Fernando Alonso wins 2007 Malaysian Grand Prix

April 8, 2007

McLaren-Mercedes drivers Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton placed first and second in the FIA Formula One 2007 Petronas Malaysian Grand Prix on the Sepang International Circuit, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

From the start to the end of the race, the two "silver arrows" held the lead against their competitors from Ferrari. Alonso created a comfortable gap, while Hamilton held off Felipe Massa and Kimi Räikkönen. Massa pushed very hard on the rookie, who was driving in only his second race, trying to overtake him, but made a crucial mistake before the first pit-stop and found himself off the track. Massa finally finished fifth, behind Nick Heidfeld, a BMW Sauber team driver. Räikkönen showed much more careful driving than Massa, finishing third.

Giancarlo Fisichella, driving for Renault, came sixth, with his young teammate Heikki Kovalainen eighth. Jarno Trulli, from Toyota, split the two Renaults in seventh.

Alexander Wurz, from Williams-Toyota, finished ninth, while his teammate, Nico Rosberg, who had been driving in sixth place, retired following the second round of pit stops due to engine failure.

Mark Webber, from Red Bull-Renault, completed the top ten, making his first finish in the Malaysian Grand Prix, following retirements in his 5 previous seasons.

Hmm, copyio
Is anyone else seeing a very similar article on here to the Guardian source in the article (copied in below.  *

The title of the article is one word different and although the article isnt copied and pasted im seeing very similar stuff. Can anyone else see this or is it just me??--Mark Talk 10:04, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

I asked on IRC, and Brianmc agreed saying that "the opening of ours is almost a rewrite with a lot of "borrowed" phrasing. I suspect written from that source and the others just added." Brian | (Talk) | New Zealand Portal 10:29, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

So this means what for us - is it ok or does it need a re-write??--Mark Talk 10:35, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I think it needs a rewrite, I don't think we would get away with this. Thanks for noticing this Markie, I quite often forget to check sources for copyvio Brian | (Talk) | New Zealand Portal 10:41, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Well done for re-writing the first para but i think the whole thing needs changeing. This para is from the guardian article

Yiannis Evangelou, the head of Greece's association of travel and tourist agencies, said the Sea Diamond's rescue operation, which he watched from a nearby ferry, was ``exemplary.''

and this is from the WN article Yiannis Evangelou, the head of Greece's association of travel and tourist agencies, stated that: the Sea Diamond's rescue operation, which he watched from a nearby ferry, was ``exemplary.

very similar me thinks. Anyway i would change it myself but this is my last for today (probs). You may also like to look at other contribs by the user who statred this artilce as at a quick glance they also look very similar to their sources. Sorry im leaving a mess and running --Mark Talk 12:06, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Sorry!
It won't happen again, it was my second article and i guess i wasn't comprising enough sources. I didn't have enough time for a rewrite thx for helping. Sorry again. --Ajindustries 06:26, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Afghan translator reported killed by Taliban captors

April 8, 2007

An Afghan interpreter, Ajmal Naqshbandi, kidnapped and held since March 5 by the Taliban in Afghanistan, was reported killed Sunday, according to a spokesman for the group. Naqshbandi was taken hostage in Helmand Province, along with Italian reporter Daniele Mastrogiacomo and their driver, Syed Agha. Mastrogiacomo was freed March 20 in a controversial hostage exchange, while Agha was killed by the Taliban early in his captivity.

The exchange of  reporter Mastrogiacomo for five Taliban prisoners was criticized, by security experts, as a precedent that could encourage further kidnappings. It was thought originally that Naqshbandi was also released as part of the exchange deal, but was later revealed by the Taliban that he was not released.

Mastrogiacomo and his editor at La Repubblica, Ezio Mauro, had made several appeals to the Afghan government to do what it could to secure the release of Naqshbandi. "This has already cost the life of Sayed Agha...we ask President Karzai to do all he considers just and possible to save [Naqshbandi's] life," said Mastrogiacomo and Mauro in their latest appeal.

The Taliban are holding two French aid workers and three Afghan colleagues, kidnapped last week in Nimroz Province, and are threatening to decide their fate next week. Ransom demands or deadlines have not yet been reported.

Afghan president Hamid Karzai, meanwhile, has ruled out any further exchange deals with the Taliban.

A BBC correspondent in Afghanistan reported that there was outrage in Afghanistan over the exchange deal that saw the safe release of Mastrogiacomo. Afghans were incensed that the government not only gave in to Taliban demands, but would do so to save a foreigner and not an Afghan.

Talk:Afghan translator reported killed by Taliban captors

From the end of the first paragraph: "was reported killed Sunday by a Taliban spokesman."

I can't tell whether this is supposed to mean that he was killed on Sunday by the Taliban spokesman, or if the Taliban spokesman reported on Sunday that he has been killed. This should probably be clarified. —Zachary talk 15:25, 8 April 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 Rishireddy. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Rishireddy~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.

Hi, I switched the duplicate tag over to the other article - I originally did it the other way round as 2007_Cricket_World_Cup linked to it. I'm not sure what the convention is though - should it be seeding or order of innings? Pilchard 16:11, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, thanks. :) Thought it was a bit odd the way round it was but didn't want to cause a fuss so was asking an admin what the protocol was. Re: which way round they should be, I'm generally doing it alphabetically... I don't think there's been any general trend as to how it's done. The guy who made it the other way round put another game as Bangladesh vs Australia, so I don't think he's using any particular method. Cheers. AllynJ 16:16, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Zach Johnson wins 2007 Masters Golf Tournament

April 8, 2007

Zach Johnson won the 2007 Masters Golf Tournament in Augusta, Georgia Sunday. His score of +1 over par (289) is the second highest score ever recorded for the Masters. He was two strokes ahead of three runners up, Tiger Woods, Retief Goosen, and Rory Sabbatini.

This is Johnson's first win in a Major Championship, and second PGA win. He finished in 17th place in the 2005 PGA Championship, but was cut from the British Open three years in a row. Johnson netted $1,305,000 USD for this win.

Tiger Woods, four-time Masters winner and score record holder for the tournament, said "This one's not disappointing, I threw this tournament away on two days when I had two good rounds and I [finished] bogey, bogey. So four bogeys in the last two holes basically cost me the tournament." Woods failed to finish any of the four rounds below par.

Too right i'm only a concerned user, I suppose i'm involved but this doesn't mean things can't come out about this.

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

MLB: Twins turn the tables on White Sox

April 9, 2007

The Minnesota Twins, after suffering a cold loss at an even colder U.S. Cellular Field to the Chicago White Sox on Saturday, needed to heat up their offense for the final game of the series, and with help from Cy Young winner Johan Santana and AL MVP Justin Morneau, they did just that.

Starting pitcher Santana started slow, giving up an unusual three walks in the first couple innings, but turned things around after that, giving up just one hit in seven innings pitched, and throwing nine strikeouts. White Sox starter John Danks struck out six, but gave up 4 of the Twins' six hits, plus a three-run homer off the bat of Justin Morneau in the fourth.

The White Sox would respond by hitting a home run of their own, a solo shot off the bat of Juan Uribe in the eighth inning, but the Twins would hold them to just that one run, as closer Joe Nathan picked up the save.

Friday's postponed game will likely be rescheduled for the weekend of July 6, the next time the Twins play the White Sox in Chicago.

The White Sox, now 2-3, are hitting the road to Oakland for a three-game series against the Athletics starting tomorrow. The White Sox are 4-23 in the past six years at the McAfee Coliseum, and hope their starting pitcher Jose Contreras will bounce back after a rough opening day loss.

The Twins, now 4-1, will head back to Minneapolis to face the Yankees, with Sidney Ponson making his debut for the Twins.

Box score
W: Santana (2-0) L: Danks (0-1) S: Nathan (3/3)

welcome and thank you for ur interest in contributing to Wikinews. reg. ur query; while a candidate announcing dropping out or well sourced speculation of dropping out is certainly news, i feel that a posting on the blog of a non-notable rival candidate does not make for "well sourced". if this information can be corroborated with reports in independent and mainstream sources such as newspapers, then i think an article is indicated, not otherwise. a look thro' the introductory links above will also help you get a better feel for what kind of content is appropriate for Wikinews. in particular.

MLB: Upcoming Tribe home games moved to Milwaukee

April 9, 2007

Major League Baseball is moving the upcoming Anaheim Angels at Cleveland Indians series to Miller Park in Milwaukee after snow and cold has led to the cancellation of the Tribe's four-game home opener against the Seattle Mariners at Jacobs Field. The games, which were rescheduled to be played in double-headers on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, will need to be made-up later this season. A venue change was needed to prevent more postponed games; cold temperatures in Cleveland are forecasted throughout the week, and precipitation is expected Wednesday.

The snow started falling Friday, the day of the Indians home opener against the Mariners, and never let up. After three "snow delays", the game was postponed, just one out away from being considered an "official game". The ground crew has been working nonstop, on Saturday clearing 10 inches off the field only to have it begin to snow heavily just hours before the game, leading to another postponement.

This is an unbelievable situation; We've had snow, we've had cold weather, but not everything at once, backing it up from day to day to day. The great uncertainty is still the lake-effect [snow] and the weather. Until the temperature gets above freezing, we're not going to be able to do anything. Obviously the field underneath is iffy, at best, with all this snow and the way everything played out, trying to get the field ready. Everybody's going to pitch, but it's just a matter of when. The challenge is to keep these guys ready and know when to have them throw a side. Obviously, they can come in and play catch. With a foot of snow on the field, no one's going outside to play catch.

Further complicating matters is the fact that Seattle is not scheduled to return to Cleveland during the regular season, so make-up games would need to be played during the teams' off-days. The Tribe, who haven't played since Wednesday's loss to the White Sox, haven't been resting either. All players reported Sunday for indoor practice. Cleveland outfielder David Dellucci said "I've been trying to get a partner to play long toss on the field, and nobody wants to throw with me. I think this is the first time in my career I've wanted to throw and no one wanted to. Usually, it's the other way around."

Project Video Wikinews
Hey Zanimum,

Welcome to Project Video Wikinews!

Just so other members know who to contact for certain tasks, are there any specific parts of the project you are interested in? Writing a script? Editing? Presenting?

By the looks of things you are interested in finding a story/ reasearching or, writing the script. If you are, could you start to have a look for a story which could readily be investegated and discussed in much detail. The program will hopefully present stories in as much depth as a 60 minutes story. Don't know what 60 minutes is (the Australian version), it looks into stories at MUCH depth. If you want to see one 60 minutes story, go to http://youtube.com/watch?v=8DWZcf_GLWY

Please look for a story which is currently a major INTERNATIONAL issue or, is a small, local story which is heart-touching.

Thanks --Symode09 16:51, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

 * While this is an admirable goal of quality, perhaps it's a little too much? Most stories that I could see people reporting on are somewhere inbetween. A protest, a local business issue, interviews, a furry convention even. But it's hard to land big stories unless you just so happen to be at their heart. The only international story that hit my hometown was the arrest of alleged terrorists. Otherwise, nothing really world-stage worth has happened in my town of 400,000. --  Zanimum 21:01, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

We should at least upload the second video to commons IMO for easy access Wiki wide. DragonFire1024 00:56, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

How could you embedd a video / insert html code into a page? --Symode09 07:00, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
 * The short answer is you can't (in wikinews. Well actually I lie about that, but the only method currently is a very very bad idea), for really really good reasons. Basically (to do it in a good way) someone would need to create a (php) extention for mediawiki that inserts the code. P.S. DF said something about you having a new media player. what's the stopry about that? Bawolff ☺☻ 05:22, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
 * see MediaWiki extensions. If you're referring to youtube embedation, that already exists but isn't enabled here (for example - mw:Extension:YouTubeTag among others). Basically what it would theoretically look like is similiar to a DPL. something like image:foo.ogg, and the <video> tags would be replaced by whats on this page. Bawolff ☺☻ 05:37, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

take, especially for a newcomer. but u'll have to acknowledge and help fix such mistakes if they're found. it's especially troubling that u give misleading source information. it's a big problem if we cannot trust you to contribute to wikinews and keep to its policies. –Doldrums(talk) 10:16, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

 * i'm not sure u do understand. one article, the Quantas one, remains unresolved and needs your answers. ur edit to the ANZAC article, where you added what appears to be false information and then published the article, remains unexplained. i know u r focusing on other things but we cannot leave the Quantas article as it is. it has to be fixed. u will find it very hard to contribute to wikinews if some of ur contributions look suspicious and you refuse to clarify issues about them.
 * btw, the huge image on ur userpage needs to be fixed. on Firefox2/WinXP, atleast, it blocks access to tabs and other links providing Wikinews functionality. –Doldrums(talk) 11:56, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Continuous removal of tags and continuous creation of copyrighted material can get you blocked. And I don't want to see that happen. Please follow the rules. DragonFire1024 08:23, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

applying for grants
i saw this and am concerned about it. pls keep in mind that you do not represent Wikinews or the Wikimedia Foundation. an appeal on behalf of Wikinews, at the very least, should only be initiated after letting a broad section of Wikinewsians as well as the Foundation know about it. i am concerned because i do not believe you are sufficiently knowledgable or experienced to do these things on your own. pls discuss such matters widely in the project (in particular involve those experienced with such matters, for eg. Eloquence or IlyaHaykinson) as well as with the Foundation before approaching an outside agency on behalf of Wikinews. at this point i'd strongly suggest you post a note on cooler and contact the Foundation explaining what you've done so far. –Doldrums(talk) 11:20, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Please check the user names and real names on this list. They are mixed-up. You had mine wrong (which I removed completely) and obviously DragonFire1024 should be Jason. Jcart1534 14:24, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Ouch!

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 Maestro.gandhi. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Maestro.gandhi~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)

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) 06:34, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

Welcome!

81.178.15.211, welcome to Wikinews! Thank you for your contributions I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Our key policies - if you read anything, read these! Here a few pointers to help you get to know Wikinews: There are always things to do on Wikinews:

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 12:46, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Iraqis demonstrate on fourth anniversary of Baghdad's fall

April 9, 2007

On the fourth anniversary of Baghdad's fall to United States forces, tens if not hundreds of thousands of Iraqis marched peacefully in protest of the continued occupation. Wearing Iraqi flags, demonstrators marched from Kufa to Najaf chanting "Get out, get out occupier!" Many were dancing through the streets as police kept an eye on the proceedings and lined the route.

The rally was largely Shi'ite, as it had been ordered by controversial cleric Muqtada al-Sadr. Leaflets were scattered about, reading "Yes, Yes to Muqtada!" and "Yes, Yes to Iraq!" Some demonstrators shouted "we obey your call," seemingingly in response to al-Sadr's statements on Sunday.

The enemy that is occupying our country is now targeting the dignity of the Iraqi people. After four years of occupation, we have hundreds of thousands of people dead and wounded.

Al-Sadr called the demonstration in a statement that was distributed in Najaf yesterday. In the statement he ordered for his supporters to stop attacking their fellow Iraqis and instead work to fight the American occupiers. He also encouraged the Iraqi army and police to stop cooperating with America. "You, the Iraqi army and police forces, don't walk alongside the occupiers, because they are your archenemy," the statement said. "God has ordered you to be patient in front of your enemy, and unify your efforts against them - not against the sons of Iraq."
