Overview of Wikinews in the NY Times
Aaron Weiss provides a look at "The Unassociated Press", which he considers to be Wikinews, in this New York Times article. He provides an overview of the project, mentions a few specific stories, and has quotes from a few of those involved in the project.
If this article were on Wikinews, I would uncapitalize wiki because I’m used to seeing it in a lower case form. It makes me bristle the same way Web Blog does.
Also, I’m getting tired of reading articles about Wikimedia’s projects that quote Robert McHenry a former editor of the Encyclopedia Britannica. Since this article focuses on Wikinews, not Wikipedia, I’d be more inclined to use a quote from someone in the realm of journalism: maybe the editor or former editor of a well-known news source or a journalism professor or expert.
