উইকিপিডিয়া:সমসাময়িক ঘটনা/Edit instructions

NOTE: If you reached this page via the current date box's "edit" link, check that the portal box has already been initiated with the following wiki code (use copy/paste from the code below, if necessary, to correct any syntax errors):

{{Current events header|{{subst:CURRENTYEAR}}|{{subst:CURRENTMONTH}}|{{subst:CURRENTDAY}}}}
<!-- All news items below this line -->
*
<!-- All news items above this line -->|}

Then save the page, before adding any news items. This will help insure the new day displays according to the Current Events portal design.

Note that the above items: CURRENTYEAR, CURRENTMONTH, and CURRENTDAY, all will display as positiveintegers once the page is saved.
For example, the code to generate 27 March 2009 (Friday) in the box should appear as " . . .Current events header|2009|3|27"

Before posting, please make sure you are familiar with posting guidelines:

Please log news events as complete sentences, in the present tense.
Only list items with news sources; stories without links will be removed.
News stories must be in the English language; no other languages please.
For each item, please update the most relevant linked article if it is appropriate.
Stories added to the main portal page should be of international interest. Stories of only regional or topical interest belong in their appropriate sub-pages, if any.
Do not list the ordinary deaths of prominent persons here. That's what recent deaths is for. Exceptions to this rule are made for persons of extreme prominence, such as Pope John Paul II, Omar Bongo, Michael Jackson, Corazon Aquino, or theJyoti Basu.
Please do not link to subscription-only sites such as AOL or WSJ (except in the unlikely event that a story is covered substantially better there than anywhere else).
Please avoid Yahoo! news links, as those URLs are temporary and die quickly! (You can use a search engine to get the original source.)

Example news item:
