NOTE: Please check that the portal box has been initiated with the following wiki code (copy/paste from below if empty):
{{Portal:Current events/Science and technology/DateHeader2|{{subst:CURRENTYEAR}}|{{subst:CURRENTMONTH}}|{{subst:CURRENTDAY}}}} <!-- All news items below this line --> *<!--First item goes here. (remove this please)--> <!-- 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.
Before posting, please familiarize yourself with posting guidelines:
- Log news events as complete sentences, in the present tense with a source.
- News stories must be in the English language and of international interest.
- Update main linked articles if appropriate.
- Only list deaths of persons of extreme prominence.
- Do not link to subscription-only sites such as AOL and WSJ. Avoid Yahoo! news, as they are temporary links and die quickly!
