International Wikinews Writing Contest/log/September 2

September 2

• Hey, can someone make the font a bit smaller, as it was on September 1st? It's kinda a drag to have to scroll through all of this...thanks!
• Don't worry, it will get easier when people start dropping out. Expect a batch to drop out September 3, as those who haven't written any articles will be dropped at the end of that day. StuRat 12:37, 3 September 2005 (UTC)

  • Judge's comment: I reviewed it, and decided it wasn't ready to publish due to unconfirmed POV sources and lack of opposing POV. I would welcome the opinions of other judges on this matter. StuRat 16:00, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
