"Reporters" of pl.wikinews tried it two times. Once during a press
conference, then trying to get into a place for photographers, to make
a good photo for the article. We weren't let in, because we had no
press credentials.

There you go. The point of this email is just to prove that we NEED
press credentials, press badges, and stuff like that. But this also
has to be international. This has to be discussed between the
Wikinewsies of the major Wikinews languages and the Board.
