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

Talk:American actor Patrick Swayze dies at age 57

I didn't see this in development anywhere
...when I first posted an article similar to this one, I think (but I am no longer sure since the original article was deleted) that I actually wrote an article about this first but mine was trumped by a LATER AND BETTER article. Can anyone please explain this to me? --  M  (speak/spoken) 01:09, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
 * It appears, from looking at some diffs, that this article was created first: it was published and went live on the front page at 02.30 UTC, while your article was created exactly ten minutes later, at 02.40 UTC. You likely didn't see the story in the newsroom because this was a prepared story, and went from there to review and subsequently publish within minutes. Tempodivalse [talk]  01:15, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh, okay. By the way, it also wasn't even on the main page either, but oh well. Thanks for clearing that up. --  M  (speak/spoken) 02:03, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry. I had to run out and forgot to put a message on your talk page. Actually it was listed on the main page under 'Latest news'. When I deleted the article you created (no offense at all because your article was about as long as mine until saw one in prepared stories). So it wasn't yet on one of the 4 lead stories. Again though I am sorry for not getting back to you quicker. DragonFire1024 (Talk to the Dragon) 04:13, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
 * It's perfectly fine, I guess I understand now. Someone beat me to it and I had no realization of it at all, but oh well. Maybe next time will yield better luck for me. You probably saw it on the main page and I didn't, even though I refreshed the page a few times. But stuff takes time to get up, I suppose. Thank you again! :) --  M  (speak/spoken) 19:59, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

British chef Keith Floyd dies at age 65

September 16, 2009

British chef Keith Floyd has died at the age of 65 after a heart attack in Dorset, England.

Keith Floyd was best known for his cookery programmes, particularly on British television channel BBC, although he has also featured on shows on ITV. He was arguably most popular for his Floyd on series, with shows like Floyd on Food, Floyd on Spain, Floyd on Italy etc. He also presented Floyd on GMTV in 1998. Keith had been presenting programmes from 1984 to 2001.

On July 29, it was reported that Floyd had been diagnosed with bowel cancer in June. After undergoing five serious operations, 90% of the cancer was removed. He later had chemotherapy. He died on Monday of a heart attack in his partner's house in Dorset, England.

Famous chefs around the world have been expressing their sadness for his death and made comments about him to British newspaper, The Guardian. Among them was Rick Stein, who said, "I first met Keith in the early 80s. He used to come to the restaurant regularly and knew Padstow well because his first wife came from Port Isaac.  At a time when I was experimenting with Provençal dishes like Bouillabaisse and Bourride he was a Gauloise-smoking, red wine drinking hero who had actually owned a restaurant next to the Mediterranean.  One thing was certain — he cooked like a dream and loved food and wine with a passion."

Other cooks such as Michel Roux, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall and Heston Blumenthal expressed condolences. Gordon Ramsay stated, "Keith Floyd was a true original. A natural performer and a superb cook, he broke new ground with his programmes and his contribution to television cookery was immense."

Marco Pierre White stated that, "A little piece of Britain died yesterday which will never be replaced. He was an individual, he was a maverick, he was mercurial, he was magical, he was special, he was rare."

Keith Floyd died on September 14, the same day a documentary was broadcast on Channel 4 called Keith Meets Keith, which featured comedian Keith Allen interviewing Keith Floyd. It emerged that his death was just a few hours beforehand, however the information was unknown at the time of broadcast.

Celia Martin, who was staying with Floyd at the time of his death, gave an interview with London local newspaper Evening Standard.

"When we got home he had a siesta and got up feeling a bit headachy. We had both eaten a lot so I put it down to that. He laid down on the sofa and I thought he went to sleep. Then suddenly his breathing became erratic," Martin said. "I phoned for an ambulance and the operator gave me instructions on how to help him. He didn't say anything at all. The ambulance people were here for about an hour. They thought there was a chance they could save him. It was so bizarre, we were sitting down to watch the documentary at 10pm but by that time he had died."

British comedian Eddie Izzard completes 43 marathons in 51 days

September 16, 2009

British comedian Eddie Izzard has completed a series of 43 marathons in just 51 days to raise money for Sport Relief, a charity based in the United Kingdom.

The marathons covered a total running distance of 1,100 miles (1,700 kilometers) across the United Kingdom. He ran from London, England, to Cardiff, Wales, to Belfast, Northern Ireland, to Edinburgh, Scotland and back to London again. Izzard carried a flag of each of the four countries depending on which one he was running in.

Eddie is 47 years old and had spent just five weeks training for the event. He crossed the finish line on Tuesday in Trafalgar Square in London during a rainfall. He said to waiting journalists: "I feel dead."

In an interview with BBC News, he commented: "I don't know what the hell I was doing at the end but it must have been way faster than I was doing the rest of the time. So I feel exhausted now, but you know, it's over. Being here is very nice because, when I left here seven-and-a-half weeks ago, there was nothing here, it was just a cold morning and now there's a lot of people here, even in the rain."

At least 38 killed after flash flooding in Indonesia

September 15, 2009 A spokesman for the Indonesian government has said that at least 38 people were killed following flash flooding in the North Sumatra province on Tuesday.

The flood, which began in the early morning, struck the Mandailing Natal Regency, 275 kilometres from the provincial capital, Medan.

The country's health ministry crisis centre leader, Rustam Pakaya, said the floods began at 2:00 local time (UTC+7) and soon reached a depth of two metres. Pakaya said that rescue efforts were hampered by muddy roads. "Our latest information from the local district head is that 38 bodies have been found so far. Our main priority is to rescue the survivors. The flash floods hit six villages with about 2,200 residents," said spokesman Edy Sysopian to the Agence France-Presse news agency.

"The rescue process is difficult because the two bridges [...] to the villages collapsed. The other way to reach the affected area is by sea using speed boats, but strong weather [...] is making that difficult."

Syamsul Arifin, the North Sumatra governor, said that fifty tonnes of rice were sent to the victims of the flooding out of government reserves.

The governor said that "we have instructed the local social services office to provide food and assistance, including blankets and tents, while for the time being the health office is providing medicine."

U.S. and China in trade dispute

September 19, 2009

The United States (U.S.) and China this week initiated a trade dispute over tires, auto-parts, and poultry products just a week ahead of the 2009 G-20 trade summit in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

The most recent trade policies enacted by the U.S. government includes a September 12 decision to impose a 35% trade tariff on Chinese tire imports as an anti-dumping measure. The trade policy came about as a result of a trade-complaint initiated by the United Steelworkers Union (USW) filed before the U.S. International Trade Commission. As reported by Steve Levine of BusinessWeek, "In [the USW's] trade complaint to the U.S. International Trade Commission, the USW invoked a provision in China's 2001 accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO) that allows protection from surging imports from the country [China]. The union documented a tripling of Chinese tire imports from 2004 to 2008 [...]" The Trade Commission initially recommended a 55% tariff however, President Obama agreed to only 35%. The trade tariff will be diminished by 5% per year for the next three years to 25%. The deadline for President Obama's decision was September 17. The trade tariff will take effect on September 26, pegging rates at the new level from the current 4%. The dispute will now move to the WTO where it can take up to 18 months for adjudication.

To quantify the impact of the tariff, in 2008 China supplied US$1.8 billion in tires to the U.S. or about one-third of the U.S. market, with two-thirds of U.S. companies producing their tires in China. It's likely that the effects of the suit will exceed $1 billion in trade costs, as reported by several other news agencies.

On the 14th of September, the Chinese government via its Ministry of Commerce website, announced that they would institute an investigation into the dumping of U.S. auto parts and chicken products; they are also filing a complaint at the WTO regarding this matter. A formal announcement of trade tariffs against U.S. goods has not occurred.

The two countries' executive and economic teams will meet in Pittsburgh for the G-20 meeting on September 24 and 25 to discuss these and other economic issues.

UK unemployment rate reaches thirteen-year high

September 16, 2009 Data released on Wednesday from the British government says that the unemployment rate in the United Kingdom has reached its highest level in thirteen years, with the jobless rate at 7.9%.

2.47 million people are now out of work in the UK, up 210,000 or 0.7% in the quarter leading to July. The unemployment level has not been this high since November 1996.

Young people, aged 16 to 24 years old, have been affected the most by the recession, with 947,000 having been out of jobs, the highest level recorded.

Some economic analysts have suggested that the jobless rate may eventually reach three million, even if layoffs slow.

"While the deepest job losses are now probably over, the outlook for the labour market remains far from encouraging. Doubts and concerns over the strength and sustainability of any recovery are likely to encourage businesses to keep their labour forces as tight as possible," economic forecaster Howard Archer for Global Insight said.

UK teens cleared of school massacre plot

September 17, 2009

Two teenagers in the United Kingdom have been acquitted of planning a high school massacre similar to the 1999 Columbine High School massacre in the United States. Police and the Crown Prosecution Service have been criticised for bringing the case to trial.

Matthew Swift, 18, and Ross McKnight, 16, were cleared of accusations they planned a copycat attack at their school in Manchester to coincide with the April 20 anniversary of the original mass shooting. They had been charged with conspiracy to murder and conspiracy to cause explosions likely to endanger life or cause serious injury to property. Swift and McKnight have spent the last six months behind bars on remand, Swift in prison and McKnight a young offenders institute.

Police had thought they had found a criminal plot when they were alerted after a girl received a drunken phone call from one boy talking about a school shooting. They discovered a second girl had received a text saying "If I ever text you not to come into school don't question it, just don't go in." The pair were found to be in possession of The Anarchist Cookbook and a BB gun. No guns or explosives were found even though the prosecution alleged to have video footage of the pair manufacturing explosives.

The prosecution case further focused on diary entries and plans talking of how they would perpetrate the "greatest massacre ever." "Audenshaw high," wrote Swift "will be no more. Unlike Columbine, my propane bomb will actually fucking explode and I will walk from classroom to classroom killing the fuck out of everybody, then maybe people will learn."

The 2007 plans were alleged by prosecutors to have included a diversion bomb away from the school, which was the main target, even though they also suggested attacks on several other buildings. Swift explained that his writings were "naive and pathetic ways to channel my teenage angst. I was 16 with a vivid imagination." The defense had focused on the notion that the plot was pure fantasy.

Supporting this was testimony, including that of McKnight's police officer father Ray, that the duo had plenty of other weird and wonderful schemes. Much as the shooting idea had come from Michael Moore's documentary Bowling for Columbine, so too had they discussed living off the land in Alaska after watching Into the Wild. Other ideas included a winter mission to climb Ben Nevis and launching a dinghy service on local canal routes.

The five men and seven women that comprised the jury agreed, and took just 45 minutes to reject the charges. They even waited for defence counsel so they could wave and smile at them. It was, according to McKnight's lawyer Roderick Carus QC, perhaps the "quickest acquittal of this apparent gravity" he had ever witnessed. He said the case was a weak one that should never have gone to court. One of the lawyers on the case described the teens as victims of an "unnecessary, heavy-handed prosecution" that was a waste of several hundred thousand pounds.

British officers working the case flew to the United States to speak with those that worked upon the Columbine massacre. Later, the former head of the Columbine investigation traveled to the UK.

Ray McKnight did not comment on the decision to try the case, but he did say both defendants had experienced "purgatory" and "absolute agony" while imprisoned. "We are all just incredibly relieved," he said, stating that he never doubted his son's innocence for a moment. His son read the following statement outside Manchester Crown Court: "I would like to make it clear that at no time was any person put at risk. This was just a fantasy. This was never a reality. I would just like to say that during my time in custody, I have taken my GCSEs. I hope that my wish to join the army has not been harmed."

Renault F1's team boss, top engineer quit as team accepts cheating claim

September 16, 2009

Renault F1 team boss Flavio Briatore and engineering director Pat Symonds have both split ways with the team. The move comes as Renault announce they will not fight a charge of race-fixing. Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) accused Renault of ordering Nelson Piquet, Jr. to crash during the 2008 Singapore Grand Prix. The wreck brought out the safety car and most other competitors made refueling stops while it was out. However, Renault's Fernando Alonso had pitted unusually early and was able to move up to take one of just two victories that year. The FIA interviewed Piquet after an investigation was triggered by claims published by Globo TV. Piquet's interview was leaked, and he placed the blame squarely on Briatore and Symonds.

"The proposal to deliberately cause an accident was made to me shortly before the race took place, when I was summoned by Mr. Briatore and Mr. Symonds in Mr. Briatore’s office... When I was asked to crash my car I accepted because I hoped it could improve my position within the team at this critical time in the race season," Piquet said in the interview.

Piquet further stated that he received no assurances he would still be racing for Renault in 2009. Although he continued to race for Renault in 2009, he was sacked midway through the current season.

Renault will discover their punishment at a hearing before the World Motor Sport Council in Paris, France. They face the possibility of being banned from Formula One. Piquet has received immunity from the FIA for his testimony. Data showed Piquet accelerating into the wall instead of braking as he approached it.

Briatore has a long history with Renault. He started off with Benetton Formula in 1988 and was team principal for Michael Schumacher's 1994 and 1995 world title wins. He left in 1997 but Renault made him head again after he helped the French firm buy the team in 2000. He was there for Alonso's world championship wins in 2005 and 2006.

U.S. Senate releases version of Healthcare Bill

September 19, 2009

On Wednesday the U.S. Senate released its version of the U.S. healthcare overhaul that has recently been advocated by Barack Obama.

The released an 18-page summary of the 223-page bill that will, according to Senate Finance Committee Chairman, cost 856 billion over 10 years. The estimates that the bill will cost US$774 billion over 10 years and will cover 94% of Americans. The Senate version was orchestrated by Senator Baucus, a from. The bill was released without any support from the committee. However, today, the bill received support from a bi-partisan group of Senators including the Republican Senator from, and. If the bill's passage is determined along party lines, Democrats will need at least one Republican Senator to avoid a possible in the Senate.

The proposal mandates nation-wide individual insurance by 2013 and omits a government-run insurance clause as is included in the U.S. House version; instead, the plan calls for non-profit healthcare cooperatives. The healthcare cooperatives would be provided with US$6 billion in initial funding to cover start-up fees and costs. Individuals refusing to obtain coverage can be charged up to US$950 annually with families fined up to US$3,800 per year. Small businesses will not be mandated to provide healthcare to their employees but those who do will receive tax credits. Also, insurances companies that have more expensive individual plans will be taxed for 35% of the amount that that the plan exceeds the federal individual threshold of US$8,000 or the family threshold of US$21,000. The bill includes clauses for protection against coverage suspensions due to illnesses and protections for individuals with pre-existing conditions. It will not pre-empt state laws on abortion and does not provide for abortion payments except in cases of rape or incest. The plan also mandates registration with the as a means to avoid illegal alien use of the program.

The bill will reportedly be paid for by US$850 billion in spending reduction, taxes and fees to include reduction in benefits. The Senate Finance Committee is the last approval authority before the Senate or House bills can be considered for floor debate.

Driver fined after following sat-nav to edge of cliff in West Yorkshire, England

September 17, 2009

A driver has been fined after following the directions of his satellite navigation system, leading him to the edge of a massive cliff drop in West Yorkshire, England.

Robert Jones, who is 43 years old, appeared in Calderdale Magistrates Court on Tuesday, representing himself. He was prosecuted by Waseem Raja. Waseem told the court: "The defendant was using a TomTom satellite navigation system. The defendant followed that system to the letter, so much so it led him up a lane clearly unsuitable for motor vehicles."

"The path was such it was not designed for use of motor vehicles yet Mr Jones slavishly continued to follow the satnav system to the point where his eyes and his brain must have been telling him otherwise to such a degree he was not exercising proper control of the vehicle."

On March 22, 2009, Robert Jones was driving a BMW 5 Series and was trying to get to his home in Doncaster, South Yorkshire after staying with friends in Todmorden, West Yorkshire. He was unsure of the route home and so followed his satellite navigation system, which was in the car. He continued to follow instructions despite being told that the narrowing dirt track he was driving on was actually a road. At the time the petrol gauge in the car indicated that he had just seven miles of fuel left. Because of this, Jones was desperate to find a filling station. He became so distracted by the sat-nav that he didn't realise his mistakes until he struck a fence on the edge of a 100 foot (30.5 metre) drop. The battery on his mobile phone had run out so he had to walk to a nearby village to get help.

In his defence, Robert told the court: "I might have been an idiot for taking the wrong road or carrying on but I have not driven without due care or attention. I'm sorry it happened. I certainly would not do it again. I drive 5,000 miles a week and I never have had a problem with it. I had no reason not to trust it."

Jones was found guilty of driving without due care and attention. He was fined £370 (US$610) with £500 ($824) costs and ordered to pay a £15 ($24) victim surcharge. He also got six points on his licence and had to pay £1,000 ($1,624) in recovery charges.

Talk:U.S. and China in trade dispute

Stylistic comment
I am not keen on quoting the reporting of another news source as is done with the Newsweek material. --SVTCobra 23:15, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I would certainly say that is generally inappropriate. You start having to get into what editorial bias the source publication may have and you could well be quoting a journalist who has no qualifications in the field he is commenting on. --Brian McNeil / talk 09:27, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I would have to disagree. The quote is not a biased quote when we are trying to tell "why" the complaint was filed.  I could understand if they gave an interpretation of what the complaint involved but in all legal complaints you have to explain why you are filing the complaint.  "Why" they filed the complaint is because of an increase in Chinese imports.  Whether or not that is true was up to the commission to decide ... in this case, the commission sided with the USW.  But that doesn't change the fact that this was the complaint filed by the USW.--JaylanHaley (talk) 22:36, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Would it be better if it said "As detailed in the trade-dispute brief ..."?
 * It's not even a matter of whether Newsweek has a bias ... I feel it is poor form to quote the journalism of another. Learn the facts and write them in your own words. --SVTCobra 23:33, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree with the Cobra and Brian, even if there were no bias, it just doesn't seem professional to quote other news agencies' text. Also, wouldn't this qualify as a copyvio, if one copies prose (not quotes) from another source? Tempodivalse [talk]  23:37, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, it is clearly attributed to the author and publication, and it is relatively short, so I don't think it falls under copyvio. --SVTCobra 23:51, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

Yukio Hatoyama formally elected Japanese prime minister

September 17, 2009

Yukio Hatoyama was formally elected the prime minister of Japan on Wednesday, following general elections in August.

The Japanese Parliament convened on Wednesday for a special session to formally elect Hatoyama.

The former Prime Minister, Taro Aso, and his cabinet had earlier resigned.

At his first press conference as PM, Hatoyama said: "The moment I was elected prime minister, I trembled deeply when I realised that Japanese history was changing. I also felt a strong sense of responsibility knowing that I must lead the change of this country to one where the people are sovereign."

The change of power brought an end to over five decades of rule by Japan's Liberal Democratic Party.

In last month's polls, the (DPJ) obtained 308 of 480 seats, giving the party a majority in the lower chamber.

US fall foliage report: September 17

September 17, 2009

This week, a taste of autumn is in the air throughout northern portions of the United States. Cold air is slowly seeping in from the arctic, and the leaves are just beginning to change in certain areas as summer fades away.

In the Northeastern U.S., fall colors have begun to arrive atop mountains in parts of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and New York. The highest elevations of the Adirondack Mountains are already at their mid-point in terms of fall foliage. However, most trees remain green in the Midwest and the Southeast, with some color on a few diseased trees.

Parts of the Western United States, especially higher elevations of Utah, have reported slight to moderate color.

Comments:Driver fined after following sat-nav to edge of cliff in West Yorkshire, England

This is insane. Charging him for following the orders of a defective sat/nav (GPS) device. I'd think he has good reason for a law suit against the manufacturer!

 * It wouldn't have been a hard conviction to get. Not only did he drive into a fence at the end, but he admitted that following the device made him an 'idiot'. If you are ignoring the road, then you shouldn't be on it. I'd have also charged him with criminal damage which he recklessly caused to the fence; or, were it undamaged, of recklessly putting the fence at high risk of damage. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 19:42, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Too bad its not America, otherwise the guy can turn around and sue the sat/nave device manufacturer for massive amounts of cash.

 * Why satnavs usually tell you that you need to engage common sense as well, in the UK (I hope) they would be laughed out of court for being idiots and rightfully so!--86.15.153.179 (talk) 13:25, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Comments:UK unemployment rate reaches thirteen-year high

Unemployment, particularly amongst 16 to 24 year olds, will be the defining political issue in the UK for the next decade and maybe longer still.

The creation of a ‘lost generation’ of people for whom working is an unknown experience is an outcome the country cannot afford in either economic or social terms, all three main parties are agreed on this point, there is though one major problem, solving youth unemployment costs serious money.

This week treasury documents leaked to the press revealed that public spending may have to be cut by up to 9.3% just to bring the deficit down to manageable proportions, making an already serious situation into a potential disaster. What do we choose, balancing the books or fixing a broken society?

Cuts are inevitable, if only because without reining in public spending meeting the current welfare obligations will become ever more difficult for whichever party wins the next election, what needs to take place is a reasoned debate on where the ‘pain’ must be felt first and the cuts deepest.

Swine flu, in-depth: worldwide report

September 17, 2009

The H1N1 outbreak of swine flu, which began in Mexico this April, has now spread across the globe. There have been at least 3,330 deaths from the swine flu since the virus started spreading, out of almost 316,000 total reported cases.

Nine countries — Australia, Brazil, France, Italy, New Zealand, Norway, Switzerland, the UK, and the US — have promised to send ten percent of their antiviral vaccine supply to other countries, should the latter be in need of it. The plan was agreed to "in recognition that diseases know no borders and that the health of the American people is inseparable from the health of people around the world," a statement by the US government read.

In an in-depth report, Wikinews takes a look at how the disease has affected countries around the world.

Brazil
As of Wednesday, Brazil has registered 899 deaths from the swine flu, making it the hardest-hit country in terms of fatalities. The city of Sao Paulo reported 327 deaths, and Rio de Janerio 84.

However, the country's health ministry also said that the rate of serious cases "fell for the fifth straight week."

Brazil had surpassed the United States, which has 593 deaths, in number of total fatalities from the outbreak late in August.

Argentina, Brazil's neighbour to the south, has 512 deaths from the H1N1 virus.

China
10,000 cases of swine flu were confirmed across China since the outbreak began. The number of infections seems to be increasing quickly.

Communications director for the World Health Organisation Vivian Tan said that "in the last week or so, the increase has been quite quick," attributing the rise to a small decrease in temperatures as fall sets in, as well as students returning to school after summer breaks.

China's official news agency Xinhua reported that 1,118 new cases of the influenza were reported in a two-day period earlier in the week, adding that a vast majority of the cases had been transmitted in China, not by persons entering the country from abroad.

All 31 of China's provinces have reported instances of the flu. The disease initially seemed to be limited to large cities, but recently has started moving into more rural areas.

No casualties from the swine flu have yet been confirmed in China.

France
The office of France's president Nicolas Sarkozy said that the country would pledge up to one tenth or nine million of its 94 million antiviral vaccine doses to the World Health Organisation, to be distributed to countries with fewer vaccine supplies if needed.

International solidarity "will be a determining factor in reducing the health, economic and social impact of the pandemic," according to a statement released by the government.

India
On Wednesday, eleven people had been reported dead from the virus in India, taking the country's death toll up to 212 people. The number of people infected with the influenza is now estimated at 6,800.

India's health ministry on Tuesday said that the Tamiflu drug would be on sale in the open market within seven days, allowing for a "restricted sale" of the drug.

An unnamed official said that "it is expected that within the next five to seven days, both the drugs would be available in the retail market through identified chemists against proper medical prescriptions.

"Taking into account the current spread of the influenza A(H1N1) in the country, the health ministry has decided that retail sale of Tamiflu and Zanamivir should be allowed in the country but in a regulated manner," he said.

Previously, distribution of Tamiflu was prohibited by the government, and access to it was only available through public health institutions.

Kenya
At least 70 people in Kenya have the swine flu, according to local health official. In the latest outbreak, twenty high school students came down with the virus and had to be quarantined on Thursday.

"A majority of the affected students who are in Forms One and Two were treated and advised to remain under bed rest to minimise further spread of the disease among the student community," said the director of Public Health, Dr. Shanaaz Shariff. However, he said that the students' illness was "not too serious to warrant hospitalisation."

Security guards were placed around the school the students were isolated in, with orders only to allow medical personnel to enter the premises.

Kenya's capital Nairobi has been the worst hit by the flu, having reported forty cases. Other cities affected by the flu are Kisumu and Rift Valley, who have reported eighteen and ten cases of the H1N1 virus, respectively.

Mexico
Mexico, the country in which the outbreak initially started, has 25,214 reported cases and 217 fatalities from the virus. Some recent cases have forced schools to close down.

Jose Angel Cordova, the Mexican health secretary, said that the virus could infect as many as five million of Mexico's 107 million people, and, in a worst-case scenario, cause up to 2,000 deaths. His estimate is higher than his previous prediction of 1 million cases and 1,000 deaths, made last month.

United Kingdom
About five thousand new cases of swine flu were reported in the United Kingdom in recent weeks, reversing a declining trend in the number of new infections. Health officials have suggested this could lead up to a second outbreak of the virus.

"We don't know whether this is the start of the next big wave that we were expecting this autumn but it is certainly something that's giving us concern. It will probably be a week or two before we see whether this increase is sustained." said Liam Donaldson, the Chief Medical Officer.

Health authorities have said that at least 25 cases appear to have been resistant to the Tamiflu drug prescribed to treat the illness.

Donaldson said that "the positive side of it is that so far these have not been strains that have then gone on and affected other patients, they have stayed with the patient in which they were isolated. What would worry us is if we got a resistant strain that then started infecting people like the rest of the cases of flu that have occurred."

The UK is one of several countries that have pledged up to one tenth of their vaccine stock to to other countries if they are in need of more supplies. "[Britain] recognizes that H1N1 is a global pandemic which requires a global response," the International Development Secretary, Douglas Alexander, said. "Solidarity with other nations is vital, particularly the poorest who may be most vulnerable and have least capacity to respond."

United States
The US government recently bought 195 million doses of swine flu vaccine. Health Care Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said that free shots will be given out early in October. The vaccination is to be voluntary, but priority will be given to certain groups, such as toddlers and children, adults over the age of 65, and pregnant women, who are considered especially vulnerable to the virus.

"We remain confident that the United States will have sufficient doses of the vaccine to ensure that every American who wants a vaccine is able to receive one," a White House statement said.

As of September 16, the US had 593 deaths from the flu.

Vietnam
144 people in Vietnam were diagnosed with the swine flu on Wednesday, bringing the total number of infected people in the country to 5,648. This week, the number of affected people has increased by 1104 infections or 6.3%.

Nguyen Tran Hien, the director of the Central Institute of Hygiene Epidemiology, predicted that the swine flu would peak at the end of 2009 and the beginning 2010.

The Vietnamese Ministry of Health called for more research into a swine flu vaccine, and urged the the National Steering Board on Flu Prevention in Humans to give out more doses of the drug Tamiflu to areas hardest hit by the flu.

Cypriot court begins Greek air disaster trial

September 17, 2009 A court in Cyprus has begun the trial of defunct airline Helios and four managers over an air disaster in Greece. The five are facing a total of 1,190 charges after Flight 522 went down near Athens in 2005, killing 121 people.

All defendants entered not guilty pleas, and are alleged by prosecutors to have operated their business in an unsafe manner. It is alleged that the flight should never have been allowed to take off. As well as the company, executive chairman Andreas Drakos, managing director Demetris Pantazis, operations manager George Kikkides and head pilot Ianko Stoimenov will face a full trial when proceedings are resumed on November 27. They will return to the Nicosia court then. The charges include manslaughter and causing death via a careless act.

The unresponsive Boeing 737, supposed to be flying between Lanarca to Prague, had entered Greek airspace, where it was intercepted by two F-16 fighter jets on August 14, 2005.

The F-16 pilots reported the airliner's pilots were slumped over the controls. After flying on autopilot for two hours the aircraft crashed near Athens despite the efforts of a flight attendant, who was training to become a pilot, to take control and save the jet.

The subsequent investigation discovered that the pilots failed to adequately monitor the pressurisation system. The plane lost cabin pressure and hypoxia caused the incapacitation of the passengers and flight crew. It is thought that the conscious flight attendant had used multiple crew oxygen cylinders to outlast the others on board. Investigators also believe that the equipment had been left in the wrong setting after testing by maintenance engineers and never checked before flight.

After failing to resuscitate the pilot-in-command, the trainee pilot turned off the autopilot and attempted an emergency landing at Athens International Airport, which the aircraft had been circling in a holding pattern awaiting human input. However, the aircraft ran out of fuel before reaching the runway.

Note to reviewer
You see that whopping great final accident report in the sources? You don't need to look at it. It deals with everything from "The unresponsive aircraft..." onwards and that information has already been checked against the report at an earlier review, see Talk:Cyprus charges five over 2005 air crash that killed 121.

Review of revision 883489 [Passed]
The image of the "fighter jets shadowing the unresponsive plane" is computer-generated image. It's not an actual photograph, it was drawn on a computer. Just in case that wasn't clear.

Italian mafia implicated in radioactive waste dumping

September 17, 2009

The 'Ndrangheta, an Italian mafia syndicate, has been accused by a former member of the gang of sinking dozens of ships loaded with toxic waste, much of it radioactive. He says a journalist and cameraman were killed to keep them from revealing the activity.

Turncoat Francesco Fonti has identified a wreck located a few months ago by environmental workers as MV Kunsky or Cunsky and says he sunk it himself in 1992, complete with 100 barrels of radioactive waste. The gang received £100,000 ($162,720) for the job.

The wreck was scoured last week by a robot, but could not be identified. It lies 480 feet below sea level, and is about 330 to 360 feet long. Its description and location have been found to match an old account Fonti gave authorities three years ago, and environmental detection equipment has been dispatched to the ship, images of which do show barrels in the area.

Fonti claims he blew it up with explosives from Holland and it was used to dispose of Norwegian nuclear waste. The damage seen by the team working at the site does appear consistent with this version of events. Prosecutors say it appears the issue is displaying "all the appearances of being a confirmation". Fonti says waste was disposed of for businesses across Europe.

Nicola Pace, an Italian prosecutor, said there was evidence of "deliberate sinking of 42 ships with cargoes of waste, including radioactive waste" but there has never been concrete proof. Investigators will seek more shipwrecks if the mystery vessel does indeed have a toxic cargo. Over thirty vessels are believed to be in Italian waters.

Both Fonti and environmental group Legambiente have also claimed vessels were sent to Somalia and other developing countries with toxic cargoes, which were either sunk with the ship or buried on land. Legambiente alleges that local rebel groups were given weapons in exchange for receiving the waste ships. Fonti claims that Italian TV journalist Ilaria Alpi's 1994 murder alongside her cameraman was because she had seen toxic waste arrive in Bosaso, Somalia.

Story preparation/Former U.S. President George H. W. Bush dies
That isn't a "hoax" it is a prepared news story. In this case it is an obituary for George Bush. Should he die, we already have a story ready to go, we've got several other obituaries ready for the same reason. This is common for most news organizations. -- Shakata Ga Nai ^_^ 01:04, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

So I think I should find old famous people in India and prepare the story like you did.

Sorry, for misunderstanding.

User:ShakataGaNai/OneBotToRuleThemAll

Idea tossed around in IRC on 2009-09-17 after shit going badly wrong. Enwn.net had a shit fit because of the RSS feed getting hosed. The RSS feed was pushing out articles that weren't sighed & one that was published 18+ months ago. So on and so forth, it was a bad day.

Features of The Bot

 * Run on a regular schedule (IE once a minute)
 * Scan for newly published articles
 * When new stories are found:
 * Update a "Latest News" template of the last 20+ stories for the main page (instead of DPL)
 * Update it's RSS feed
 * Update Twitter/Identica/Facebook/Other social networking
 * Optionally rotate leads (if that isn't incorporated into EPR)
 * Would have the ability to "plug-in" further functionality down the line
 * Example: If we have an iPhone application, it could "push" notifications

Why would we want to do this?

 * One totally unified update system
 * No more "hacks" like our current RSS system
 * No more reliance on DPL
 * We can control the behavior of what dictates when a story gets "published"
 * We can dictate what it takes to "unplublish" a story
 * No more mysterious stories floating into being "published" a year+ after the fact (or even a week+ late)
 * Breaking updates to social networking would be much faster
 * Overall a less hacked together system, with less load on the server (DPL is a strain)

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

Talk:U.S. Senate releases version of Healthcare Bill

Writer
I'm really trying to understand how everything changed so dramatically in less than 24 hrs? First, how does an article have no copyrighted material then, when I place the sources into the proper format turn into a fail on the copyright? Next, my articles would be newsworthy if it didn't take three days to review them. Third, every other area had been positively reviewed with the exception of sourcing, by the first reviewer so how is it that everything now has failed? And no explanation on top of that. Two items without authors, publishing date, etc. are primary sources. They are U.S. legal documents which have been linked within the article. --JaylanHaley (talk) 08:09, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I interpret the last of the two above reviews as "n/r" meaning not reviewed against the copyright issue. This might be grounds to discuss on the water cooler - if an initial review passes on a variety of points, it should not fail on those points for a second review unless there are substantial changes that make this likely/possible. --Brian McNeil / talk 09:30, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

 * I didn't check the one's that were previously passed - consider them passed. Just with the sources you list under References, use the sources template - change these and the article will be published by me --RockerballAustralia (talk) 09:33, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Will do for the future, again, feedback is much appreciated. --153.26.241.6 (talk) 21:06, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Wikinews:Title selection advice

The title of a news article is extremely important, and one of the key pieces of information that allows a reader to decide to read an article — two key reasons for this would be that the title indicates it is relevant to an issue they are interested in, or gives a less-clear indication of the content while piquing curiosity as to content.

The key rules for an article title are detailed in the style guide; below are the most common mistakes.
 * Failure to use downstyle: "The Quick Brown Dog" is wrong; "The quick brown dog" is per WN:SG.
 * Disregard for international audience; eg, story from obscure town/city without the country mentioned.

An article's title is not just a dull, dry set of relevant facts. Depending on the seriousness of the content, some creativity should be applied. References to details that might not be within the actual article can be one approach; a story may parallel details of a culturally significant item such as a book or film. Alliteration can be a good approach for creating a memorable title.

Our submission guidelines
I'd like to let you know that here at the English Wikinews, we only accept English language news. You've recently made contributions that don't qualify as news. We appreciate your contributions, but we cannot accept the edits you've made, so they have been reverted or deleted.

In the future, if you'd like to submit news, we are more than happy to have your help! Just make sure to check out this article, which talks about what Wikinews is not.

Thank you for your contributions! Brian McNeil / talk 13:16, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

wasn't that english language news. i have not used word of any other language. Zdwaqas (talk) 13:29, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Your article is not news because it is simply a statement of fact in the form "this day is the anniversary of ". That's not news. Some celebration of the anniversary might be news, but not just a fact that's the same every year. --Brian McNeil / talk 13:31, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

right, i got that. it was more a wikipedia article rather than news. i'll make a news anyway. i have pictures also for that procession carried out in Karachi. will upload the same. Zdwaqas (talk) 13:33, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
