Other useful press-related information
[edit]For press inquiries directed *to* you
[edit]Please see Press and the Communications Project for more details. You can also see the en:Wikipedia:About page for more.
For press passes, etc.
[edit]There is no such thing as a Wikipedia press pass yet, though samples have been made (see the talk page). Wikinews has a formal accreditation process for Wikinewsies; see the link on the talk page - this is also a good place to discuss how to find a contact near an event you are attending (to rent or borrow equipment, etc.),or how to get into restricted events. If you are planning to attend as a reporter and write your own original pieces on the event, please consider joining the Wikinews project.
