I'm going to get straight to the point. We've been through this before and I don't want anyone to get what I was trying to do with news articles before mixed up with what I'm definitely doing now.
The point of Mortal Realm news articles being established is so that there can be a way of keeping up with important things that happen in the Mortal Realm. This RPG has always been fixated on the Celestials, and regard for Humans and Human characters are at an all time low. Despite the fact that Humans are integral to the structure of the RPG, and the fact that everyone posts in the Nigenkai often, that is because the Nigenkai is often considered a neutral grounds as compared with the other worlds of the RPG.
That being said, sometimes this cannot be helped. As such, new articles can be submitted to explain an important thread from the views of the Humans that are present or happen to become caught up in certain events.
Anyone is allowed to submit a Newspaper article, however, they have to be approved first. Send a copy of it to me and wait for my approval before posting it.
They will be posted in the Plot Information board. There is a board there specifically for news article posts. Also, I will activate the News Fader to display the title of the article for the forums.

Guildelines for the articles:
--Each article must be written about an even that could be accessible to a Human, otherwise, how would they be there to account for the details?
--These articles are coming from an outsider point of view; there should no details about the characters involved or how they think or why they were committing an action.
--They should not be too long. An article should not be a replacement for a narrative.
--You can use NPCs for authors and interview subjects so longs as names are given. You HAVE to have the name for the author...
--ONLY Human character with NPC posts on the boards can recognize magic enough to attempt to explain it in these articles--you must also link at the END of the article to the thread that gives the Human the credibility to speak on magic existing, or specific magical information.
--Any posts made without my approval in the news articles board will be deleted without warning.
