Wikipedia:News sources
The purpose of this page is to provide a list of links that can be used to researchcurrent eventsandnews stories.It provides links to reliable sources for Wikipedia articles by way of connections to websites in various parts of the world. The page is structured in a hierarchical manner so that areas that have a disproportionate number of news providers don't get a disproportionate amount of space. It also allows us to see which areas are lacking in news sites.
Note thatWikinews,a sister project of Wikipedia, offers a wiki-style news service.

Notes on Categories
editKashmir is categorised with "rest of Asia". Australia and New Zealand are categorised in Oceania and hence in Americas and Oceania. Russia is categorised in Europe. The Middle East is categorised with "rest of Asia".
None of these categorizations are meant to be political statements. Where choices would otherwise be somewhat arbitrary, countries are placed to keep the hierarchical structure balanced according to population.
