But maybe I'm wrong. Has anyone accomplished anything by saying "yeah, I'm a reporter for some website, you can go to this url and look at a page that anyone in the world can edit, and that proves it"?
"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.
