Forwarded message from Erik Moeller via Foundation-l:
This page:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikinews
now contains five basic requirements for the launch of Wikinews, as
outlined in my previous message:
http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2004-October/001228.html
Most specific policy ideas have been moved to
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikinews/Thinktank
and are considered non-binding, should the project be approved. This
allows us to evaluate whether the community wants Wikinews to start, and
to let us then concentrate on how to do it, using the ideas we have
collected as inspiration. The vote will take place on:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikinews/Vote
starting October 22, 2004, 20:00 UTC. Until then, I ask people to
translate these pages into other languages. I have also put this call for
translations on [[m:Translation requests]]. Is there any other page I
should use?
On October 22, I will announce the vote in many places to get as much
interest as possible.
Regards,
Erik
