Requesting a block for a violation of policy? Wikinews:Blocking policy states that administrators may block users who "excessively and consistently break site policy. Admins should only do this as a last resort - efforts to educate must be made first, followed by warnings." Admins can not and will not block unless this policy is followed. Please do not raise an alert here unless efforts to educate the user have been made, and warnings have been given. If you have an ongoing problem with another user, you should consider Wikinews:Dispute resolution.

Random musings from Wikimania

As I am stuck in Cairo airport for quite some time I have been dumping as much of what I picked up at Wikimania onto the Misc. section of the Water Cooler. Please reasd this and add comments, I don't want to be dealing with all of this myself. There is a lot to go through, and it is important that we work out what order things need to happen in. Ad-hoc emails to staff and board tend to get a quick look then left for later and forgotten about. Sue wants a list of requirements for Wikinews and we need to draw it up in the order it has to happen. Since some of these points will require developer intervention this has to be carefully thought out. Some items will be lower priority, so add your ideas such as "How to get to a stage where Google's news agregator will list us" and so on. --Brian McNeil / talk 10:36, 20 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Here are some of the subjects that Brian McNeil has started for thought about the future:
  1. No article left behind
  2. Involvement of Journalism schools with Wikinews
  3. Tips for Reporting on a conference
  4. Recruitment and retention
  5. Mobile Wikinews
  6. Wikinews workflow

Thanks SVTCobra, all the ones on the Water Cooler were typed up in Cairo airport while I drank three large cups of real coffee. By the time I got to my gate I was shaking. :) --Brian McNeil / talk 08:37, 25 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Category:Proposed policies

There are currently 19 pages that have been sitting in Category:Proposed policies for a while now. These should either be demoted from being a "Proposed policy", or discussed and put to formal proposal state as to whether or not to make them policies. Cirt (talk) 02:16, 1 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

I've always been a fan of the idea of proposed policies always staying proposed (policies should generally be followed, but if you have a good excuse, you shouldn't feel constrained by policy nor should policy be unchangable). just my opinion. Bawolff 03:01, 8 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
I think after a time they should be marked as historical, and the proposed tag removed. Cirt (talk) 03:09, 8 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
