Talk:Google News

message: One big problem I find with trying to use GN for research is that there is an approx. 3-month gap between the available archives and the current (30-day) news service. Therefore on 1 May 2009 you can find articles from the beginning of time till the end of December 2008, and from April 2009, but not from the three months in between. Google says this is because of the processing of data from News to Archives, which may be so, but does make their service almost useless for researching how news stories have developed. 82.46.180.160 (talk) 04:37, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

message: I've figured out the syntax for subscribing to the GoogleNews feeds for any particular news source: [info]
or for all the sources from one country or state: [scroll down to Sunday for brandnew examples]
I'd like some help making these feeds easily accessible, and collectively doing a Wikipedia page sounds best to me.  It would be called "Google News feeds by country" and for each country or state it would offer a link to the 'location' feed for that country [eg: Iraq] followed by the individual feeds for each source in that country. --robotwisdom 11:47, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

message: :Image:Google news logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

message: Is someone messing with this page?  A 2002 launch is simply not possible - Google News (or at least a news aggregation service offered by Google at http://www.google.com/news) existed by mid-2001 at least.  On 9/11/2001, "Google News" even crashed.   What gives?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.12.132.33 (talk) 18:43, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  the age of google news cannot be correct 

message: Starting about 2 months ago, I would do a search on Google News for something I was pretty sure would have been in the news and produced hits, and get no hits (i.e. 0 search results).
This happened several times, but I didn't think much of it 'till I did a search for something that I was absolutely sure had been in the news, and I was absolutely sure had been in many news articles indexed by google news resulting in a large number of search results, and yet found that I now got 0 news search results.  Apologies for the self-reference, but this is the search about which I'm certain, and have corroborating archives.  A normal google news search for my name produces 0 hits today  even though I appeared in AP articles and several other articles and TV news summaries.  I finally figured out the data is still there; the UI is broken.  this shows the articles, but is hidden.
I'm updating the article to reflect this change by removing un-cited claims that suggest it provides a long term search-able archive. --Elvey (talk) 20:09, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

message: To me is appears odd that this service isn't available in Danish and Finnish as it appears to be available in all other major European languages, including Norwegian which is spoken by fewer people than both the languages mentioned.

message: Does Ukranian have to be added to the list. Ukraine has two versions. I'm guessing they are Russian and Ukranian. I think that would take the total number up to 25.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.118.185.112 (talk) 14:51, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

message: The article reports on the split of the Sci/Tech section after explaining that there are various language versions of Google News. As this would imply that the section split was performed on all language versions (which is not the case), I edited the respective text. However, I do not know whether the section split was ever performed on any non-English Google News version (as was announced in the cited source), or if it wasn't, why not. If anyone has any information on this, please extend the article accordingly. 129.69.215.18 (talk) 09:22, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
