Personally, I'd love for users to be able to submit a link to a news story and have VGC contributors write it up themselves. Having just anyone and everyone write it up is too risky. I dont want to proof read all day.

there is nothing stopping you from re-writing the whole thing

I know. But I would have to read the whole article and judge whether I should re-write it all. =P

who said you had to read it first

If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

Yeah we can add a box for the source - might make it easier for people to remember to put one in.

I have an E46 M3 at the moment, it's an amazing machine...

That's the car I'm going after. :) I currently drive an E36 328i. You can't really beat it for the price ($6000!), but I'm looking for something a bit nicer. With the economy the way it is, I can get an E46 M3 with 60-70kish miles for about 17k.

OT: I like the idea of contributors writing the articles themselves. This site already has issues with certain other sites not taking it seriously; this just gives them more to complain about.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Guys, just a request. Don't auto-approve EVERYTHING you see, please. Check to see that it is free of typos, has no mistakes, and has a source.

Not after this....

I guess I will have to create another thread to clarify this, the purpose of the feature was helping the contributors to be aware of a news, not writing news for the contributors..
