[WikiEN-l] Online Newspapers Considering Subscription Model

[Surreptitiousness]

I have access to a newspaper library through my library card, don't 
other Wikipedians have a similar access, or at least realise such things 
exist?  This idea that newspapers will lose utility as a source if they 
go behind pay-walls is a non-starter as far as I can make out, because 
that would imply we stop spourcing from books that people can't readily 
access, which would rule out huge swathes of stuff.  And anyone who 
removes a source because they can not access it wants shooting, you ask me.
