Anyway, you can't, as standard user, trash or completly undo article into wiki. (except if you are a Power Being, i am not :)
I am not worried about what users may do to stories, I am worried about what the next person to read the story might believe after someone may do something. Sure, the something may be fixed up quickly, but mr or ms naive may read the story in the meantime.
A simple addition to the page template would give them all the information they need to put our site into it's correct context.
Anyway, i think that your source ask for MORE security, fiability and quality on wikinews than in Real Reality newspapers, don't he/she ? (ok, it's the goal but need time and willing peoples)
No, my source simply wants to know if people can alter the story willy nilly after I quote them. I will have to reply yes, they can, but I would like to be able to say 'but our readers are warned of this'.
Right now, I can say that our readers may know it, they probably will, but they may not.
it's my POV ... :)
Thankyou for it. I hope I will hear more of them ;)
Jacques,with a twisted humour sense for a very serious case.

hi, me again sorry..
Naive people, but also : kids, simple minded people low education people, low english/French level (foreigners,...) Amish (science fiction ok, it's just to point)
the list is infinite I think.
Everyone is able to misunderstood Knowledge for any possible reason.
In the past, and still in some countries Knowledge is reserved to "accredited" people or scolars. Do you want that ?
Why exaggerate what I asked so much? No, I don't want that. I want to add about three words, maybe an extra line if it was convenient, which helps someone who visits wikinews for a single page to understand that the site is not the same as other news sites they would visit.
Perhaps you don't even understand the difference yourself.

Frankly real world is not "Disney" movie, even naive people (i hope) could understand that.
i have NEVER see a newspaper with warnings about "novelty or to early tag"... i do not think that real time news tv chanel warned people ....
they should ??? is your source asked the same question to them ???
../.. i stop i have job to do .... ::)
ho, One last thing :
How do you trust Source when your on wiki, difficult... Did he/she got a little sticker uppon his/her forehead saying "TRUST IN ME !"? An id Card maybe ???
don't tell me it's an Official from some gouvernment or firm...
tssss
