New request

This bot creates caterory date and archiving date, too. If you don't accept it, the Bot will do interwiki only. So, the robot will do only interwikis as the statutory deadlines will not be passed to receive approvals and objections.--Grondin 12:24, 11 май 2009 (UTC)

Не разбирам защо заглавията на статии в началната страница се появяват по два пъти ? --Stanqo 11:07, 7 януари 2011 (UTC)

Swedish Wikinews no longer active

Per consensus at sv:Wikinews:Pressrummet#Dags att stänga svenska Wikinews (Google translation, scroll down to last section), the Swedish Wikinews is no longer active. I therefore ask you to consider removing the interwiki link to the Swedish Wikinews at the Main Page. Heymid (беседа) 17:20, 11 август 2013 (UTC)

Reverting the “new main page design”

I have reverted the new main page design and I kindly ask to not put it back—at least not without a proper discussion here with as wide as possible community participation. Apart from the obvious fact that such changes seem inappropriate given the now likely imminent project closure and deletion, and also the clearly broken elements of the new design (improper layout, untranslated messages, etc.), I have one very strong specific objection, namely, the text “We are a group of volunteers whose mission is to present reliable, impartial and relevant news. (...) Wikinews stories are written from a neutral perspective to ensure fair and equitable reporting.” I believe this to be an untrue and misleading message, given the concerns expressed by many members of the global Bulgarian wikicommunity. While arguing over these issues is probably already pointless, for as long as I am an administrator here, I'd like to ask that the opinion of that community is at least respected. Thank you.

Това е точен превод от англоезичните Уикиновини. --Stanqo (беседа) 11:48, 10 септември 2019 (UTC)

It may be an exact translation of the text from the English Wikinews, but this here is not the English Wikinews.
