Assess : newly added and existing articles, maybe nominate some good B-class articles for GA; independently assess some as A-class, regardless of GA status.
Cleanup : * Sport governing body (this should-be-major article is in a shameful state) * Field hockey (History section needs sources and accurate information - very vague at the moment.) * Standardize Category:American college sports infobox templates to use same font size and spacing. * Sport in the United Kingdom - the Popularity section is incorrect and unsourced. Reliable data is required.
* Fix project template and/or "to do list" Current version causes tables of content to be hidden unless/until reader chooses "show."
Portal:Current events is a reader-facing page intended for viewing by non-editors. Please prioritize their needs when adjusting its design, and move editor-facing elements to other pages.
At 3:30 AM local time (CET), pyrotechnics caused a fire during a DNK concert at the "Pulse" disco club in the town of Kočani. While the exact number of deaths and injuries has yet to be fully determined, there were more than 50 reported casualties and hundreds hospitalized.

@StrawWord298944: Another editor has fixed this. In future, you should be able to edit each day's news yourself - although the page itself is protected from editing, each day's news has an "Edit" link at the top right of its box. -- John of Reading (talk) 06:01, 8 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Why does the word hotel need a hyperlink on April 18th's news story: "Eight people are injured in a fire at the King Solomon Hotel in Tiberias, Israel."?
