Wikipedia talk:Contact us/Press inquiries

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I added a means for unofficial contact. Comments from Jimbo are great, but reporters also like "man on the street" comments.

My immediate motivation for this was this recent article in a South African newspaper. It mentions that "Wikipedia did not respond to M&G Online's queries", a situation I found rather silly given that there are Wikipedians online 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. No reporter should ever be unable to get comments from somebody here, no matter how tight their deadline.

If anybody's got a better idea how to do this, feel free to add it. Contacting an admin or a very active user is more likely to get quick results than emailing Jimbo, but it's still kind of klugy. Isomorphic 21:03, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
