- n:Wikinews:Credentials and related pages for accrediting Wikinews reporters
Please create these documents on the Wikimedia incubator and then put a note on Wikinews/Start a new edition when it is done. As a naming convention, please use [[xy.wikinews Main Page]] or [[Template:xy.wikinews NPOV]], where xy is your language code. Templates and links can be broken while the pages are constructed here on Meta.
Once you are finished, it is recommended that you post a request for creation of the language to foundation-l, pointing out that all formal and informal requirements have been met.
You can use this page to coordinate translating relevant pages. See /Archive for examples.
