”’Our key policies”’ – if you read anything, read these!
*[[Wikinews:Neutral point of view]] – tell every side to a story in a fair and balanced way
*[[Wikinews:Cite sources]] – everything in a Wikinews article ”must” be sourced
Here a few pointers to help you ”’get to know Wikinews”’:
*[[Wikinews:Introduction]] – overview of the site
*[[Wikinews:Writing an article]] – how to write and publish a complete article
*[[Wikinews:Content guide]] – what’s suitable for Wikinews
*[[Wikinews:Contents]] – the contents page.
*[[Wikinews:Newsroom]] – The comunity portal
There are always ”’things to do”’ on Wikinews:
*[[Template:Latest news|Existing articles]] need expanding and checking for spelling and mistakes
*The front page lead articles often need [[Wikinews:Workspace#Update leads|updating]]
*[[Wikinews:Workspace#Work on current stories|Developing stories]] need finishing and publishing
*[[Wikinews:Water cooler|Discussions]] need your input
*And of course, stories need [[Wikinews:Writing an article|writing]]!
