<!-- NOTE: |

Before posting, please make sure you are familiar with posting guidelines: |
|||
* Please log news events in the present tense. |
|||
* Only list items with news sources; stories without links will be removed. |
|||
* News stories must be in English; no other languages please. |
|||
* For each item, please update the most relevant linked article if it is appropriate. |
|||
* Stories added to the main portal page should be of international interest. Stories of only regional or topical interest belong in their appropriate sub-pages. |
|||
* Do not list the ordinary deaths of prominent persons here. That's what [[Recent deaths]] is for. Exceptions to this rule are made for persons of extreme prominence, such as Ronald Reagan, John Paul II, or the Queen Mother. |
|||
* Please do not link to subscription-only sites such as AOL or WSJ (except in the unlikely event that a story is covered substantially better there than anywhere else). |
|||
* Please avoid Yahoo! news links, as those URLs are temporary and die quickly! (You can use a search engine to get the original source.) |
|||
