message: Nice template.  It seems clear, NPOV, maybe a bit large on the page, but well done. I need to get into how templates like this are made. Calicocat 06:48, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks! The best way to do it is to copy one: both news trade and journalism templates have edit links on them that point them to the template, in this case at :Template:News-trade and :Template:Journalism. The  in the page will have the exact name minus the "Template:" prefix. -SV|t|add 07:19, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: This is a new field of journalism and I think it should be included in the Template.  It is essentially news video games.  I started an article for it.  It's very rough and I plan to return to it.  I'm a new contributor, not sure how to give it stub classification.  Check it out: Interactive journalism.

thread_title: Journalism culture

message: I would like to propose adding a category Scientific skepticism to the Areas section (and maybe Genres as well?) This is a category of journalism distinct from science journalism. It concerned with topics that mainstream science does not generally address, such as UFOlogy, the paranormal and conspiracy theories, as well as countering claims of alt-medicine advocates. People in this field write for journals such as Skeptical Inquirer and Skeptic (U.S. magazine). How do I make this addition? RobP (talk) 16:16, 10 September 2019 (UTC)

message: Issues with this template.  When I first saw this it did not contain the link to a highly questionable article named "news trade," then I saw it did, or if it was there in the first place, I didn't check all the articles it linked to and then found it's path to "news trade" original research. With that link present, this template is POV and violates policy on [no original research |original research]. I strongly object to the article "news trade" and with it's inclusion on this page, I just strongly object to this template and caution any others to not make use of it, if it contains the a link to News Trade Calicocat 15:45, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: This template is looking great, I'm just wondering if it needs some kind of border, it seems to be kind of floating? Also, do you think it should have a little less width? You do such good work with the templates that I'm reluctant to add or change anything. Cheers, Calicocat 20:40, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

message: We have two projects going, the journalism one and I started a media project to help me understand how to work on the journalism project. I was thinking that we should make the Journalism project a decendent of the Media Project.

*members needed
*  Journalsim Project
*  Media Project
I was trying to do it and I still don't get the syntax. I still don't grock how to use the template namespace or a basic html editor for simple wiki tables, etc...gree. anyway, what do you think about including them? Take care, Calicocat 11:26, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

message: Remember that the template, (if used on article space,) should avoid self-references - that is intended for readers, not primarily editors. A journalism/media template could be made to apply in relevant talk pages, that could legitimately contain reference to WikiProjects and recruiting for them. TheGrappler 21:08, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Self-references

message: I like the template and find it useful, however, the use of the ampersands disturbes me. I'd rather suggest that the template items be placed in a more logical alphabetical order with some uniform character seperating the items.  I do think there's a kind of point of view lurking in there somewhere, the ampersands imply replationships and a point of viewabout those relationship, I'd rather aim for a better expression of neutality.  Thoughts?  Calicocat 08:13, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

message: I just changed editorial independence from a redirect (Freedom of the press) to a stub. This important concept deserves better coverage and should be included in  once it is more than an embarrassingly short stub. Rl 08:34, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Editorial independence 

message: It would be nice to include a section on journalism organizations -- if not just a link to a main overview of journalism organziations -- to incorporate the existence of the SPJ, Investigative Reporters & Editors, Poynter Institute, AAJA, and others to this template box.
A link maybe could go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Journalism_organizations Guroadrunner 02:55, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Would recommend adding "organizations" to the J box 

message: I've created a reorganization of this template here in my user namespace, mostly to distinguish fields, like fashion and business, from genres, like investigative and watchdog journalism, but also to avoid various redirects, redundancies, and one red link. I've tried to include links to the most general, well-developed articles, because those then tend to include links to articles on various more specific topics. I've also tried to tidy up the visual aspect of the text layout a bit. I realize an organizational overhaul of an article namespace template may be a bit too bold, so please comment here on this talk page or over on the temporary talk page if you have any suggestions or ideas so that I can evaluate whether or not my version is compatible with consensus. Thanks! -Tobogganoggin talk 20:31, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

message: *There is a redlink to List of journalism books in the template.  I don't feel like finding sources and creating an article for that list topic, and it looks uncouth to have a redlink substed onto lots of other articles.  If and when that topic gets its own article, we can put it back, even if it's a stub.  Curt Wilhelm VonSavage 17:24, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

message: This template is useful but really takes a lot of space. Can it be made to collapse?
I tried <|collapse=yes> with no result. Maybe some of you authorized template code people can do it. Thanks. Marcus334 (Talk) 16:32, 28 February 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I am no too familiar with  templates, but it is not inviting to do so (it produces a big ugly "[Show]" text in the caption). Folding a sidebar may be a bad idea, since the text must rearrange when clicking. Maybe  can help. btw, I also find it unnecessarily broad. -DePiep (talk) 17:03, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
