We should add how contributors can report a news item, and how administrators may handle it in terms of where, if any usage of it on the wiki, to avoid the issue we had with the season 4 rumor from Sackhoff and Olmos, too. --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 10:11, 17 May 2007 (CDT) | Looks good.

:Totally. Unless you're conducting "wiki-business" under the "wiki-name", feel free to leave us out of it. That's not to downplay the value/significance of running across a juicy tidbit of information, just that that's not part of our core mission.
