As news considered let it be 24X7 always. So need more
than 5 people
in the team i think
And if you all prefer mark one specific domains, as
they have
expertise, like politics, business, technology etc etc..
So more than a number the team needs good journalists
rather than just
information providers..

I strongly agree with you Ginu.
There is a huge difference with the encyclopedia.
With wikipedia, we do not need all expertises at the same time, one area can be greatly
improved for a couple of months, while another goes unnoticed for months.
Wikinews on the other hand, requires much more that people makes team, if only to try to
cover a couple of areas.
Even if there are few editors and cannot cover all news, a team of 4-5 in scientific
covering could make it very successful in a small areas.
This is doubly interesting in Wikinews as news are interesting only for a couple of days,
not weeks, months or years as in the encyclopedia.
As long as a wikinews will be unable to cover all news topics, I think it should focus on
providing good news in *one* area and get famous thanks to it.
