Does Wikipedia source news from Wikinews?
- ldjb 10y ago
  Wikipedia does not provide news outside of the 'In the news' section (it does provide encyclopedic entries on current events, but that's not quite the same thing). The 'In the news' section lists already existing articles, which must contain references. User generated websites are usually not considered reliable sources for Wikipedia, so Wikinews shouldn't normally be used as a reference in Wikipedia articles.
