What Wikinews articles are
First and foremost, they are written from a neutral point of view and don't contain opinion or commentary (if you want to tell the world what you think, try blogging.)
There are two main kinds of articles:
* Articles written using information from other online news sources. "What does that offer that I can't get from, say, Google News?", you may ask. Simple — we can combine all the facts available from all sources about a news event into a single article for the reader's convenience. We can also present the information in a neutral manner — avoiding the bias that may be present in other news sources.
* Articles written by original reporting. You yourself can write the news! We only ask that you take detailed notes and present them with your article.
Articles are also a collaboration. No one person is the 'author', and everyone is free to edit any articles, so long as the changes don't contravene our guidelines.
