broncos player Williams shot to death, police looking for suspect

January 3, 2007

Police are still looking for the suspect that killed Denver Broncos cornerback Darrent Williams, 24, in a drive by shooting January 1. Williams was killed by a single gunshot wound to the neck.

Police say there was a disagreement at a nightclub birthday party for Kenyon Martin, a forward with the Denver Nuggets National Basketball Association team, and Williams and his two friends left. His two friends, a man and a woman, were hit along with him.

The suspect was in a white 1998 Chevrolet Tahoe. Police said earlier they where looking for a Tahoe or Suburban with dark-tinted windows.

Williams teamates honoured him at a memorial service today.

"We'll have a memorial service on Wednesday with our players and coaches and Darrent's family," Broncos coach Mike Shanahan said at a press conference on Tuesday. "I don't think he had a guy that wasn't his friend," added Shanahan. "That's the way he lived life. He always had a smile on his face."

"[Receiver Javon Walker] just went through a tragic experience," Shanahan said about one of the other injured passengers. "A lot of times when somebody has that happen to them, they wonder why it (wasn't them). That's just human nature and obviously the counselors are talking with him about that. It's a process. It takes some time."

The entire Denver Broncos will attend the funeral service for Williams on Saturday in his hometown of Fort Worth, Texas, according to Shanahan.

The investigation remains ongoing.

New UN Secretary General assumes post

January 1, 2007

Ban Ki-moon, South Korean foreign minister, officially assumed his post as United Nations Secretary-General today.

Ban, the eighth UN Secretary-General, is also the first Asian to serve in this office in 35 years.

Ban, 62, grew up on the Korean peninsula in the midst of the Korean War that divided the region. He promises to bring peace to the North Korean nuclear conflict.

Along with North Korea, Ban faces a litany of difficult issues including the genocide in Darfur, tensions in the Middle East, an international campaign against AIDS and poverty in line with his predecessor Kofi Annan's Millennium Goals, a push to increase the size of the Security Council, and calls for ethics reform within the United Nations.

In his inaugural address, Ban said, "My first priority will be to restore trust."

"The United States will rely on his leadership to help steer the UN organization through the reforms already underway," said White House spokesman Scott Stanzel on Sunday, "and to propel it even further on the path of reform."

Ban will temporarily reside in a hotel in New York City until renovations on his official residence are completed as part of a modernization plan approved by the UN General Assembly.

Young child dies imitating Hussein's execution

January 1, 2007

A Pakistani boy got his older sister to hang him in the same manner as Saddam Hussein.

Mubashar Ali, 9, hanged himself, while re-enacting Hussein's hanging with the help of elder sister, 10, after tying a rope to a ceiling fan and his neck in his home in the Punjab district of Rahimyar Khan on Sunday, said a local police official.

The father of the deceased boy said that his children had been watching the video of Saddam Hussein's execution on television and attempted to imitate the hanging as other family members thought they were playing in another room.

"My wife and sister rushed to rescue Mubashar when children cried for help from the adjoining room, but he died due to hanging," said Alamgir Paracha, father of Mubashar.

Police said that the death was accidental and a case of parental negligence.

"It was an accident which happened due to carelessness of parents," said district police chief Sultan Ahmad.

Mob protests Saddam Hussein's execution

January 2, 2007

Sunnis upset over the hanging of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein began protesting Monday, the Associated Press reported.

A mob in Samara, a town in the Sunni-dominated region of Iraq, tore off pieces of a bombed-out Shiite shrine, called the Golden Dome, which was attacked by extremists 10 months ago. They also carried a mock coffin and photos of Hussein, a Sunni who was executed by the majority-Shiite government on Saturday.

Many were angered by a three-minute video, apparently shot on a cellphone and making its way around the Internet, that showed Hussein taunted by his Shiite executioners moments before he dropped to his death.

In the video, those gathered to witness Hussein's execution could be heard chanting, "Muqtada! Muqtada! Muqtada!" for Muqtada Sadr, whose radical Shiite militia has been known to hunt down Sunni Arabs and kill them.

At least one photo taken by the Associated Press showed a protestor Monday with a hand covered in red, made to look like blood.

The protest followed Hussein's burial the day before in his birthplace of Al Auja, where mourners also expressed outrage for the hanging. "Today they proved themselves that the trial and the execution were mere retaliation and not justice," one mourner told the Los Angeles Times. "It is clear now against whom we should retaliate."
