Sounds interesting. It is certainly true that wikinews was never as successful as we had hoped. Perhaps this new project will manage more. Good luck! On Sep 12, 2011 9:51 PM, "Tempodivalse" r2d2.strauss@verizon.net wrote:
Greetings everyone,
I thought the Wikimedia community should know that a large portion of
WIkinews' contributor base has forked into its own project ( http://theopenglobe.org) after becoming deeply dissatisfied with Wikinews. The new wiki has finished its creation stage and is about ready to publish news articles.
At least nine users have pledged to support this fork, and several others
(including non-WN Wikimedians) are interested - more than there are active remaining Wikinews contributors.
