[Foundation-l] Wikinews translation request

Fri Oct 15 01:31:00 UTC 2004

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
