The sections of this portal use semicolons to crate the visual appearance of sub-headings, rather than the "==" type wikimarkup which creates proper HTML headings (they actually create an incomplete definition list). This is against the WCAG web accessibility guidelines to which we are supposed to adhere. How might we use the proper markup?

Re top item ("The Women's Cricket World Cup concludes with Australia defeating the West Indies in the final."), this can be improved to: The 10th Women's Cricket World Cup final ends with Australia defeating the West Indies by 114 runs to become six-time winners.
The picture next to it should be moved down to the meteor item, the end of which can be shortened by moving the "broken glass" reference, becoming "In central Russia, shock waves from a meteor (pictured)—the largest recorded object encountered by Earth since 1908—cause widespread broken glass to injure more than 1,000 people."

I shortened several entries in Portal:Current events/2013 June 14 substantially, because I found them way too long. I don't think Portal:Current events should be a dump of text related to events of insufficient wp:Notability to have an own Wikipedia article. On the other hand, if a topic is of enough notability, all those details (such as in this case, the gunman being barefoot) are better written in those individual Wikipedia articles instead, and having a link to those articles in Portal:Current events.

So we're going along with the tabloids in making a big deal of this birth in what is A Very Ordinary Family that is the centrepiece of symbolic wealth and power through inheritance.
OK ... embarrassing and disappointing. Americans go along with this too? Tony (talk) 03:44, 23 July 2013 (UTC)
I would like to second this opinion. It is unfair to report so many royal births, deaths, coronations, abdications, but not actual news like royal nipslips, drinking and drug problems, or other personal issues in which people (tabloids) are equally interested. But seriously, the birth of this baby is is never going to affect anyone (to count as news), and knowing about it does not count as encyclopedic knowledge. Xullius ( talk) 00:48, 25 July 2013 (UTC)
It would be nice if you had some news items that weren't about either a) death (through wars & natural disasters) and b) elections. But mostly, most of the news items you select to highlight on the front page are about death. Yes, there is occasionally a Nobel prize being awarded or a royal baby being born. But I think you should expand your understanding of what is newsworthy to allow stories that don't have a body count.
What about Jeff Bezos buying the Washington Post? Yes, maybe not of big interest in the UK or Australia but it could have an impact on the revival of newspapers. Have some major sports, arts or business news along with the massacres and floods that kill hundreds. I think it's important to know about all of them and you shouldn't judge the importance of a news story by how many people died. Newjerseyliz ( talk) 13:05, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

Ronald Coase's death is noted on the sidebar, but not under "Recent Deaths".

I'm writing here because I doubt many are watching today's sub-page. I added a blurb about how Russia gave amnesty to two members of Pussy Riot. The three news stories I found about it all mention that the amnesty comes shortly before the Winter Olympics, which will take place in Russia. The BBC story [4] says "The amnesty was widely seen as attempt to avoid controversy overshadowing the Winter Olympics in February, due to be hosted in the Black Sea resort of Sochi." The New York Times says [5] "The members of Pussy Riot, Mr. Khodorkovsky and the Greenpeace activists had all become international symbols for critics of the Russian system, and could well have been the subject of protests and demonstrations during the Winter Olympics, which will be held in the southern Russian city of Sochi in February." The Guardian writes "Lawyers say the amnesty will also enable 30 people arrested in a Greenpeace protest against Arctic oil drilling to avoid trial—removing an irritant in ties with the West before Russia hosts the Winter Olympics in February." Even RT News, [6] while not explicitly drawing a connection to the Olympics, quotes one of the released prisoners as calling the amnesty a "PR stunt". In my opinion, the skepticism about the amnesty is a noteworthy point of view, but another editor disagrees: [7] [8] [9] — rybec 19:30, 23 December 2013 (UTC)
I'm sure the old hands here have discussed this before, but as a relative newbie I'm wondering about the policy for something: For a story like the one about the beating of Tetiana Chornovol, where the event occurred on one day (the 25th) but the news reports are dated the next day (the 26th), where should the story be listed? I had a similar question about the death of Ayyub Khalaf, which occurred on the 18th and was reported on the 19th.

The Michael Schumacher ski injury story appears here for December 29. The same story is a currently unsuccessful candidate to appear on In The News (by already being here it is in effect on page 2 of ITN, since you get here by clicking on 'More Current Events' in ITN). Given the lack of any discussion about bringing the two blurbs into line, I suspect I was not alone in not realizing it was already here, information which would have been relevant to the discussion there.

if everyone added there'd be too much news ?
2) is there somewhere i should look to see my and other articles not appearing on current events page ?
3) should i guess it was augo deleted or someone didn't like the article ?

I understand removal of my "edits" to other articles. But it appears people are deleting my articles right out of my sandbox so that i can't even access them. That should be illegal i was still working on it (as opposed to simply hiding it from view of others - which also i don't like). Is that what's going on?
Also (if he doesn't delete again). If you see the article it has references / citations to back up what it says. If crime statistics are misreported and i prove it with references that is news just as much as anything observation is. And heorhe zimmerman is news? for like two years straight?

I understand it has been discussed before but my reasoning is that were on an ENGLISH Wikipedia. Therefore if there is an English news source it takes priority over a foreign language news source. Not saying we should have a big discussion about it, it just seems common sense to me that an English news source would be put on the English Wikipedia over another language. Also the conflict has been resolved to a Washington Post article, that is in English, as the news source. -- Newsjunky12 ( talk) 12:16, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

I find it a sad state of affairs that in the age of '24/7 news cycles'[which aren't anymore] the current event section goes flat on weekends. There is no excuse other than plain laziness to kick the can. Our media [read news and weather information services] were far more on top of their game in bringing us 'instant/embedded' news and weather forecasting accurate out past seven days! Somewhere ratings, and entertainment, and thrift have left weekends an information wasteland. If the Second Coming, Alien Contact, or World War III happens Saturday night... don't expect to hear about it until the following Monday. And I'm quite disappointed that Wikipedia current event editors have fallen into the same pattern. It is disgusting that over the past 15 years as more people have access to information the more trivially it is driven. Feed the lemming masses trending nonsense while the world as we know it circles the drain. Doyna Yar ( talk) 04:53, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

The news summary reads "Israel launches an offensive on Gaza amidst rising tensions following the killing of Israeli teenagers in June." This is misleading and incorrect, Israel did not do any offensive in response to the kidnappings. The current operation is in response to rocket fire which has been occurring for the past 3 weeks and has intensified earlier this week. It should read "Israel launches an offensive on Gaza in response to nearly three weeks of rocket fire into Israel." The current headline suggests Israel is attacking in response to the three teens which were kidnapped. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.89.247.214 ( talk) 13:35, 10 July 2014 (UTC)

I think we should put War in Donbass back in the "Ongoing events" box in the frontpage. The link was removed after signing the ceasefire. However, if you look at the timeline Timeline of the war in Donbass, similar amount of people are dying per day than as before the "ceasefire". Separatists don't seem to be accepting the ceasefire agreement. NATO SACEUR says that the ceasefire is "cease-fire in name only", stating that "the number of events, and the number of rounds fired and the artillery used across the past few days match some of the pre-ceasefire levels". As far as I see it the conflict is ongoing, and as such it should get more coverage as it's an ongoing event, and it is quite significant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.140.133.57 ( talk) 08:19, 24 September 2014 (UTC)

Please bear with me on this one. Following a recent dispute over the inclusion of content relating to the above matter, I'm seeking consensus on whether or not we should mention the by-election, which occurred in the UK on Thursday 9 October 2014, on the appropriate current events page. The poll saw the election of Douglas Carswell, who became the first candidate from the United Kingdom Independence Party to win a seat in the UK Parliament, receiving 60 percent of the vote. Carswell had switched allegiance from the Conservatives to UKIP a few weeks earlier and resigned his seat, triggering the by-election. UKIP are an anti-EU, anti-immigration party, which were considered to be on the fringe of politics until fairly recently, but have gained in popularity at the expense of the UK's three mainstream political parties, something that could have far-reaching consequences for Britain and countries beyond its shores. At the same time as the Clacton by-election was taking place, another by-election in Heywood and Middleton saw a Labour Party candidate hold onto a safe seat with a tenth of the previous majority after losing votes to UKIP, which ran a close second.
Information about these events was added by me to the page for 9 October, but later removed by another editor, who objected to its inclusion on the grounds that the events were not significant enough for inclusion in Current events. This decision was overturned by Capitalistroadster, but their edit quickly reverted for the same reason. Another addition of it by Everyking was also reverted. I then restored the original information the following day, and added the result of the by-elections to 10 October, highlighting its significance. Again the information was removed, for both days (see this and this). When I challenged this, the editor claimed that there was no international coverage of the elections, but I quickly discovered several articles about it in newspapers as diverse as The New Zealand Herald, Washington Post and The Australian (there is no link to the latter because the information is behind a paywall). After restoring the entries with these sources, things then took a rather bizarre turn when the information was removed again, with the editor saying that it was not notable because we had no coverage of an incident in Pakistan that had resulted in several deaths, that two of the sources were only reporting the elections because they were based in "Commonwealth Realms" reporting on events in the mother country, and that the Washington Post was no good either because he/she hadn't been able to find it personally (see this, this and this).
I believe the information to be notable, and feel I have demonstrated it to be so. I can provide other international references if required, but in order to resolve this matter without further drama, I am seeking to gain consensus on whether or not we should cover this topic. A discussion on the 9 October talk page would suggest the criteria have been met, but do others think these two by-elections are notable enough for here? I understand there's also a wider issue that we apparently have no guidelines for this page, but that's for another discussion. There is, however, a history of inclusion of by-elections from a number of countries, such as UK, Ireland, New Zealand and United States (though I believe they are called special elections there)., and this appears to have gone unchallenged until now. Consequently the matter needs to be put to bed, as it were, to avoid future such disagreements. The proposed entries are as follows:
9 October 2014
10 October 2014

I have repeatedly posted the news article on Nov 1 2014 and Oct 31 2014 referring to a rocket being fired into southern israel, violating the ceasefire from Aug 26th, and the residents requesting military intervention. As this could lead to further hostilities in conflict, it is important to mention. Each time it keeps being removed by the same person. The wording is not biased or subjective and plainly states the facts, the article is referenced to times of israel and yahoo news via associated free press. Eframgoldberg ( talk) 20:59, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
The article and news headline itself does not violate any policy and it is relevant to the ongoing conflict between Israel-Gaza in which both sides have tried to manipulate media to their advantage, which is why objective reporting is even more important. In follow up Hamas arrested 5 individuals responsible for firing the rocket into Israel. As Hamas is the elected leadership of Gaza, they are a priori responsible for attacks from Gaza. By your logic, the government of Gaza is not responsible for armed attacks by it's population on a neighbooring state, so either a. Hamas has no control over the people of Gaza in which case they are not valid representatives of the people and this is considered a terrorist attack, or B. as acting government they are responsible and it is a breach of the cease fire. Regardless of the politics/background behind the event, it is still important. Nuances such as number of injured/destruction of property, retaliation, or claimed of responsibility are not requirements for having a news article posted. Relevance to current events, objective reporting, and unbiased headlines are requirements. Eframgoldberg ( talk) 17:50, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
@ Mrjulesd: This edit to Portal:Current events/News Browser has added another inch or two to the total depth of the headers at the top of the page.

Can we discuss and reach a consensus please on the guidelines for certain adjectives. Depending on the conflict, the use of certain adjectives might appear as a political bias, I have tried to review past current events but there is an inconsistency to many of the labels. Some instances I can think of off the top of my head are: whether perpetrators of attacks are termed militants, terrorists, operatives, etc.? should incidences be called attacks, terrorist attacks, aggression, or other terms? delineation between protesters and rioters? how specific should victims be described, i.e. gender, age, religion, etc? the use of the terms "alleged", suspect, and perpetrator? I think we can avoid lots of political debate if we can have guidelines for terms such as these that we can consistently follow. Eframgoldberg ( talk) 23:47, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

Hello to all current events posters and editors. I would like to raise a question to you all. In the 21st century cyber attacks are becoming more and more frequent on both countries and companies. Now on the Jan 1 current events page someone has put a cyber attack on Chick-fil-a under the "Armed conflicts and attacks" section. I was debating weather to move it to the "Business and economy" section but I couldn't bring myself to do it yet. So my question is, should we classify cyber attacks on companies under the "Armed conflicts and attacks" section or should we only put cyber attacks against countries in that section? Should we include cyber attacks on that section at all? I look forward to the response and opinions of everyone why would like to answer. For now I will leave that story under that section but in a way I don't think it should be there. -- Newsjunky12 ( talk) 02:18, 2 January 2015 (UTC)

So we're going along with the tabloids in making a big deal of this birth in what is A Very Ordinary Family that is the centrepiece of symbolic wealth and power through inheritance.

I would like to second this opinion. It is unfair to report so many royal births, deaths, coronations, abdications, but not actual news like royal nipslips, drinking and drug problems, or other personal issues in which people (tabloids) are equally interested. But seriously, the birth of this baby is is never going to affect anyone (to count as news), and knowing about it does not count as encyclopedic knowledge. Xullius ( talk) 00:48, 25 July 2013 (UTC)
It would be nice if you had some news items that weren't about either a) death (through wars & natural disasters) and b) elections. But mostly, most of the news items you select to highlight on the front page are about death. Yes, there is occasionally a Nobel prize being awarded or a royal baby being born. But I think you should expand your understanding of what is newsworthy to allow stories that don't have a body count.
What about Jeff Bezos buying the Washington Post? Yes, maybe not of big interest in the UK or Australia but it could have an impact on the revival of newspapers. Have some major sports, arts or business news along with the massacres and floods that kill hundreds. I think it's important to know about all of them and you shouldn't judge the importance of a news story by how many people died. Newjerseyliz ( talk) 13:05, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

I'm writing here because I doubt many are watching today's sub-page. I added a blurb about how Russia gave amnesty to two members of Pussy Riot. The three news stories I found about it all mention that the amnesty comes shortly before the Winter Olympics, which will take place in Russia. The BBC story [4] says "The amnesty was widely seen as attempt to avoid controversy overshadowing the Winter Olympics in February, due to be hosted in the Black Sea resort of Sochi." The New York Times says [5] "The members of Pussy Riot, Mr. Khodorkovsky and the Greenpeace activists had all become international symbols for critics of the Russian system, and could well have been the subject of protests and demonstrations during the Winter Olympics, which will be held in the southern Russian city of Sochi in February." The Guardian writes "Lawyers say the amnesty will also enable 30 people arrested in a Greenpeace protest against Arctic oil drilling to avoid trial—removing an irritant in ties with the West before Russia hosts the Winter Olympics in February." Even RT News, [6] while not explicitly drawing a connection to the Olympics, quotes one of the released prisoners as calling the amnesty a "PR stunt". In my opinion, the skepticism about the amnesty is a noteworthy point of view, but another editor disagrees: [7] [8] [9] — rybec 19:30, 23 December 2013 (UTC)
I'm sure the old hands here have discussed this before, but as a relative newbie I'm wondering about the policy for something: For a story like the one about the beating of Tetiana Chornovol, where the event occurred on one day (the 25th) but the news reports are dated the next day (the 26th), where should the story be listed? I had a similar question about the death of Ayyub Khalaf, which occurred on the 18th and was reported on the 19th. (I removed that one from the page for the 20th, which was clearly wrong.) -- Alexbook ( talk) 18:13, 26 December 2013 (UTC)

The Michael Schumacher ski injury story appears here for December 29. The same story is a currently unsuccessful candidate to appear on In The News (by already being here it is in effect on page 2 of ITN, since you get here by clicking on 'More Current Events' in ITN). Given the lack of any discussion about bringing the two blurbs into line, I suspect I was not alone in not realizing it was already here, information which would have been relevant to the discussion there.

if everyone added there'd be too much news ?
2) is there somewhere i should look to see my and other articles not appearing on current events page ?
3) should i guess it was augo deleted or someone didn't like the article ?
4) is there any way i can get email update so i don't have to log in to find out ?

I understand removal of my "edits" to other articles. But it appears people are deleting my articles right out of my sandbox so that i can't even access them. That should be illegal i was still working on it (as opposed to simply hiding it from view of others - which also i don't like). Is that what's going on?
Also (if he doesn't delete again). If you see the article it has references / citations to back up what it says. If crime statistics are misreported and i prove it with references that is news just as much as anything observation is. And heorhe zimmerman is news? for like two years straight?

Also the conflict has been resolved to a Washington Post article, that is in English, as the news source. -- Newsjunky12 ( talk) 12:16, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

I find it a sad state of affairs that in the age of '24/7 news cycles'[which aren't anymore] the current event section goes flat on weekends. There is no excuse other than plain laziness to kick the can. Our media [read news and weather information services] were far more on top of their game in bringing us 'instant/embedded' news and weather forecasting accurate out past seven days! Somewhere ratings, and entertainment, and thrift have left weekends an information wasteland. If the Second Coming, Alien Contact, or World War III happens Saturday night... don't expect to hear about it until the following Monday. And I'm quite disappointed that Wikipedia current event editors have fallen into the same pattern. It is disgusting that over the past 15 years as more people have access to information the more trivially it is driven.

The news summary reads "Israel launches an offensive on Gaza amidst rising tensions following the killing of Israeli teenagers in June." This is misleading and incorrect, Israel did not do any offensive in response to the kidnappings. The current operation is in response to rocket fire which has been occurring for the past 3 weeks and has intensified earlier this week. It should read "Israel launches an offensive on Gaza in response to nearly three weeks of rocket fire into Israel." The current headline suggests Israel is attacking in response to the three teens which were kidnapped. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.89.247.214 ( talk) 13:35, 10 July 2014 (UTC)

I think we should put War in Donbass back in the "Ongoing events" box in the frontpage. The link was removed after signing the ceasefire. However, if you look at the timeline Timeline of the war in Donbass, similar amount of people are dying per day than as before the "ceasefire". Separatists don't seem to be accepting the ceasefire agreement. NATO SACEUR says that the ceasefire is "cease-fire in name only", stating that "the number of events, and the number of rounds fired and the artillery used across the past few days match some of the pre-ceasefire levels". As far as I see it the conflict is ongoing, and as such it should get more coverage as it's an ongoing event, and it is quite significant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.140.133.57 ( talk) 08:19, 24 September 2014 (UTC)

Please bear with me on this one. Following a recent dispute over the inclusion of content relating to the above matter, I'm seeking consensus on whether or not we should mention the by-election, which occurred in the UK on Thursday 9 October 2014, on the appropriate current events page. The poll saw the election of Douglas Carswell, who became the first candidate from the United Kingdom Independence Party to win a seat in the UK Parliament, receiving 60 percent of the vote. Carswell had switched allegiance from the Conservatives to UKIP a few weeks earlier and resigned his seat, triggering the by-election. UKIP are an anti-EU, anti-immigration party, which were considered to be on the fringe of politics until fairly recently, but have gained in popularity at the expense of the UK's three mainstream political parties, something that could have far-reaching consequences for Britain and countries beyond its shores. At the same time as the Clacton by-election was taking place, another by-election in Heywood and Middleton saw a Labour Party candidate hold onto a safe seat with a tenth of the previous majority after losing votes to UKIP, which ran a close second.
Information about these events was added by me to the page for 9 October, but later removed by another editor, who objected to its inclusion on the grounds that the events were not significant enough for inclusion in Current events. This decision was overturned by Capitalistroadster, but their edit quickly reverted for the same reason. Another addition of it by Everyking was also reverted. I then restored the original information the following day, and added the result of the by-elections to 10 October, highlighting its significance. Again the information was removed, for both days (see this and this). When I challenged this, the editor claimed that there was no international coverage of the elections, but I quickly discovered several articles about it in newspapers as diverse as The New Zealand Herald, Washington Post and The Australian (there is no link to the latter because the information is behind a paywall). After restoring the entries with these sources, things then took a rather bizarre turn when the information was removed again, with the editor saying that it was not notable because we had no coverage of an incident in Pakistan that had resulted in several deaths, that two of the sources were only reporting the elections because they were based in "Commonwealth Realms" reporting on events in the mother country, and that the Washington Post was no good either because he/she hadn't been able to find it personally (see this, this and this).
I believe the information to be notable, and feel I have demonstrated it to be so. I can provide other international references if required, but in order to resolve this matter without further drama, I am seeking to gain consensus on whether or not we should cover this topic. A discussion on the 9 October talk page would suggest the criteria have been met, but do others think these two by-elections are notable enough for here? I understand there's also a wider issue that we apparently have no guidelines for this page, but that's for another discussion. There is, however, a history of inclusion of by-elections from a number of countries, such as UK, Ireland, New Zealand and United States (though I believe they are called special elections there)., and this appears to have gone unchallenged until now. Consequently the matter needs to be put to bed, as it were, to avoid future such disagreements. The proposed entries are as follows:
9 October 2014
10 October 2014

I have repeatedly posted the news article on Nov 1 2014 and Oct 31 2014 referring to a rocket being fired into southern israel, violating the ceasefire from Aug 26th, and the residents requesting military intervention. As this could lead to further hostilities in conflict, it is important to mention. Each time it keeps being removed by the same person. The wording is not biased or subjective and plainly states the facts, the article is referenced to times of israel and yahoo news via associated free press. Eframgoldberg ( talk) 20:59, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
The article and news headline itself does not violate any policy and it is relevant to the ongoing conflict between Israel-Gaza in which both sides have tried to manipulate media to their advantage, which is why objective reporting is even more important. In follow up Hamas arrested 5 individuals responsible for firing the rocket into Israel. As Hamas is the elected leadership of Gaza, they are a priori responsible for attacks from Gaza. By your logic, the government of Gaza is not responsible for armed attacks by it's population on a neighbooring state, so either a. Hamas has no control over the people of Gaza in which case they are not valid representatives of the people and this is considered a terrorist attack, or B. as acting government they are responsible and it is a breach of the cease fire. Regardless of the politics/background behind the event, it is still important. Nuances such as number of injured/destruction of property, retaliation, or claimed of responsibility are not requirements for having a news article posted. Relevance to current events, objective reporting, and unbiased headlines are requirements. Eframgoldberg ( talk) 17:50, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

Can we discuss and reach a consensus please on the guidelines for certain adjectives. Depending on the conflict, the use of certain adjectives might appear as a political bias, I have tried to review past current events but there is an inconsistency to many of the labels. Some instances I can think of off the top of my head are: whether perpetrators of attacks are termed militants, terrorists, operatives, etc.? should incidences be called attacks, terrorist attacks, aggression, or other terms? delineation between protesters and rioters? how specific should victims be described, i.e. gender, age, religion, etc? the use of the terms "alleged", suspect, and perpetrator? I think we can avoid lots of political debate if we can have guidelines for terms such as these that we can consistently follow. Eframgoldberg ( talk) 23:47, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

Hello to all current events posters and editors. I would like to raise a question to you all. In the 21st century cyber attacks are becoming more and more frequent on both countries and companies. Now on the Jan 1 current events page someone has put a cyber attack on Chick-fil-a under the "Armed conflicts and attacks" section. I was debating weather to move it to the "Business and economy" section but I couldn't bring myself to do it yet. So my question is, should we classify cyber attacks on companies under the "Armed conflicts and attacks" section or should we only put cyber attacks against countries in that section? Should we include cyber attacks on that section at all? I look forward to the response and opinions of everyone why would like to answer. For now I will leave that story under that section but in a way I don't think it should be there. -- Newsjunky12 ( talk) 02:18, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
