Especially using a nuclear bomb, however capable we are, is the biggest evil in history. Taking credit to ending the war that way is way overridden by the evil.

A Hospital in the Syrian city of Idlib had been targeted on Monday night, killing at least 23 people and leaving dozens injured.

The attack on the city of Idlib believe to be the work of the Syrian and Russian government forces conducting airstrikes. Opposition activists claim the hospital was targeted to punish civilians in rebel- held areas. However, the Russian and Syrian government believe they are targeting terrorists and have denied any civilian casualties.

Eight strikes were conducted at the national hospital in Idlib, which also destroyed several buildings in a crowded area of the city. According to opposition activists. Witnesses from the White Helmet rescue group believe the strikes were carried out by a Russian aircraft. Moscow had joined the on air attacks last September, which is said to have slowed the rebels control over areas such as Idlib.

Hospitals in the neighbouring city of Aleppo have been hit dozens of times this year, with three women killed last month when an airstrike targeted a maternity ward. 50 people were also killed in Aleppo last month when a pediatric hospital was hit. Doctors and medical workers are finding it harder to reach victims due to 57% of hospitals are closed down or partly functioning. According to NGO Medics Under Fire, 15,000 doctors have fled Syria since the regime of Bashar al- Assad.

The attacks in Idlib and Aleppo bring the death toll of the Syrian war to 250,000 which began in 2011.

Over 270 civilians reported killed from shelling in Syria

June 6, 2016

More than 270 civilians were killed in 24 hours from militant shelling in cities according to a report on Saturday from the  Center for Reconciliation of the Opposing Sides in Syria. The report, published on the Russian Defense Ministry website, also stated that hundreds of civilians have been injured. In a message directed to the 's and  head, the Syrian Foreign and Expatriates Ministry reported the attacks came from "moderate" opposition groups that were joining the  and its affiliates in, Syria. According to the Center on Saturday, one of the opposition groups,, joined the Al-Nusra Front for an attack against militias, which effectively forced Kurds to retreat from their positions in the city on Saturday.

The militants' reported new offensive took place in a cessation of Russian and Syrian warplane activity beginning over a week earlier, which enabled the militants to regroup. According to the Russian Defense Ministry, the cessation was meant to permit groups coordinating with the and Russia to separate themselves from the the Al-Nusra Front.

However, Russia's foreign minister,, said on television that the United States had requested Russia avoid targeting the Al-Nusra Front, which has affiliations with. In response, a spokesperson stated on Friday that the request was to avoid targeting civilians or legitimate opposition.

Talk:Over 270 civilians reported killed from shelling in Syria

Sources and paywalls/subscriptions
Surprisingly, the NYT article is accessible — if opened in an Incognito/Private browsing window. They've been a serious problem in the past as Wikinews does not accept paywalled/subscription sources. Unfortunately, the WSJ article will have to be dropped from sources as it demands a sign-in/subscription.

The rationale behind rejecting paywalled sources is that nobody should need to give away any personal data, or actually pay, to verify the content of a Wikinews article. --Brian McNeil / talk 09:54, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

Many sources
There is many sources. This means it may easily take an hour and a half to read them all and process the information therein.

Are they all used in the writing of the article? If they're not, they may be removed.

(The sources section is only for listing sources which the information was pulled from into the article, not for listing every possible source about this topic. That makes reviewer's work easier.)

--Gryllida 07:19, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

The first two paragraphs
To put the event upfront, would it be better to rewrite the first two paragraphs as following?
 * On Tuesday in the city of, rebels of the  fired s and rockets at the communities of  and Kafraya. This was allegedly a retaliatory action for  airstrikes on these targets. Later, eight injured civilians were treated at a local field hospital.
 * Russia’s foreign minister,, said yesterday that is requesting  airstrikes avoid targeting the  branch in Syria, the . The  defended its request to , saying it asked Russia to avoid hitting civilians, but Russia denies it has been causing civilian casualties. The situation is fluid, with denial and rebuttal.

That is something I am not sure of -- whether the focal event needs to be the yesterday one or the Tuesday one with further fresh developments in next paragraph.

Verb forms
From my understanding the article needs to be rewritten in past tense. --Gryllida 08:21, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

«Russian airstrikes»
The allegation that these were Russian airstrikes seems to be a subject of a debate. I have not yet read deeply enough to figure out what evidence there is.

If there is a remaining doubt in the fact, we could just say «Tuesday's airstrikes» instead.

--Gryllida 08:24, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

Headline
I am not seeing a direct connection from the 'hospitals' in the headline to the lede, or even to the second paragraph.

May we name this "Kurdish militias targeted in northern Syria" instead? (Assuming that fact has been established for sure, with little controversy.) --Gryllida 02:58, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

Review of revision 4221918 [Not ready]
Yes please - can we rename the story.
 * When viewing the article page (not this collaboration page), on the control bar at the top of the page, on the far right there should be a drop-down menu. "move" or "rename" on that menu changes the name of the article.  --Pi zero (talk) 00:50, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

Green Bear and Car

Denotes the most excellent act of physical profundity, that of making the Chatauqua hike to GreenMountain peak, proceeding on to Bear Mountain peak, and returning via an excursion to and through the premises of NCAR before returning to Chatauqua starting point. Rarely executed, and even more rarely done right. And fast. And never, ever done with a cool sexy smart accomplished competent female partner. Until now. Her name is Cristina.

Two people killed in apparent murder-suicide at UCLA

June 3, 2016 Two people were killed in an alleged murder-suicide at the, Los Angeles (UCLA) campus on Wednesday. The shooting occurred on the fourth floor of the Engineering IV building. The university's campus was in for about two hours after the shooting from 10:00AM to noon local time.

The (LAPD) have identified 39-year-old William S. Klug as the victim in the murder-suicide. He was an associate professor of the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. The shooting occurred in his office. According to the Police, the shooter was identified as Mainak Sarkar, a former student of the professor.

According to the Police, Mainak Sarkar had accused William S. Klug of stealing Sarkar's computer code and turning it over to someone else. According to, in March Mainak Sarkar had written in a blog post about William S. Klug, "We had personal differences. He cleverly stole all my code and gave it another student. He made me really sick. Your enemy is your enemy. But your friend can do a lot more harm. Be careful about whom you trust. Stay away from this sick guy", and included a photo of the professor.

According to the LAPD, a note was found near scene and helped find the home address of the shooter and establish the fact of suicide.

During the lockdown students were asked to stay in a sheltered location, and those who moved around the campus were told to walk with their hands up and were searched by police officers. Classes were cancelled for the rest of the day. Final exams and were to run as scheduled, and most classes were to resume as normal Thursday morning.

William S. Klug had been leading the Klug Research Group which specialised in theoretical and computational. He was a father of two, a nine year old son in fourth grade and a seven year old daughter.

Hi. I noticed you created a page in mainspace, but it was missing all the required formatting elements. If you create an article using any of the article-creation forms scattered about the site — such as the one at WN:WRITE — it sets up those required elements for you. Looking at other problems with the page you created, I recommend you start by reading WN:Pillars of Wikinews writing, which compactly overivews what an article should be trying for, and then try the excellent tutorial at WN:WRITE. --Pi zero (talk) 15:47, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

Glencore announces Tahmoor mine in New South Wales to close

June 3, 2016

mining company announced yesterday the closure of its coal mine in, ,. The mine is to be closed by early 2019, pointing to the downturn of coal prices in global markets.

Glencore stated, "The decision has been made as a result of continued low prices in global coal markets, which has meant the economic return from reserves still available at Tahmoor are not sufficient to warrant the investment required to mine them".

The closure will result in a loss of 350 jobs according to the company, who said they are consulting with the employees.

The mine is not the only operation impacted by the fall of global coal and commodity prices. The Australian arm of mining magnate has reported losses of almost 3 billion in 2015. According to latest financial reports for Peabody subsidiary Peabody Australia Holdco lodged via, the company earned a net loss of A$2.7 billion — after a loss of A$1.2 billion in 2014. Accountants at Peabody Australia have warned the mine might not be able to continue operating, with the market persistently weak since December.

Despite low coal and commodity prices, both the major political parties have been supportive of coal mines. While appearing on the ABC's  program on Monday night, Coalition MP confirmed party support of coal mines. In response to an audience member question, concerning what policies the panellists had planned to combat job and economic loses in after the mining boom, Ciobo stated the Coalition government supports ’s new  in the  — as an example of “transitioning” the state's economy.

MP said although she doesn't personally support Adani's Carmichael project, the state Labor government "didn't have much discretion" surrounding its approval. Meanwhile, party leader  criticised responses from the panellists claiming the "great tragedy" is both major parties support of coal mines such as Carmichael.

"If you care about tourism you don’t open up a whopping great big coal mine and fuel catastrophic ", said Di Natale.

Di Natale accused both major parties of being deceitful in "slashing" both the target of and agency funding for, leaving no plan to realize the investment potential of the renewable sector.

Alves to leave FC Barcelona

June 4, 2016

On Thursday, FC Barcelona technical secretary announced Brazillian football defender Dani Alves would leave the club this summer as a free agent. Alves spent eight seasons with the Catalonians when the club signed him from. Making his debut for Barça in 2008, Alves played 391 matches and he played the second most games of any foreign player in the Catalan jersey after Lionel Messi. In his last league appearance for Barça, he provided an assist to Luis Suárez which was Alves's 100th assist in La Liga.

Alves won 23 trophies with Barclona — six La Liga, four, four , three UEFA Champions League, three s and three s.

Last season Alves extended his contract, as FC Barcelona had a transfer ban imposed by FIFA. Robert Fernández said in the press conference that Aleix Vidal was signed with awareness of Alves's possible departure. He also said, "This is personal decision that the club has to accept".

Alves posted on Instagram saying,.

FC Barcelona has invited him to address club supporters at the 2016–17 season start in farewell.

Server switch 2016
The Wikimedia Foundation will be testing its newest data center in Dallas. This will make sure Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia wikis can stay online even after a disaster. To make sure everything is working, the Wikimedia Technology department needs to conduct a planned test. This test will show whether they can reliably switch from one data center to the other. It requires many teams to prepare for the test and to be available to fix any unexpected problems.

They will switch all traffic to the new data center on Tuesday, 19 April. On Thursday, 21 April, they will switch back to the primary data center.

Unfortunately, because of some limitations in MediaWiki, all editing must stop during those two switches. We apologize for this disruption, and we are working to minimize it in the future.

You will be able to read, but not edit, all wikis for a short period of time.

 * You will not be able to edit for approximately 15 to 30 minutes on Tuesday, 19 April and Thursday, 21 April, starting at 14:00 UTC (15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST, 10:00 EDT, 07:00 PDT).

If you try to edit or save during these times, you will see an error message. We hope that no edits will be lost during these minutes, but we can't guarantee it. If you see the error message, then please wait until everything is back to normal. Then you should be able to save your edit. But, we recommend that you make a copy of your changes first, just in case.

Other effects:

Red links might not be updated as quickly as normal. If you create an article that is already linked somewhere else, the link will stay red longer than usual. Some long-running scripts will have to be stopped. No non-essential code deployments will take place.
 * Background jobs will be slower and some may be dropped.
 * There will be a code freeze for the week of 18 April.

This test was originally planned to take place on March 22. April 19th and 21st are the new dates. You can read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org. They will post any changes on that schedule. There will be more notifications about this. Please share this information with your community. /User:Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 21:08, 17 April 2016 (UTC)

Regarding uploading images
Apologies in advance, I'm still fairly new to this whole thing. Can I upload pictures I found on the internet if I reference them properly or get permission from the photographer who took them? Like a picture of a recent sporting event for example. How does one go about getting these permissions?
 * Well, you can not upload any photos you find on the internet. Also getting permission is not easy. And even if you get, there is a chance that they are not the ones who own the photo. A good way to search would be using filters on Google images for labeled for reuse with modifications in the Usage Rights or Commercial use & mods allowed on Flickr. 14.139.242.195 (talk) 17:40, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Wikinews has a fair-use policy that specifically excludes images under copyright by other news orgs. We had an incident a few years ago where someone found an image they really liked on the internet, asked the site owner if they could use it, and the site owner said something like 'sure, go ahead'; and it later turned out that the site owner had grabbed the image from a news site.  The point being, we have to be really, really cautious about images lying around on the internet.  We almost always stick to stuff that's on Commons.  --Pi zero (talk) 17:49, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for clearing that up. I am in the process of trying to get a reply from someone regarding an image I would like to use, but I'll be sure to start using those filters you mentioned on Google and check out Flickr. I should also probably try making more of my own pictures through Paint and GIMP for articles. --Handraulic (talk) 18:05, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
 * By the way, the photo you used for UCL semi-final was not necessary. Instead, you can see the templates available or create one. 14.139.242.195 (talk) 19:11, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Serious? I'm sorry to sound like a complete novice, but where do I see that/create one? That will sure help for the next time! --Handraulic (talk) 20:50, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Well, till the end of May, 14.139.242.195, Agastya Chandrakant, and acagastya; all three accounts are handled by me to avoid confusion. You know, I have just completed a year on Wikinews. I would suggest you to see some news articles previously published so that you can understand how and when are they used. You will find all the sports template here Category:Sports templates. We did not have a tennis scorecard and so I created the template at Template:Tennis scorecard. It was tricky to make, you should know Wiki Markup Language for it, and if you want it to be visually appealing, you should know CSS. And you would eventually learn both. And you can always ask me (on my talk page). Just to begin with, footballbox, yel, goal, sent off, penmiss, pengoal, suboff and subon is what you would require for football match reports. And one more thing: ping won't work for IP editors. acagastya   ⚽ 🏆 🎾 🎬 🎤 📰  21:20, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
 * One more thing: you can visit my talk page archive: I was working with few templates on my talk page. acagastya   ⚽ 🏆 🎾 🎬 🎤 📰  21:47, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

Regarding Categories
Hello. How does one create a new category? I would like to update and add in some new teams to the existing Category:Football (soccer) clubs page, but I don't exactly know how to create one. --Handraulic (talk) 10:42, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi, Handraulic. Adding categories isn't easy to do atm (pending long-term semi-automation improvements, of course).
 * You'd want to
 * (1) be sure the new category fits into our category system; some cats would be appropriate for an encyclopedia (for example) but not for a news site, or somewhat different names would be used here. There should be at least three published articles ready to go in the category; we don't usually create cats smaller than that (except by accident, and many of those we delete).
 * (2) Make a list of articles in our archives that should go into the new category. Put the list on some water cooler with an editprotected tag (with links to the articles); the request will have to be handled by an admin, and this should be an easier way to handle things than putting requests on the talk pages of all the individual articles — that was done with a massive request some months ago and we still haven't got the editprotected queue unclogged from it.
 * (3) The category page itself should eventually get a topic cat template, but doing that can be complicated, so alternatively you can temporarily just have the category page with its parent categories (as long as we're not talking about a whole lot of categories all at once). Eventually of course we want a semi-automated assistant for things like setting up topic cat (and other parts of this process).
 * There are probably hundreds of categories we could create because we have at least three published articles for each and no one of them would be controversial, but we can't do them all at once. Some of them would be quite difficult to figure out how to handle.  We've been working for several years on improving things, and things have improved, a great deal.  Everything became infinitely easier once we started using the w template (which I've been slowly retrofitting to our archived articles, working backward in time from when we started using the template).  When we first created w, there'd be just a few local links in a typical article, now it's common for most of the links to be local.  A particular notable step forward was when Blood Red Sandman created and populated a set of categories about nuclear technology (before which we only had one related category, on nuclear proliferation).
 * --Pi zero (talk) 11:44, 6 May 2016 (UTC)

OK. Copy that. Thanks for the reply. It all sounds quite complex, but I'll try to remember that for next time. I think I'll hang back a bit on the cats and just concentrate on updating the sport articles for the time being. --Handraulic (talk) 12:17, 6 May 2016 (UTC)

Brisbane man granted bail on charge of raping 15-year-old girl

June 6, 2016

At the, a 19-year-old man from , was granted bail on Saturday after being charged with raping a 15-year-old girl late last week.

Magistrate John Costello granted the defendant bail on condition he report to the police station three times weekly, stay at home at his current address at night unless his work required otherwise, and contact neither complainant nor witness.

At the hearing, there was a question of whether the defendant knew the victim's age. Patrick Quinn, the defendant's lawyer, claimed she showed the defendant fake identification showing she was over 18, and only told him her real age the next day. Sergeant Scott Pearson, Police prosecutor, said the defendant's texts to friends indicated he was aware she was underage, and said one person advised he "get rid of the evidence". The court was told the girl maintained she had been honest about her age from the beginning and had not shown any false identification.

Consent was also questioned. Quinn argued all the sexual activity was consensual. The defendant admitted to oral and vaginal sex, but not sodomy.

The two had met Thursday night at the in  before heading to his home around 3:00 local time. The man was charged with four counts of rape, as well as one count of unlawful sodomy of a person under 18 and three counts of indecent treatment of a child under 16.

The defendant is to be tested for disease. The Court is to resume the case on July 4, 2016.

June 7, 2016

Tennis player, aged 22, defeated Serena Williams 7–5, 6–4, on Saturday to win the 2016 French Open women's final in Paris.

Cassius Clay

 * He was born Cassius Clay, but he changed his name. The lede is wrong on that point.  --Pi zero (talk) 22:04, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

Name spelled incorrectly
It is supposed to be Muhammad Ali. Stevietheman (talk) 16:02, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Well, yes. I noticed it before it was published. But both the spellings are acceptable and sources mention spellings with a and E as well. acagastya 16:13, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
 * I agree, both spellings are correct, however there are no vowels in hebrew language, therefore the word used in the Song of Solomon to indicate “beloved” which is mekhmad - מחמד (MHMD) but in hebrew could be mistaken as the name of the Muslim prophet Mohammed which means “praiseworthy” in Arabic. Of course, it can also be spelled Muhamed or Muchamed as in Slavic lingos. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by AliVsRocky (talk • contribs) 00:59, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
 * It is an Arabic name, and Arabic has harakat. That entire part about vowels is hence incorrect. •–• 21:39, 11 September 2018 (UTC)

Neutrality problems...
The non-neutral statements are in bold for reminding;

Often considered the greatest boxer of all time, Ali was the world heavyweight champion in the 1960s and 1970s. His famous fights with in 1974 when he won his title back and against  are considered by many as two of the greatest fights in the sport's history. Ali had also defeated  to claim the championship title.

I have questions;
 * Who considers Ali to be the greatest boxer of all time? Because saying that he is often considered to be the greatest boxer of all time is a weasel supporting a peacock, and that is not NPOV.
 * I don't think the word famous is necessary to describe his fighting. Adjectives need not apply, except for colors and shapes. Writing that a source says that X is great is better than just writing that X is great.
 * Who considers those two fights to be the greatest in fighting history? This is also a weasel supporting a peacock. That isn't NPOV either. Wikinews has a strict NPOV policy like Wikipedia.

If you think that usage is justified by the sources, then I think we should attribute those opinions to the sources. I may have to realize this is a news place and not an encyclopedia. (I'm blocked indefinitely from both English Wikipedias for persistent disruption (I was trying to make Wikipedia articles more neutral and many editors didn't like what I did) and I refuse to associate any emails with my account because I prefer to appeal blocks intra-wiki and I don't ever respond to email messages) But I still think that we shouldn't write that genocide is an evil action and instead say that genocide has been described by John X as being the epitome of human evil. I don't think we should say that Hillary Clinton is evil; we should list her crimes and cite reliable sources from a neutral point of view. --Turkeybutt JC (talk) 13:49, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Messi, Maradona, Maldini, Pelé and Ronaldinho are often considered one of the best footballers ever. There is no point of violation of NPOV policy. And the same goes for this. acagastya 18:32, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

On the campaign trail in the USA, May 2016

June 13, 2016

The following is the first edition of a monthly series chronicling the U.S. 2016 presidential election. It features original material compiled throughout the previous month after an overview of the month's biggest stories.

In this month's edition on the campaign trail: a former Republican congressman briefly joins the Libertarian Party and runs for vice president; the Democratic Party names its National Convention Platform Drafting Committee amid controversy; and Wikinews interviews a candidate who had a surprisingly strong performance in the West Virginia Democratic presidential primary.

Summary
On the campaign trail in early May, the Republican Party primary race grew more contentious as it reached its final stages. On the same day as the May 3 Indiana primary, Republican front-runner Donald Trump, who held a sizable delegate lead over his two remaining primary challengers, Senator of Texas and Ohio Governor, cited the  to accuse Cruz's  of involvement in the  of President. Cruz, whom Trump branded as "Lyin' Ted," attacked Trump as a "pathological liar" and "serial philanderer." Trump won Indiana by a large margin, prompting the second place Cruz to end his campaign. Thereafter, both the media and Chairman  christened Trump as the presumptive nominee, even though he had yet to secure the requisite number of National Convention delegates. The next day, Kasich finally suspended his candidacy. As Trump pivoted into general election mode, he faced a vocal within the party and a significant polling deficit against the Democrats. A national CNN/ORC poll showed Trump trailing Democratic front-runner by double digits. Nevertheless, unlike the GOP, the outcome of the Democratic primary race remained undecided. Although Clinton maintained a significant delegate lead, a CNN poll showed her ahead of sole rival, Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, by only eight points. In fact, Sanders won the Indiana Democratic primary, making nine victories out of the latest fourteen contests to that point. Commencing his general election campaign, Trump announced he would participate in fundraising after self-funding his primary campaign. He named former presidential rival, retired neurosurgeon to head a group to search for a running mate. And, in a show of pro- sentiment, he tweeted a photo of himself with a on. Still, the Republican Party remained divided. Paul Ryan said he would not commit to endorsing Trump. He called for Trump "to set aside bullying, [...] belittlement, and appeal to higher aspirations." Ryan's comments drew criticism from former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and former 2016 presidential candidate Mike Huckabee, among others. However, former candidates and, as well as former Presidents George W. Bush and George H. W. Bush, all said they could not support Trump's candidacy. 2012 Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney and  editor both called for an independent presidential candidate to run as an alternative to Trump. Ryan called this "a disaster," and sought unity by inviting Trump to a Republican congressional leadership meeting and offering to step down as chair of the GOP National Convention if Trump so desired. Despite the internal strife, Trump continued his focus on the general election, branding Clinton as "crooked Hillary," and attacking her for "want[ing] to abolish the ." He also pivoted on policies, advocating for a rise in the federal and taxes on the wealthy. The campaign announced that five or six names were on the vice presidential shortlist including former presidential candidate. showed Trump leading or close behind Clinton in head-to-head match ups in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Florida. Clinton won the caucus in Guam and the campaign shifted to West Virginia and Nebraska. On the eve of the May 10 primaries, Cruz, still on the ballot in Nebraska, announced he might restart his campaign if he won the state. Instead, Trump won Nebraska by a wide margin and won West Virginia by an even wider margin. On the Democratic side, Sanders won West Virginia as voters turned on Clinton after she expressed unencouraging views about the. ABC News exit polling there revealed nearly half of Sanders supporters said they would vote for Trump if Clinton won the nomination.

Vice President Joe Biden, who had been expected to mount a 2016 campaign until he ruled it out in late 2015, admitted in an interview with ABC that he had planned to run for president in 2016 but the plans derailed upon the death of his son. He revealed Senator as his preferred running mate and endorsed her for the Democratic vice presidential nomination. Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada cautioned Democrats against nominating a sitting Senator like Warren to avoid decreasing the number of Democrats in the Senate. Trump launched an assault on Warren, referring to her as "goofy" and for a previous claim of  ancestry. On May 12, Trump had his much anticipated meeting with Ryan. Afterwards, the two issued a joint statement calling the meeting "a very positive step toward unification." Ryan still withheld his endorsement though Trump asked Ryan to remain as chair of the National Convention. Polls from mid-May showed Trump edging closer to Clinton in national head-to-head match ups, as Trump faced a barrage of controversies. Both Clinton and Romney called on Trump to release his tax records. He said he might release them, but maintained it was "none of [the public's] business." Media reports also scrutinized Trump for allegedly acting as his own publicist in the early 1990's. He denied the allegations outright. Next, The New York Times published an exposé about Trump's treatment of women throughout the years. The validity of the story came into question when the lead interviewee claimed The Times had taken her account out of context. On May 17, Trump easily won the Oregon primary. The next day, for the first time in months, a Fox News poll showed him with a national lead over Clinton. That same day, he released a list of eleven judges whom he would consider nominating to the U.S. Supreme Court. He later received an endorsement from the. In the Democratic race, Sanders won the Oregon primary and narrowly lost to Clinton in Kentucky. He was also able to add five of his supporters to the Democratic National Convention platform drafting committee, ensuring greater influence over the party platform. Clinton rejected a debate with him and announced there would be no further primary debates. Trump offered to debate Sanders, which Sanders accepted, though Trump later backed out. Clinton went on the offensive against Trump for his past business bankruptcies, saying he "could bankrupt America like he's bankrupted his companies." She won the Washington primary on May 24. However, the next day, an Inspector General report said she did not comply with State Department policy when she sent official e-mails on a private server while Secretary of State.

Following a victory in the Washington Republican primary, Trump traveled to New Mexico, where the sitting Republican governor snubbed his event. Trump attacked Martinez during the rally, later asking, "If I have a Republican that’s not on my side, why should I be particularly nice to that person?" Shortly thereafter, during a speech in California, he renewed attacks against Romney, Cruz, Kristol, and Jeb Bush. Former rival Marco Rubio announced he would release the delegates he won during the primary to support Trump and said he would be willing to go on the campaign trail for Trump, if asked. Rubio also apologized to Trump for derogatory comments he made earlier in the campaign. Trump mathematically secured the Republican nomination, when an uncommitted slate of delegates in North Dakota committed to supporting him. Meanwhile, the Libertarian Party commenced its and nominated for president, on the second ballot, former New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson, the party's 2012 presidential nominee. Also on the second ballot, for vice president, the party nominated Johnson's pre-selected running mate, former Massachusetts Governor, who had just left the Republican Party to become a Libertarian. Trump called Johnson a "fringe candidate." Johnson was not the last such candidate introduced in late May. Seemingly ending his search for an alternative to Trump, Kristol tweeted that he had found an "impressive" independent candidate. Bloomberg reported the candidate was little-known writer of the . On the final day of May, Trump held a press conference in which he revealed the veterans charities he donated to after raising $5.6 million during a fundraiser he held in January in lieu of attending a debate. Trump excoriated the national press for its coverage of his campaign and referred to one reporter as "sleaze." With the June 7 California primary ahead, Clinton received the endorsement of California. The latest polls showed her with a two point advantage over Sanders in the state. In the average, she led Trump in the general election nationally by 1.5%.

Ex GOP congressman joins LP, seeks VP, then leaves
As soon as Donald Trump secured the Republican presidential nomination, Libertarian Party (LP) membership applications doubled. Longtime Republican consultant, former Massachusetts governor William Weld, and former Congressman of Michigan, were among those who left the GOP in May to find a new home in the LP. While Matalin enthusiastically backed Libertarian presidential runner-up Austin Petersen, and Weld won the party's vice presidential nomination; Bentivolio, who had endorsed Dr. Ben Carson for president before joining the party, had a much different experience. "It was suggested by a few supporters I run [for vice president] as a libertarian," says Bentivolio, a teacher and veteran of the and  wars, who earned the moniker "the accidental Congressman" after his  surprising 2012 election, "I briefly entertained the idea of running and spent time investigating the party."

Bentivolio, 64, unexpectedly won the Republican nomination to represent in 2012, after the sitting Congressman, Thaddeus McCotter, a 2012 presidential candidate, was unable to run for re-election after his petitions to qualify for the primary ballot were deemed fraudulent. Upon his victory in the general election, Bentivolio went to Washington, joining the and the. He took an active role in introducing and sponsoring successful legislation, becoming, according to an historian of the House, one of the most effective freshmen Congressmen of recent times. listed him as the most transparent Republican freshman in the. Nevertheless, during his single term, he frequently bucked the party leadership, voting against a resolution to the, calling for the of President Barack Obama, and agreeing to seek congressional hearings over. In 2014, Bentivolio lost his seat to attorney, a primary opponent with a fundraising edge and the backing of the Republican establishment. After leaving Congress, Bentivolio suffered financial difficulties and had to file for in 2015, partly the result of his expensive primary campaign against Trott.

When Bentivolio joined the LP in May, he filed a Form 2 with the Federal Election Commission to run for vice president. Libertarian national chairman encouraged Bentivolio to run for his old congressional seat in addition to vice president. This was not well received by the local Libertarian Party, which feared such a run would violate Michigan's ; the same law that prevented Gary Johnson from appearing on the ballot in 2012. As a consequence, the local party nominated another candidate to run for the seat.

"The district delegates [five in total] voted for another as the House candidate", recounts Bentivolio, "[the candidate's] wife was the deciding vote."

Afterwards, Bentivolio expressed doubt about the party platform, saying it amounted to "judicial supremacy," which he rejects, referencing the 1857, which affirmed the rights of slaveholders. He added, "I am 100% and an  and many in the Libertarian Party are  and support slavery in their immigration policy." He cited these as his reasons for ending his vice presidential campaign.

After Gary Johnson and William Weld won the party's presidential and vice presidential nominations at the 2016 Libertarian National Convention, Bentivolio offered his perspective on Johnson and Weld. Though he considered Johnson, "a nice guy and honest," he felt Johnson "thinks government has all the answers." In contrast, Bentivolio said he personally believes "government is the problem" and only supports "a government within the strict limitations clearly expressed in the Constitution." He described Weld, a member who proposed strict  measures as governor, as someone who "supports big government."

Bentivolio has left the LP and now is an independent. He remains undecided on whether to support Donald Trump for president. To help him decide, he is currently researching claims of a woman named "Katie Johnson" who filed a lawsuit accusing Trump of rape. Trump's attorneys dismiss the suit as a hoax.

DNC aims for unity with Platform Drafting Committee picks; controversy ensues
Every four years, the Democratic Party holds its National Convention, nominating a presidential ticket and conducting official business. One important item is the drafting of a to express the party's principles and vision for the future. A special committee is formed to draft the document. In May, fifteen individuals were named to the committee. Democratic National Committee (DNC) chair selected four of the members while the two presidential candidates picked the remaining eleven in proportion to the votes each candidate received in the primaries. Hillary Clinton, the party's presidential front-runner, selected six. Bernie Sanders chose five, though the DNC rejected one of his original picks, a union leader, leading to charges of anti-union bias in the DNC. Still, upon the release of the names,  magazine argued Sanders' input provided the committee with a " majority." Wikinews was able to reach out to one of Sanders' picks to see what he planned for the platform. For the committee, Wasserman Schultz tapped Congressman Elijah Cummings, who is to serve as the head; Congresswoman Barbara Lee, the only returning member from 2012; former Congressman ; and Bonnie Schaefer, former of. Clinton selected Ambassador ;, head of the ; ; , former administrator of the  (EPA); Congressman ; and union leader Paul Booth. Sanders picked Dr. ; Congressman, the first Muslim elected to the US Congress; , head of the ; , a Native American activist; and , a renowned environmentalist. McKibben, a Schumann Distinguished Scholar at who co-founded the climate change awareness organization, tells Wikinews that his Vermont roots may explain why Sanders selected him for the committee. However, McKibben has worked with Sanders previously on climate and energy issues, and The Boston Globe has described him as "probably the nation’s leading environmentalist."

"I'd like to see [the platform] reflect the fact that since the last election the planet's climate has deteriorated dramatically, with record temperatures, melting ice, and dying coral", says McKibben, "So that means we need to move more aggressively, both to cut our reliance on fossil fuels and to boost renewable energy."

McKibben is not the only member who prioritizes environmental issues. Browner, who headed the EPA during the entire presidency of Bill Clinton, has worked under President Obama as the director of the. While the environment is given a strong emphasis, Sanders has raised the point that labor representation on the committee is lacking.

In 2012, union leaders Donna Harris-Aikens of the and Thea Lee of the   were on the committee. This year, the only union leader is Booth of the. Sanders attempted to include executive director, but Wasserman Schultz vetoed the pick. Sanders, in a press conference, accused the DNC of "not want[ing] representatives of labor unions on the platform drafting committee." The DNC rejected the charge.

"We worked carefully with both campaigns to ensure overall balance and representation," says DNC spokeswoman April Mellody, "[we] have 100% confidence that the views of our allies in the Labor community will be well represented in our Party’s platform as they have always been."

Amid the division, McKibben expresses hope that though the platform is often "forgotten not long after it's written," perhaps the 2016 platform "will play a role in uniting the party."

The committee is set to convene at the July 25–28 in Philadelphia.

Interview with overachieving West Virginia Democratic protest candidate
In the May 10 West Virginia Democratic primary, Bernie Sanders defeated Hillary Clinton 51.4 percent to 35.8 percent. Of the remaining 13 percent, nearly nine went to little-known protest candidate, a attorney who entered the race to challenge President Obama's energy policies. Wikinews reached out to Farrell to ask a few questions about the campaign. During the campaign, Farrell did not hold any fundraisers and his only spending was the $2,500 filing fee to appear on the ballot. He believes Obama's policies, which Clinton supports, have hurt the coal industry, a major sector of West Virginia's economy. Many West Virginians, even Democrats, share this view. While mining still makes up 17 percent of West Virginia's (compared to 3 percent nationally), since 2009, coal production has declined around 45 percent in the south part of the state. 332 mines have closed and almost 10,000 jobs or 35 percent of those in the industry, have been lost. West Virginia's unemployment is the worst in the nation. According to ABC News exit polls from the primary, only 26 percent of West Virginia Democrats want to continue Obama's policies.

Although registered Democrats outnumber Republicans roughly 577,000 to 378,000 in West Virginia, Republican presidential candidates have won the state in every election since. ABC exit polls indicate a third of Democrats plan to vote in November for Trump, who has campaigned in favor of the coal industry. Trump is popular in West Virginia, having won 77 percent in the state's GOP primary. He holds a 27 point lead over Clinton in the latest head-to-head match up.

West Virginia Democrats have a history of going against the national party establishment. Notably, prison inmate won 41 percent in the 2012 primary against Obama, who was seeking re-election. Judd was on the ballot again in 2016, but received only 1.8 percent of the vote. Judd's 2012 performance was one of the reasons Farrell cited for entered the race. In addition, he told the Charleston Gazette–Mail back in January that the candidates running did not share "West Virginia values." He had hoped to secure some national convention delegates but just fell short. He was able to come in second place in the coal-rich, where he outpaced Clinton 23.7 percent to 21.4 percent.

With Wikinews, Farrell discusses, his specific problem with Obama's energy policy, what he is looking for in a presidential candidate, and his views on Trump.

How were you able to get over 8% of the vote in the West Virginia Democratic Primary?
 * Farrell: The 2016 Democratic nominees for President of the United States support President Barack Obama's executive order which we disparagingly refer to as the "war on coal."  West Virginia voters take exception to abruptly bankrupting our economy without a comprehensive plan to rebuild our infrastructure. The presumptive nominee, Hillary Clinton, lost all 55 counties in West Virginia. Voters did not cast a ballot for me; they cast a ballot for the candidate with "WV" listed after his name in protest to Mrs. Clinton's energy policy.

Do you plan on supporting the Democratic presidential nominee come November?
 * Farrell: No. I will support the candidate that adopts a platform that rebuilds our economy which President Obama dismantled and pledges to pass legislation during his/her first "100 days."

What are your thoughts on presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump?
 * Farrell: Mrs. Clinton made the campaign promise to put "coal miners and coal companies out of business." Mr. Trump says he will fight for West Virginia.  Even if Mr. Trump is full of shit, I choose to fight rather than surrender. Most of the southern coal fields of West Virginia stand with me.
