[edit] List of United States journalism scandals - merger proposal
I put this on the 'To do' list on the main page:
At the moment there are two United States journalism scandals list/articles. The second is the List of United States journalism scandals (which is a more concise list, created after an AfD) - a merge is currently being proposed from the old list to the new. Comments from this project are particularly welcome (and needed, as neither list is well known or well attended). I have "been bold" and put this merge into "To Do", as I believe it is highly relevant to the project, and that the result could have important ramifications... --Matt Lewis (talk) 00:12, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Lord of the Universe RfC
Hi there, I was wondering if anyone could toss their two cents worth in on this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Lord_of_the_Universe#Request_for_Comment Please & thank-you. -- Maelefique (talk) 18:52, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Are these notable?
The Charleston City Paper and The Charleston Regional Business Journal do not seem notable to me. However, I don't imagine to know what the standard for notability is within the scope of journalism. Someone from this project may want to review the pages and see if they warrant a nomination for deletion. - SCgatorFan (talk) 01:39, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- Well has there been coverage about them in WP:RS/WP:V secondary sources? Cirt (talk) 02:39, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Suggestion
If I may make a suggestion, I think someone should request a bot go through categories like Category:Free daily newspapers, Category:Newspapers really, and Category:Journalism stubs, etc. tagging all the articles into this project. For some (like the stub cats), the bot could also assess the article as well. The articles in the project are pretty haphazard right now. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 17:39, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Looking for an article
Does Wikipedia have an article about the use of "military analysts" in war news coverage, as discussed by the New York Times in this recent exposé? I was looking for something to link to (perhaps a section of a general article on the use of specialist analysts in media, or something about government and military manipulation of the media), but couldn't find anything that discussed this subject. Is there one? Should there be? Is it just a news story, or is there encyclopedic content here? (There are certainly implications for journalistic ethics, and the blogosphere is pushing the story pretty hard, although aside from the New York Times story the mainstream media has been very quiet on it — unsurprisingly, considering that it doesn't cast them in a very good light.) —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 04:03, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- I think the closest related existing article would be War correspondent. Cirt (talk) 02:40, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
