2010 BRIT Awards highlights

February 19, 2010 The 2010 BRIT Awards, presented by the British Phonographic Industry, is an annual award ceremony for music artists. This year, the competition took place in the Earls Court Exhibition Centre in London, England. The event started taking place in 1980, with this year's event being the 30th BRIT Awards. This year, the programme was broadcast live - although with a short delay to allow censorship of strong language - on ITV1 from 2000-2200 GMT on Tuesday. 5.8 million viewers watched it, which was an audience share of 21.9%.

The main presenter of the programme was British comedian Peter Kay, although various other celebrities also presented awards, including actor Andy Serkis, musician Melanie Brown, singer Shirley Bassey, television and radio presenter Jonathan Ross, actor Idris Elba, singer Geri Halliwell, television presenter Cat Deeley, comedian Alan Carr, singer Mika, fashion designer and film director Tom Ford, former glamour model Samantha Fox, musician Noddy Holder and musician and actress Courtney Love. Fearne Cotton was also a backstage presenter during the event. There was also an after show highlights programme broadcast on ITV2, immediately after the programme on ITV1 had finished, from 2200-2300 GMT. Presenting on the programme was Rufus Hound and Caroline Flack. BBC Radio 1 also had continuous official coverage on the station throughout the day of the awards, with disc jockeys Scott Mills and Greg James hosting a programme on the station at around the time of the award ceremony.

Various artists, all of which were BRIT Award nominees, performed during the ITV1 programme. Lily Allen, JLS and Kasabian were amongst the performers. American musician Lady Gaga said that "[t]his is for Alexander McQueen", who died on February 11, 2010, before performing two of her tracks - Telephone and Dance in the Dark. Dizzee Rascal and Florence and the Machine performed a duet entitled You've Got the Dirtee Love, which was a merger of two songs - You've Got the Love, which was originally recorded by The Source and Candi Staton - and later covered by Florence and the Machine - and Dirtee Cash, which was originally performed by Dizzee Rascal.

After Jay-Z and Alicia Keys performed their song Empire State of Mind, Cheryl Cole performed her track, Fight For This Love, although the performance featured excerpts from Show Me Love, a track that was originally recorded by Robin S.

Lady Gaga won all three awards that she was nominated for, including "International female solo artist", "International breakthrough act" and "International album", the latter being for The Fame. In one of her acceptance speeches, she said: "Thank you, thank you so so much. I love my fans. Thank you. My fans in the UK, thank you."

When accepting the award for "British male solo artist", rapper Dizzee Rascal stated: "It's about time as well." Music group JLS were nominated for three awards and won two of them - "British breakthrough act" and "British single". Group member Oritsé Williams stated in the acceptance speech: "We never ever thought this would happen, you've made our dreams come true." Kasabian was given the award for "British group". Lily Allen, who was wearing an orange wig during the award ceremony, received the award for "British female solo artist". In her acceptance speech, she declared: "Oh my god. I only wore this orange wig 'cause I though it'd make it harder for them to find me, the cameramen, and catch my disappointed face."

British group Florence and the Machine won the "Mastercard British album" award for the album Lungs. Florence Welch of the group accepted the award, stating: "Thanks so much for having me back. Cheers! [...] There are so many people that help me make this album and so many people who supported it, people like you." The award for "BRITs performance of 30 years" went to former group the Spice Girls for their performance of Wannabe/Who Do You Think You Are. The award for "International male solo artist" went to rapper Jay-Z.

Former British group Oasis were awarded with the honour of "BRITs album of 30 years", for their album (What's the Story) Morning Glory?. Former group comrade Liam Gallagher came onto the stage to accept the award and told the viewers: "Listen kids. I wanna thank Bonehead, Quiggs, Alan White... the best fucking fans in the world. Live forever." He then threw his microphone and the trophy into the crowd and walked off the stage. Presenter Peter Kay then came on and said about Gallagher: "What a knobhead."

At one point during the programme, a pre-recorded video with Prince Harry of Wales in it was shown. In the video, Prince Harry said: "You'll be pleased to know that I'm not gonna sing, but only because I don't want to show up the next act. The BRITs is a celebration of all that is totally outstanding and unique about British music. But what's less well known about the BRITs is the fantastic work it does raising millions of pounds for the BRIT trust which has benefited thousands of young people to develop their talents and generally enrich our society. Well done on all you've achieved. I hope you have a fantastic evening."

The "Critic's choice" award was given to British music artist Ellie Goulding. The "Outstanding contribution award" was won by British musician Robbie Williams, who performed a medley of thirteen of his songs at the end of the programme - Let Me Entertain You, Supreme, Millennium, Feel, Everything Changes (originally performed by Take That, the group that Williams was formerly a member of), Angels, No Regrets, Bodies, Come Undone, Morning Sun, Rock DJ and Rudebox.

Libya and Switzerland to meet about visa bans

February 18, 2010

Libya and Switzerland have reportedly agreed to meet in an effort to resolve a diplomatic row about.

of Switzerland and Moussa Koussa of Libya will meet in the presence of of Spain. All three are the for their respective countries. The meeting comes at the urging of Malta and Italy.

Libya announced on Tuesday that it has suspended and/or revoked visas given to citizens of the of Europe. Four Italian citizens have been detained at the pending deportation, as their visas have been revoked.

Confirming the situation, a Libyan official told : "This is right. This decision has been taken. No visas for Europeans, except Britain."

Malta has had eight citizens turned back. One of these told  of Malta, "They treated us like hostages, not even allowing us out of the room to stretch our legs."

The released a statement saying it "deplores the unilateral and disproportionate" action by Libya and that affected nations will consider an "appropriate reaction."

"The Commission also regrets that travellers who legally obtained visas before the suspension measure were refused entry when arriving in Libya," said EU commissioner for Home Affairs,.

Libya and Switzerland have been in a diplomatic row for many months. In July 2008, the Swiss for two days detained Libyan leader Muammar al-Gaddafi's son, Hannibal, after hotel staff in Geneva complained of being assaulted. Hannibal was given a suspended sentence and released.

Since then, Libya has withdrawn more than 5 billion (3.6 billlion) from Swiss banks and cut of oil exports to Switzerland. Libya then detained two Swiss businessmen and sentenced one to 16 months of prison on visa violation charges.

In November, 2009, Switzerland asked Schengen nations to restrict Libyan visas. Subsequently, Libyan Prime Minister and other officials have been denied Schengen visas.

Italy came down on Switzerland, saying the Swiss must "resolve this bi-lateral issue ... but not at the expense of everyone else."

Sawsan Chebli, a senior (DGAP) said that, "The EU is Libya’s greatest trade and export partner. This is a leverage the EU could use. However, Italy and other EU member states with close relations with Libya in the past have shown that they are not interested to spoil their relations with Libya whatever Gaddafi’s action may be. That is not likely to change. And the problem is that Gaddafi knows that he is able to divide the EU."

"The Italians care very little about the EU or other states when it comes to business relations," Chebli added.

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 Ashesh1971. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Ashesh1971~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.

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 GilliamJF. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name GilliamJF~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 23:18, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Handy template and gadget
Hey there. (Sorry I didn't welcome you back sooner.)

Thought I'd put in a good word for a handy template we've only had for a little over a month. It's got the same name as a notoriously pointless legacy template from the ancient past of wiki software: w. It uses one or two parameters like a   but There's also a neat gadget Microchip08 whipped up so that when you look at a page, if there's a w link on it that links locally, the link is underlined in green. --Pi zero (talk) 23:26, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
 * it checks for a local target first, and only goes to Wikipedia if no local target is found; and
 * if it does link to Wikipedia, it acts like w:Template:Sec link auto in that from the secure server it links to the secure server. (I haven't wired it to do anchors, though; they don't seem to fit into the intended purpose of w.)

Request to review

Power line to Japanese nuclear plant completed
The final quotes in the article are not as long as shown in the sources. The one prior to the last one isn't even a quote. Do you have another source to say they did say that. Also I think you should reword to be similar to the actual quote in the source. -- Nascar 1996  (talk • contribs) 01:19, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I intended for the quotes to be only partial compared to the sources, since I think it's generally better for the article to not be entirely dependent on quotes for its content. On the other hand, the BBC seems to have modified its article since I looked at it, and it's taken out some of the quotes I lifted from it. I've added some more sources to cover that. C628 (talk) 01:30, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I seen that. After a final review over the article to check for any mistakes it will be published since everythings sourced. I seen your edits in the recent changes. -- Nascar 1996  (talk • contribs) 01:35, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

democracy
Re Not wanting to argue but "democracy" is mentioned in the source.

"The referendum, which calls for judicial oversight of elections and limited presidential terms, was the first step to bring Egypt closer to a democracy after decades of corrupt one-party rule."

The date has changed on the article, but it is the same one I used. Regards, Mattisse (talk) 22:25, 21 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, blast, I never even saw the text on that article, only the video. That appears to also be where a bit I removed because I couldn't find it in the sources came from...sorry about that. Feel free to re-add that. C628 (talk) 22:30, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Re Bob Dylan plays first concert in Vietnam
What you removed (as far as I can tell) is sourced by. There are no videos in the sources, or if there are, they are not necessary to source the article. Also, the quotebox is in the article and is sourced by I hope you don't mind that I restored the quotebox, although the other sourced material you removed I will just leave out. Thanks, Mattisse (talk) 21:11, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, yeah, the quotebox is fine. I'd removed the Examiner-sourced stuff because I don't consider the Examiner to be a reliable source, since it's written by random people (kinda like Wikinews), but as far as I can tell it's not reviewed or edited by anyone. C628 (talk) 21:21, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, OK. I wasn't familiar with the source, and assumed it was as reliable as any for such things. It wasn't really obviously unreliable, like the National Enquirer, and I took it at face value. Normally, I would have been more thorough, but I really ought to go deal with this personal stuff. (Damn Internet's so appealing). DEN  DODGE  21:28, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Greg Kohs writes for the Examiner. And they let me in, too (although I declined to join because I only applied to see if I could get in). It's like a Wikinews that reviews users' "experience" before giving them an account.  — fetch · comms  03:45, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

"Last night" on the main page
Re this, just a reminder that WN:ML says "Please remember to not use time-sensitive phrasing in Main Page leads, such as "yesterday" or "today" – the leads are sometimes around for several days after publication, and the phrasing becomes out of date quickly." And, yes, this is virtually the only thing I bother doing on Wikinews these days... Regards, Bencherlite (talk) 15:53, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

Hi. Just a note, a couple of slips that got past review on this one. --Pi zero (talk) 14:14, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

"quiet" train car
Yes, this is a name - File:Quiet.car.jpg. I restored the phrase "quiet car" at the article over here if you don't mind - if you find it vague, feel free to rephrase, but I think it's important for this news. --Gryllida (talk) 11:39, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I do mind, it's factually inaccurate. Amtrak only operates designated quiet cars on some of its corridor routes; the train this happened on is a long-distance route that doesn't have a quiet car. I don't know why the rest of the media insists on calling it one, but that's dead wrong. If you look at Amtrak's website, its page on Northeast Regional corridor service, it explicitly notes that there's a designated quiet car. If you look at the page for the Coast Starlight, that's not present. The way the article is now is wrong. C628 (talk) 12:02, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

How did you find "Related news"?
I looked and looked for Related news for Brazil spots unknown tribe of indigenous people in Amazon jungle. What was your technique in finding those? Thanks, Mattisse (talk) 23:20, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
 * I didn't add those, user:William S. Saturn did in this edit; you'd want to ask him. I only formatted them better. Cheers, C628 (talk) 23:26, 22 June 2011 (UTC)

21 people killed and 113 reported injured in three blasts in Mumbai
Weren't you rather heavily involved in this article, to submit a review of it? Admittedly, some kinds of changes create a that makes the change look bigger than it is...

(Btw, I'd really like to believe I'd have thought to insist on a rename before publication, to not have specific numbers built into it that are sure to change; it's a recipe for a mess going forward.) --Pi zero (talk) 20:07, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I was involved, yeah, but I though the importance of publishing the thing outweighed the importance of following policy to the letter. It's the biggest news story of the day, it's a little pathetic for us not to have something on it published, and I was comfortable enough that I didn't make a huge error that I was willing to publish it. The title, yes, I can see there'd be a problem with that. C628 (talk) 20:26, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

 * If a story is especially important, failing to maintain our standards on it is especially damaging to our reputation — says we can't even maintain our standards when it really matters. One doesn't even get far enough for that to kick in, though, because the very fact a reviewer is involved disqualifies them from judging how important it is (COI).

 * Note that the detailed text of WN:IAR explicitly identifies independent review as the prime example of a policy not subject to being ignored. --Pi zero (talk) 22:49, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Further to the above conversation and our exchange on IRC, please be advised (with apologies for forgetting to notify you on here) that a thread at the admin alerts board has been opened concerning the above issue. You are welcome to comment there. BarkingFish (talk) 21:39, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Hello C628. After 18 days, I've closed your Reconfirmation request at the FR/RFP, and I'm sorry to say that your rights have not been reconfirmed at this time. The final tally in your RFP was 2 support, 2 oppose, 3 neutral. As a result of this, your right to use the reviewer bit has been withdrawn indefinitely, pending a full, new application for the bit at some point in the future. You may read a summary of my closing comments at this link. If you feel this is not an accurate assessment of the matter, you are welcome to refer this issue to the Admin Alerts Area or to another administrator for review.

Ban cooking shows. They show the mutilation of dead animals for enjoyment (taste and presentation)

If killing and eating a rat out of hunger is animal cruelty, then the killing and further mutilation of an animal for aesthetical reasons surely is.

American bandleader Kevin Eubanks to leave 'Tonight Show'

February 18, 2010

Kevin Eubanks, the veteran bandleader to American late-night television personality Jay Leno, confirmed reports on Wednesday that he will, at least temporarily, leave the The Tonight Show.

According to an NBC spokesperson, "Kevin [Eubanks] has expressed interest in pursuing personal touring and recording opportunities."

Eubanks has been the bandleader for the show since 1995. He furthermore followed Leno in his move to the primetime slot last year, when Leno hosted a short-lived talk show. This was until the new host Conan O'Brien left Tonight after only seven months following a contractual dispute.

The Tonight Show is slated to resume this March with Leno reinstated as host. For now, Eubanks is expected stay with Leno for the show's return and for an indefinite period of time following. It is yet to be made clear if Eubanks is willing to permanently abdicate his position and whether his entire The Tonight Show Band will go with him once he leaves.

User talk:Crombez~enwikinews

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

Wikinews interviews 0 A.D. game development team
I've done a little work on this to bring it up to a publishable standard. Two things that would really help (one is a must).

 * 1) Can you forward emails confirming the interview to scoop at wikinewsie.org please? (This is required).
 * 2) Could you, or someone else involved with 0A.D., please upload a resized version of the video; that is, resized to match the thumbnailed version (300px). This significantly reduces the bandwidth and processing load on anyone choosing to view the video.

Thanks for something unusual, I'd quite like to see this published. --Brian McNeil / talk 12:59, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Done for the email. For the video, there's no any other version.--Savant-fou (talk) 13:18, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
 * For the video, someone would need to download it, and use some of the FOSS tools to resize to 300px. This machine lacks such I'm afraid. --Brian McNeil / talk 13:37, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

New Internet site PleaseRobMe claims to reveal location of social networkers

February 18, 2010 A new website, PleaseRobMe.com, was created earlier this week, claiming to indicate the location of empty homes based on social networkers' posts online, especially Twitter.

The developers of the site told the BBC they had intended to display how dangerous it is to share one's precise location over the Internet. The site takes its information from posts by users on Twitter who have revealed their address and say when they are not at home.

The information is displayed by copies of posts by Twitter users on a live feed on the website's front page. Most the posts divulge an address, as well as a comment indicating the person is not at home. A reporter for Wikinews estimated about twenty to thirty new posts, called "opportunities" by the website, to be added to the list every minute.

Boy Van Amstel, one of the developers, commented to the BBC: "It started with me and a friend looking at our Twitter feeds and seeing more and more Foursquare posts. People were checking in at their house, or their girlfriend's or friend's house, and sharing the address - I don't think they were aware of how much they were sharing."

The website reportedly took only four hours to create and put up. "It's basically a Twitter search - nothing new. Anyone who can do HTML and Javascript can do this. You could almost laugh at how easy it is," Van Amstel commented.

The developer noted that he does not intend the site to become an aid to burglars. "The website is not a tool for burglary. The point we're getting at is that not long ago it was questionable to share your full name on the internet. We've gone past that point by 1000 miles," he remarked, adding it would be "very difficult" in practice to commit a burglary solely with the information provided.

A statement on the website in question reads: "The danger is publicly telling people where you are. This is because it leaves one place you're definitely not ... home. So here we are; on one end we're leaving lights on when we're going on a holiday, and on the other we're telling everybody on the internet we're not home."

It continued: "It gets even worse if you have 'friends' who want to colonize your house. That means they have to enter your address, to tell everyone where they are. The goal of this website is to raise some awareness on this issue and have people think about how they use services like Foursquare, Brightkite, Google Buzz etc. Because all this site is, is a dressed up Twitter search page. Everybody can get this information."

Talk:New Internet site PleaseRobMe claims to reveal location of social networkers

Broadcast report
I don't know whether this should be called a broadcast report or an original report? Anyways, I had the live feed of pleaserobme.com up for a few minutes, and calculated about thirty new posts per minute (rather rough estimate though, and it seems to fluctuate a bit). Tempodivalse [talk]  15:31, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't think thats really a "broadcast" report. Bawolff ☺☻ 18:25, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * That's only the template name; the actual text avoids this limitation. It only actually states "live webcast[s]" are included, but I think it's a far stretch to say that if just because it missed that definition on a technicality, a live feed somehow becomes OR. I wasn't at all against the old way, where such things were, in fact, considered original, but this is the way we've chosen to go.

Plane crashes into office block in Austin, Texas

February 18, 2010

A small plane crashed into a building, which was one of the Echelon office complex, in north Austin, Texas this morning at 09:56 local time (1456 UTC).

Federal officials say the plane owner was Joseph Andrew Stack III; presumed to be the pilot who set his house on fire on the 1800 block of Dapplegrey Lane in north Austin an hour earlier. He then drove to, approximately 20 miles away, took off and then crashed his private plane into the Echelon complex.

The Federal Aviation Authority indicated the light aircraft was a Piper Cherokee PA-28, as did news reports and eye witnesses. The FAA said the plane had no flight plan and was under.

Mr. Stack committed suicide, and a suicide note has been located. Mr. Stack's suicide note mentions anti-government and anti-corporate ideals, as well as problems with the Internal Revenue Service and that he lost money in the Enron scandal. Although the incident was intentional, a Department of Homeland Security official said that terrorism is not suspected. The online host of the note, T35 Hosting, later removed it in its entirety after the FBI requested its censorship. However, Wikinews has preserved the full text of the letter.

reported around 1100 local time (1600 UTC) that two people were transported to local hospitals and one was unaccounted for. One man was admitted at a local hospital under serious condition for smoke inhalation. The other man suffered from second-degree burns on 25% of his back and has been transported by helicopter to in  and is said to be in stable condition.

The seven-story Echelon Building One is located on 9430 Research Boulevard and contains offices. The Echelon building complex houses a number of federal offices, including Central Intelligence Agency and Federal Bureau of Investigation. Research Boulevard is the service road of. The incident has caused severe backups on both Research Boulevard and Route 183.

A witness told  that he saw the plane flying lower than usual, then it made a sharp turn and hit the building.

An Austin County EMS official, James Shamard, said that smoke is visible from at least a mile from the crash site. Another official for the Austin Fire Department said that two persons who were working in the building are still unaccounted for.

MSNBC reports that there was some form of domestic dispute between Mr. Stack and his wife before the incident. He then reportedly used gasoline to light his house on fire. When the fire department arrived, they rescued his wife and teenage daughter.

According to Jerry Cullen, a pilot and former flight instructor who witnessed the crash, the plane was traveling at high speed at time of impact.

Still around??
I like to keep up with newbies. You still around?? --Bddpaux (talk) 20:41, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, I've been on Wikibreak due to health reasons.- Stillwaterising (talk) 06:15, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Bddpaux I've changed my username to Technophant on enwiki and I'm writing a new article about Austin and water quality, Water-supply in Austin contaminated with toxic run-off. I'm going to switch back to this username because it seems more suited for an article about water quality.

Water-supply in Austin contaminated with toxic run-off
Afaics you never succeeded in getting anything published on en.wn. We've gotten far more reluctant than we once were to userspace failed synthesis articles, as it gradually emerged that some users would start to treat the project as a webhost, rather than a project focused on our published output.

I do recommend reading WN:PILLARS, which I think I was still calling a "draft" when you were last here. --Pi zero (talk) 18:51, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

 * Hi again. I'm concerned about this article.  I'll offer here a few thoughts, that might help guide things in a useful direction; I'm limited in how specific I can get, because I have to remain independent so that I can review whatever article you submit: reviewers are only allowed to review an article if they remain independent of its writing (basically, the reviewer mustn't be a coauthor).
 * I'm unsure whether you have in mind here synthesis or original reporting (OR). It's generally trouble to tackle OR on en.wn without first learning the ropes through synthesis.  I see you were involved in one article that's been published here, back in 2010, though not as solo author; that realistically wouldn't be enough even if it weren't nearly a decade ago.
 * Is there a news focus here? The focus should be something specific, relevant, and fresh, those three things being the basic elements of our newsworthiness criterion.  In this case, I'm not fundamentally worried about relevance (though it's not impossible some late draft might want rephrasing to bring out the relevance properly; that's not a concern yet, though).  However, I'm not seeing a specific event here, without which there is nothing to be more, or less, fresh.
 * If the article is synthesis, freshness requires the focal event to be very recent indeed. If the article involves OR, depending on the nature of the original element, freshness might be extended by a few days, or longer; although I suspect, as remarked above, you could get into trouble with OR because your experience on Wikinews is limited and quite a long time ago (goodness, how did 2010 get to be such a long time ago?).
 * (Attn: User:Gryllida.)

 * I don't see a fresh event here after October 2018, but last couple days there was a strong storm. Authorities said the lake from which drinking water is collected is safe.
 * I would love to find which days it stormed on, but this source has no precipitation data. I understand you live close by, and perhaps you know what is the best local source of weather history? Gryllida (talk) 00:03, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Here is one more recount of what is happening:

 * Pi zero, this will be original reporting. If you search paraquat and austin texas you will find nothing except the testing results.  I'm very busy working on this. I've been calling news outlets, trying to get funding for independent testing from multiple households, and trying to work with authorities. It may take a few weeks before this article is finished, or until a local news source does an article on it. If you look at the colab page I've reposted discussion from Nextdoor that are limited to the neighborhoods in central east Austin.  Certainly, there needs to be more awareness and input from other authors. BTW, the plane crash article was a team effort, however I was the primary contributor. How long ago it was shouldn't matter.  Stillwaterising (talk) 15:12, 10 May 2019 (UTC)

 * As I've already alluded to somewhat indirectly (but I'll now say more clearly), I anticipate difficulty and potential disaster from someone attempting OR without having first acquired a firm grasp of how en.wn works. OR is the most advanced, most difficult thing we do here.  By the time a user undertakes OR we suppose they will have written plenty of successfully published synthesis articles, by which the reporter learns the principles of our content, writing style, and review process, and we learn about the reporter, that is, the reporter earns a reputation with us which informs our dealings with them when later they may choose to move up to OR. I did see you were making a bunch of claims on the talk page.  You've got no prior reputation here, nor have you demonstrated understanding of the project through past works.  What documentary evidence do you mean to offer, beyond claims written on the article talk page, of your original work?  The material on the article talk page fails to explain the context, fails to explain the means of recording.  Are there emails?  Audio recordings?  Handwritten notes?  Or, what? --Pi zero (talk) 17:02, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Look Pi, you've gotten off to a really bad start with me and I don't take shit. You're a review, admin, bureaucrat - so what? You're immediately condescending and you double down with whatever nonsense you just wrote above this. This is a HUGE news story (interesting, national importance, and zero coverage from any sources, yet) and you're just trying to get in my way and intimidate me I won't allow it. You are not independent and I will not allow you to be my reviewer. You should encourage all new writers, not puff out your chest and declare your greatness while **biting** into their lack of experience. I have all the skill and talent needed to write a professional and comprehensive article. I started out tongue-in-cheek because I don't know all the details yet so I wanted to throw in some humor.

 * I don't know what kind of issues you have in RL that you feel like you need to bully people around for fun and tout your "reputation". I see nothing but fluff pieces in the latest articles, nothing ground-breaking or original. Either help me write this article or get out of my way. Stillwaterising (talk) 06:35, 11 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I am also interested in knowing documentary evidence for this story. If it contains confidential information, it may kindly please be delivered to scoop@undefinedwikinewsie.org, which all reviewers have access to. Gryllida (talk) 07:18, 11 May 2019 (UTC)

 * I've been trying to be as supportive as I could, given the circumstances. Reviewers can provide lots of help with finding your way around project standards.  I've offered guidance.  Wikinews can be a great tool for publishing high-quality articles, but only if you learn how to use the tool.  One thing is, the tool will not work well for you if, as a reporter, you choose to make your relationship with reviewers adversarial rather than collaborative.  As reviewers, we want to be helpful, we want a successful collaborative relationship, but we are also responsible for vetting articles, for not allowing articles to be published that don't measure up to project standards.  And, because vetting is important (it's at the heart of what journalism is), you don't get to choose who reviews an article you submit. --Pi zero (talk) 07:38, 11 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Pi zero, I'm sorry for snapping at you. I have severe chronic pain and it's been flaring lately. Of course, I should support everybody here. I rewrote the article and removed the unprofessional language, added a composite map I made using kml files that required hours of tedious editing, and waded through mud to find the manhole cover in Boggy Creek. Too bad the storms had washed the sewage away, so I'll put it in for now but it's not really an effective photo without the muck. Water testing data is very hard to come by. The river authority in the area of the oil drilling only puts out less than minimum basic chemistry and doesn't let you search for previous months. I'm not good at publicizing and admittedly challenged at collaborating, so any help for anybody is appreciated. Stillwaterising (talk) 00:19, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

Here's the best advice I can give you atm, based on my understanding of the situation. This is not just advice about submitting an article to Wikinews; it's also about your personal situation. That's because I care about three separate things, here: I care about Wikinews, I care about journalism (if there's an important story, I want to see it published), and I do care about individual people, which includes you.
 * There are two different obstacles to publishing this article on Wikinews. These imo probably cannot be resolved.
 * The lesser of the two problems is that you do not appear to be providing us with evidence we can use to authenticate/verify your claims. Step into our shoes for a moment.  We seek to do good in the world by publishing news.  The value of publishing that news depends on readers knowing that when we publish it, they can rely on it to be accurate and neutral.  So our ability to do good rises and falls with our reputation for consistently delivering accuracy and neutrality.  All this means that, before publishing your article, we would have to be sure of both you and your facts; we'd need to get from you sufficient evidence to authenticate and verify.
 * The greater obstacle is conflict of interest. You're not an independent reporter covering the story; from what I understand, you're part of the story.  You have an apparent conflict of interest in telling the story.  It's likely impossible for you to look at it objectively, exactly because you're involved.
 * As a minor afterthought, there are some stylistic things that would have to be fixed about the article, nothing that likely couldn't be done, if there weren't those two big obstacles in the way.

--Pi zero (talk) 03:56, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
 * What you apparently need, it seems to me, is a reporter. In all seriousness.  You need to have somebody —else— report about your situation.  It can't be you, because of your apparent conflict of interest in the matter.  And it has to be somebody who has the personal status to publish their report in some venue (TV station, Wikinews, whatever) that has, in its turn, a reputation that will cause people to take the report seriously; in other words, a reporter.  It could, in theory, be an accredited Wikinews reporter reporting on Wikinews; we're pretty thinly distributed, though — someday, hopefully, we'll grow, but right now Wikinewsies are few and far between.

help me

User:Pi zero, I was going to remove the person part and update it however it's deleted now. How did all my contributions get removed and how do I view the article again? Stillwaterising (talk) 06:05, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

 * I'm skeptical — looking at my final remark above, I did note at the time the difficulties likely could not be resolved. However, I'm giving you a shot at it; page undeleted, for now. --Pi zero (talk) 11:00, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

help me What are my options to save this work and graphics to start working on a draft of a new related article covering a larger region? Stillwaterising (talk) 19:59, 31 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Have you yet copied your draft into Google Docs, Microsoft Office, LibreOffice, or any other? That way, it won't get lost. Alternatively, how about ? --George Ho (talk) 19:12, 1 June 2019 (UTC)

I support the comments of Pi zero and Gryllida here, for what it's worth, and think they're really making an effort to help both you and the story. Blogging might indeed be an option "to get the story out" - and then avoid COI, as I try to when deciding to either be a participant *or* a reporter on an event. --Gwyndon (talk) 00:12, 20 June 2019 (UTC)

Images
Just letting you know that you also can upload images to Wikimedia Commons, c:Main Page, in the case their licencing allows commercial reuse. This is usually the preferred option, unless the information is unavailable from other sources. The images uploaded to Commons become available here at Wikinews, and there becomes no need to do a local upload. --Gryllida (talk) 00:00, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I did at first but I noticed they don't approve of Earth images because they aren't licensed for commerical reuse. They only way to apply the CC-BY-NC is to upload here. Thanks for the info though. Stillwaterising (talk) 00:10, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Hello. Can I ask where the cc-by-nc license is from? As far as I understand it, Google Earth does not issue such licenses. I have removed the license from File:Map of oil basins that intersect the Texas Colorado River watershed.png and added a non-free rationale (a fair use tag). Please could you complete the fields of the rationale? Green Giant (talk) 21:08, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
