Wikinews talk:Breaking news

/Archive 1

Outdated idea
This idea that seems a bit outdated, so I made some changes to emphasize that all articles should go through review, even if one editor feels something is "breaking". People abuse the "breaking" tag way too much as it is anyways. See prior discussion here: Wikinews_talk:Reviewing_articles, and common practice of usage of Review with Peer reviewed, etc. All articles should go through an independent review prior to publish, "breaking" or not. Cirt (talk) 13:29, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

Mail form
Instead of (or in tandem with) a mailto tag for submitting stories, how about a webform to submit stories (which can then email them to the appropriate address)? Not everyone has a mail program installed, and it's a PITA to copy the address, open webmail, and paste it in. Just an idea... :) /Blaxthos (talk) 09:48, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

Breaking news
What's the definition for 'breaking news'? Thanks Kayau (talk · contribs) 15:29, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
 * The practical definition seems to be "may change rapidly, so heads up." See .  --Pi zero (talk) 16:27, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks! But... how's that defined? :P Kayau (talk · contribs) 16:33, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
 * It should be reserved for stories which will require the article significantly updated during the 24hrs post-publish. Those are things like major disasters where casualty figures can rise rapidly. I would advise that in such cases you avoid numbers in the article title – or lede when up as a main page lead – then the actual figure changes don't require multiple edits on more than one page or template. --Brian McNeil / talk 16:34, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Hayat Hotel terror attack in Mogadishu Somalia
Multiple sources report an ongoing assault on the Hayat Hotel and previous explosions orchestrated by the al-Shabaab terror group in the area around K-4 and Wadada Waaberi.

Updates indicate that Somali forces continue to clash with al-Shabaab fighters in the hotel, and it is currently unknown how many militants remain in the area. Initial reports indicated that at least 17 people were killed.

Updates report that at least eight civilians have been killed, as well as an unspecified number of al-Shabaab militants. The full extent of casualties has not been immediately specified. The Intelligence Chief of Mogadishu has been either killed or injured.

An unspecified number of people may remain trapped in the hotel, including government officials. However, at least 30 people have been rescued. Al-Shabaab has targeted the hotel multiple times in recent years. 95.7.210.90 (talk) 15:14, 20 August 2022 (UTC)

BSkyB director joins Setanta

July 11, 2005

The former managing director of BSkyB, Trevor East, has been appointed director of sport at Irish sports TV company Setanta. Prior to working for BSkyB Mr. East, 54, was head of sport at ITV for 22 years. The new role will involve gaining the rights to different sports events, and possibly even the premiership.

Setanta initially started out by broadcasting GAA games to Irish people living abroad particularly in the US. Today, backed by an investment by AIG, it is pursuing an ambitious plan to grow its business - it currently broadcasts the Scottish Premier League and earlier this week it bought control of North American Sports Network. North American Sports Network broadcasts baseball, NFL football, basketball and Nascar motor racing outside the US. Also in the planning stages is a European sports station for the US market.

False security alarm in Bradford, England

July 12, 2005

On Monday, Brittania House in Bradford, UK was closed due to a security alert. A Wikinews reporter received notification that the Yorkshire Building Society Howard House Branch was closed until further notice. This turned out to be an evacuation of a small area due to a suspect package. It was a false alarm.

Britain has been in an increased state of vigilance since last Thursday's attack with fifty security alerts on the Tube according to Metro newspaper and the evacuation of Birmingham city centre on Saturday night.

Yankees defeat Indians, 9-4; win 7 of last 8 heading into the All-Star break

July 11, 2005

The New York Yankees rebounded from a tough loss on Saturday to win Sunday's game 9-4 against the Cleveland Indians thanks to some timely hitting.

Randy Johnson (9-6) allowed three runs on nine hits, six of which were leadoff hits. His performance bested Tribe starter Jake Westbrook (6-11), who pitched well to start the game but then surrendered two runs in the 4th inning and three in the 5th as the Yankees' hitters constructed a lead.

Recently acquired reliever Wayne Franklin threatened to lose the lead in the 7th inning, but was saved by Tanyon Sturtze, who came on to get the final out of the inning. Gary Sheffield then responded in the bottom of the inning with a three-run homer hit deep into the right-center field bleachers, stretching the Yankee lead to 9-4.

Mariano Rivera closed out the game with a two-inning appearance, recording his 20th save. He enters the All-Star break preparing for Tuesday's game, along with Sheffield and Alex Rodriguez. The Yankees currently trail the AL East leader Boston Red Sox by 2.5 games, but face tough road series against the BoSox, Rangers, and Angels when play resumes on Thursday.

Palestinian radio station broadcasts praise for London terror attacks

July 12, 2005

A Muslim preacher has used a Gaza radio station to praise the "blessed actions" of those responsible for the London terror attacks. The unidentified preacher made an appearance Saturday on the controversial station Sawt Al-Quds, during which he praised both the London attacks and the assassination of Egypt's Ambassador to Iraq, Ihab al-Sherif.

In a statement translated by the right-wing Israel National News, the preacher also attributed the bomb attacks in London to Osama bin Laden, saying they were a timely response from the terrorist leader to scenes of public celebration following London's successful Olympic bid.

"The sirens of joy were heard in Britain, and Osama bin Laden again redrew the map, thus announcing that the voice of the subjugated will be heard everywhere."

Sawt Al-Quds ("Voice of Jerusalem") is a Syrian-based radio station broadcasting to the Gaza Strip. It is believed to be affiliated with Islamic Jihad.

The London bombings have been condemned by many Muslim clerics. Speaking of the response by Iraqis to the London bombings, a UK spokesperson for the Multi-National Division (South-East) said, "Most of the feed back from Friday pray[ers] in the British Area of Operation were against the attacks on London."

Doohan
No problem. -- Davodd | Talk 17:29, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

thanks
Thanks for battling the vandal this morning! I blocked him, but was a bit late. A tip: when vandalism happens, as soon as you get a chance from reverting him, click the Real-time chat link above and try getting hold of an admin to get the vandal blocked. Try looking to see which admins are in the room, then type their names to get their attention (I'm usually around). Dan100 (Talk) 10:03, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
 * No problem :). I'll try to remember to get into the chat next time. --Deprifry 10:34, July 26, 2005 (UTC)

The Medal of Persistence
Thanks for all the work you do in reverting vandals. --Cspurrier 12:01, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Wow. A medal :-). Thanks a lot. --Deprifry 12:05, August 22, 2005 (UTC)

election story
Hi there, i figured you might still be working on it so didn't want to disturb the title, but I think it should be 'green-lights', not lit ClareWhite 08:52, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the hint. I've moved the story. --Deprifry 09:03, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

vandalbot
Heh, that hadn't occured to me, but it makes sense. Who bothers building this sort of thing? Still, maybe even bots can be turned into good editors with a bit of persuasion ClareWhite 14:05, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

New Main Page design proposal
I invite you and others to see Main Page Talk, where I have proposed a new Main Page for Wikinews. Best wishes, NGerda 01:52, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

Well spotted! Thanks for fixing that up.... - Borofkin 09:16, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
 * No problem :). Great story btw. --Deprifry 09:31, September 1, 2005 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Are you in the contest? - Borofkin 12:14, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
 * No, I'm not. I thought about it, but school starts again in a few days and I don't want to get into a situation where I have to rush articles just to stay in the game. --Deprifry 17:08, September 1, 2005 (UTC)

Adminship
You deal with so many spammers and vandals I think it is about time you had the extra tools to stop them quicker. I would like to nominate you for adminship, will you accept?

In case you are not familiar with the RFA process, after some one nominates you and you accept, the community votes, assuming you do not get much opposition, in a week you become an admin.--Cspurrier 18:20, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

 * Uh. I'm flattered, thanks. But I'm not sure I'm ready for that just yet. I've only been contributing to WN like on a daily basis for a month, so I think I need a little more time before I can make a good admin, get familiar with all the policies and technical stuff. But again, thanks for asking. I appreciate that. --Deprifry 18:47, September 8, 2005 (UTC)
 * Ok, when ever you are ready let me know :) --Cspurrier 18:48, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

 * Will do that. Thanks :). --Deprifry 18:53, September 8, 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your story
Thanks alot for your little Winnipeg story there Deprifry. Too bad there is no metro here for those "thousand sharpened elbows" you talked about. Also, that this darker grey breaking through the lighter one makes absolutely no sense in one of the 2 sunniest cities in Canada and our gas prices here are no where near as bad as yours. Also not too sure what you mean about the bus, because most buses run the same route every day. He's called the Golden Boy, not the Golden Business Boy. So before you go slamming my city, check your facts. I'm not sure what someone coming from some town 1/8 the size of Winnipeg has making fun of us but i don't know, maybe you're jealous about us kicking your ass in WW2 or something. So ya, nice try, but you fail. --24.77.35.110 01:31, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I think you misunderstood the thing. It's actually a song by the Winnipeg band The Weakerthans and I think they quite like their hometown. --Deprifry | +T+ 05:01, 6 October 2005 (UTC)

User: Rcameronw has been blocked for requesting de-admin vote and alleged "trolling"
Just wanted to let people know that, following yesterday's discussion, user rcameronw has been blocked for 24 hours. It was decided that rcameronw's request for a de-admin vote constituted "site disruption". (see article talk page for more info:)

Pad thumbnail images
|An An example of 12 pixel padding image thumbnails from story text. Looks a bit better than images and story text touching. Seems to be browser-dependent; this looks like a fair compromise. Hope that helps!

Yes, in fact it does. :) Thanks for that. --Deprifry | +T+ 04:55, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

German opposition launches election campaign

July 11, 2005

Germany's main opposition parties, the CDU and its sister party, the Bavarian CSU, presented their manifesto for the upcoming federal election in Berlin today. With this progam, titled Deutschlands Chancen nutzen (Using Germany's Opportunities), the CDU wants to return to power in the election, which will most likely take place on September 18th of this year.

The number one issue in this election will be employment. Germany is struggling with 4.7 million unemployed people and the CDU wants to reduce labor costs and make the hiring and firing of new employees easier. The party also intends to reduce income-taxes but plans to raise the value-added tax from 16% to 18%.

Party chair Angela Merkel, the CDU's candidate for chancellor, called their program the "most honest in a long time" while incumbent chancellor Gerhard Schröder said that Merkel would make "everything more expensive and nothing better".

Funding for new Museum of Liverpool approved

July 11, 2005

In Liverpool, England the North West Development Agency (NWDA) has approved funds of nearly £33 million (about $57.6 million U.S. dollars) for the construction of the Museum of Liverpool on Mann Island at the Pier Head — part of Liverpool's UNESCO World Heritage Site waterfront. An additional £7.5 million (about 13.1 million U.S. dollars) has been allocated for the creation of a canal link across Mann Island, encompassing central docks, the Pier Head, and the Albert Dock.

The museum is to replace the current Museum of Liverpool Life. The future museum, which is presently a £65 million pound project, is to be the situated on the site of the failed "Fourth Grace" building. The "Three Graces" are: the Royal Liverpool Building, the Cunard Building; and the Port of Liverpool Building. The abortive Fourth Grace was a controversial building known as "The Cloud", the brainchild of architect Will Alsop. It was cancelled in July 2004 after local opposition, rising costs and the belief that the design was unrealistic.

The future museum, which will be designed in the shape of an "X", will feature 10,000 square metres of exhibition space on Liverpool's cultural and social history, including present exhibits of the Museum of Liverpool Life.

The two projects are considered integral aspects of Liverpool's successful bid in 2003 for the 2008 European Capital of Culture.

Fulton Fish Market leaves Manhattan after more than 180 years

July 11, 2005

Since 1822, the Fulton Fish Market on South Street in Lower Manhattan has been operating virtually unchanged and surrounded by the ever-changing NYC. It is expected to be relocated to a new $85 million, 400,000-square-foot facility at Hunts Point in The Bronx beginning this week.

Originally set for January, the move was delayed until this month to allow time to add more safety and security items at the new facility.

Some restaurant food buyers expressed concern that a move to the new facility will raise fishmonger prices. Fish stall owners agree the move raises their overhead.

Rudy Washington, deputy to former mayor Rudy Giuliani, said that a plan by the city to open the fish unloading operations to a bidding process at the new facility could lead to mafia control. During Giuliani's tenure, Washington was in charge of the cleaning up the market of mafia influence.

The market has gotten fish from a Long Island company since 1995.

Vandal
Thank you for your nice comments. Have all of his edits and pictures been reverted? Wikinews definitely needs more admins, Ryan524 and I keep getting caught in situations like this. Thank you very much for your vote, and once again, thank you for your nice comments. NGerda 16:21, Jun 2, 2005 (UTC)

Country of the week
I see country of the week seems to have died down a bit since I joined but I wondered if we could discuss nominating Rwanda for the week June 12? I will be out there (with web access) for a conference and have written a proposal for coverage on my talk page - Country of the Week might be the most practical way to make it happen: I will have a bunch of journalism students there, I can commit to writing material and there'll be an exciting youth conference going on. Rwanda has lots of interesting news for all the WN community to dig up. Please let me know what you think! ClareWhite 16:54, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Thanks very much for bringing it forward - that gives me a headstart before I venture into the unknown! I've started a temporary newshut which I hoped would help my group with it all.

Thanks!
Dear Gorman: Hi! Thank you for your welcome! It reminded me of Maverik's welcome at wikipedia three years ago, very warm and nice. Mainly the reason I came was that wikipedia was down and I needed to break the news of the six bodies found at the Yuma, Arizona house.

Im a Puerto Rican that enjoys other cultures. I love Ireland even as I have never been there. I have learned a lot about there, Aer Lingus is a fabulous company, Barry McGuigan one of my favorite boxers of all time (remember when he put a trouncing on another one of my all time favorites, Eusebio Pedroza??? I scored that fight 150-134 for Mc!!! 15 rounds to 0 in my card, with a point reduced from Pedroza for falling in round seven!) The beer is excellent, I loved that movie about the Ned that died after hitting the lottery (cant remember the movies name right now), the beer, the Celtic culture (although Im a Christian), everything. You guys have a tremendous culture, you should be very proud of the Irish! Actually, my favorite NBA basketball team are the (Boston) Celtics! LOL!

That said I want you to know Im down with the Irish as they say here in the USA which is good. Your country is great and you sound like a great guy too. Thanks for the welcome!

Sincerely yours, your wiki-friend, Antonio Martin

Republicans criticize Sen. Clinton for comparing Bush to Mad magazine character

July 11, 2005 According to an AP report, United States Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) stated during the inaugural of the Aspen Ideas Festival, "I sometimes feel that Alfred E. Neuman is in charge in Washington." The event was organized by the, a think tank unaffiliated with any particular political party.

She claimed that Bush's attitudes towards many major issues are in line with the  character's philosophical catch line: "What, me worry?" Republican groups denounced the comment, saying that Sen. Clinton was merely making a partisan attack for political gain at a time when the nation should be focusing on national security issues. spokeswoman Tracey Schmitt called Senator Clinton "part of today's angry and adrift Democrat Party."

Many have speculated that the former first lady and current New York senator will make a presidential bid in the 2008 election, but the Associated Press related Sen. Clinton's words as that she is "too wrapped up in her Senate work and re-election effort to think about that."

First gay marriage in Spain takes place

July 11, 2005

Emilio Menendez, a Spaniard, and Carlos Baturin German, an American, became the first gay couple to be married under a new law allowing same-sex marriage in Spain. The couple tied the knot in the town of, outside of. Wedding guests included family and friends, as well as journalists and politician Pedro Zerolo, the governing Socialist Party's top official for social issues.

Spain is only the third nation in Europe to legalise same-sex marriage, after the Netherlands and Belgium. The bill was passed by the lower house of Parliament on 30 June 2005, overruling a rejection by the upper house, the Senate. Although the move was opposed by groups, polls suggest that a majority of Spaniards support the decision. There were protests in Madrid prior to the bill being passed, and a Roman Catholic group submitted a 600,000-signature petition urging a referendum.

State run television broadcast images of the happy couple after the ceremony. Menendez told reporters, "The happiest day of our lives was when we fell in love with each other. We have been together for 30 years, there have been many wonderful days, today is yet another wonderful day."

White House refuses to comment on Karl Rove as source of leak

July 12, 2005

In a televised report on CNN Tuesday morning, U.S. Senators John Kerry and Hillary Clinton expressed their belief that Karl Rove, a top advisor to President George W. Bush, should be fired. Kerry spoke from the podium and answered reporters' questions, while Clinton nodded in the background. Kerry spoke clearly for the removal of Rove, and reporters who noted Clinton's nods in agreement with Kerry queried her. She replied in support of Kerry's comments, "I agree with that."

The White House refused to comment Monday on Karl Rove's involvement in the leak of the name of the covert CIA agent Valerie Plame. The New York Times reporter, Judith Miller, was jailed for violating a contempt of court order by refusing to testify about her source, and TIME magazine reporter Matthew Cooper also involved with withholding his source now appears ready to testify.

The leak of undercover CIA agent Valerie Plame's name two years ago by a member of the executive branch was in response to her husband disputing the Administration's allegations that Iraq was at the time attempting to buy so-called Yellowcake Uranium from countries in Africa. Her husband, a former ambassador under the first president Bush, Joseph Wilson has been proven correct in his assertions that Iraq was not attempting to gain or purchased uranium from Niger.

White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan refused to comment on a series of questions which increased in intensity quickly during a July 11 White House Press Briefing. The inquiries were about whether the White House stood by an earlier comment that any official found to be involved would be fired, and also about when President Bush found out that Karl Rove, his deputy chief of staff, was involved.

During the most heated part of the exchange, David Gregory of NBC News called the refusal to comment "ridiculous."

DAVID GREGORY: Scott, I mean, just -- I mean, this is ridiculous. The notion that you're going to stand before us after having commented with that level of detail and tell people watching this that somehow you decided not to talk. You've got a public record out there. Do you stand by your remarks from that podium, or not? MR. McCLELLAN: And again, David, I'm well aware, like you, of what was previously said, and I will be glad to talk about it at the appropriate time. The appropriate time is when the investigation -- DAVID GREGORY: Why are you choosing when it's appropriate and when it's inappropriate? MR. McCLELLAN: If you'll let me finish -- DAVID GREGORY: No, you're not finishing -- you're not saying anything. You stood at that podium and said that Karl Rove was not involved. And now we find out that he spoke out about Joseph Wilson's wife. So don't you owe the American public a fuller explanation? Was he involved, or was he not? Because, contrary to what you told the American people, he did, indeed, talk about his wife, didn't he? MR. McCLELLAN: David, there will be a time to talk about this, but now is not the time to talk about it.

McClellan also refused to comment on whether or not President Bush had confidence in Rove as his deputy chief of staff.

Sources tag on Thyphoon Nabi hits Japan
Hi... I was just looking at your article Thyphoon Nabi hits Japan, and noticed that the information it contains is not sourced from anywhere. At Wikinews we need to source everything that we put into articles. This can either take the form of some online news source, or original reporting.

I think your article is very worthwhile, and needs to be reported. When then article has some sources you may remove the tag. If you have any questions please leave me a message on my talk page. - Borofkin 07:51, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Well, I suppose you could say in your article something like "938 Live reports that Typhoon Nabi has hit Japan", and then include a link to the station in the "Sources" section at the bottom of the article. However, because this is such big news there will be articles all over the net about it. Try a search on news.google.com. It is worth it to see your article published. Also check out other articles about the Typhoon, such as Japan weathers Typhoon Nabi. You don't want to duplicate work that others have already done. - Borofkin 23:51, 6 September 2005 (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 Ajay. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Ajay~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 23:12, 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) 06:28, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
