The Shoals News is a weekly newspaper printed every Tuesday in Shoals, Martin County in the U.S. state of Indiana. Albert Hacker founded the paper in 1888 as the Weekly Democrat. Sanford Deckard had taken over the paper in 1945 with the idea of creating his own paper. After his death, his son, Stephen Deckard, became the publisher and editor of The Shoals News today. The paper covers your local news, events in the area, obituaries, and weather. It is a charter member of the HSPA for contributing in the advertising programs. It was one of the first in Southern Indiana to begin offset printing in the late 1960s.== History =="Note: The "history" section is usually the easiest to add. If your article will have more than 3-4 paragraphs, it's best to create at least one section, and "history" is often the best choice. This section should include information about owners and publishers. Ideally, it will mention all owners, but your source materials might have gaps. That's OK, as long as you can establish several of the owners." == Current status =="Note: There's probably a better section heading for this. Often, for the kind of shorter article we're working on in NOW, it's information that will just go in the lead section, or at the end of "history." This is a good place to put:" == Significant achievements =="Note: If the paper has been recognized by other papers, academic journals, book authors, or other newspapers for its coverage of certain topics or scoops, these should be included. This should only be a separate section if there are 3 or more such items. It will often make sense to combine these items into the "Awards and recognition" section, rather than creating a separate section." == Anecdotes == "Note: In this case, "anecdotes" is not a good section title -- but they can be good to include, either in the lead section or in "history." Did the paper's editor get killed in a duel with the editor of a competing paper? Was a reporter fired for an undisclosed conflict of interest? Was the newspaper's office building burned to a ground, destroying the only known archives of its first decade? Stuff like this is great to include. Generally, it should not be the entire basis of notability; but it can add nice color to an article that is otherwise a bit dry. See WP:UNDUE for a sense of how much detail is approporiate to add to Wikipedia." == See also ==* (optional)*  List of*  Links to*  Other relevant Wikipedia articles== References ==== Further reading =="Note: This section is not usually necessary. But it can be useful if, for instance, you've found a good reference source for the paper, but haven't been able to get the book from the library, or haven't had time to pore through it enough to find specific points to use as footnotes." == External links ==* metrobulletin.com"(Typically, this section will contain a newspaper's website. Do not include multiple links to the paper's own properties, though (e.g., web site, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram). If they don't link those prominently on their own web site, it's not our job to correct that oversight. For a newspaper, there are rarely other relevant "external links," but WP:EL will give you a bit more context of what can go in this section." Category:Metropolis County, North NebraskaCategory:Newspapers of North Nebraska"Note: Every Wikipedia article should have at least two categories. For newspapers, the two listed above are typically the easy ones to add; you want to add categories that already exist. You should be able to find one for the city or county, and another for newspapers published in the state, though the exact names might vary a bit. Try looking at articles on other newspapers in the area, to see what categories they use.If adding categories to a draft article, use a colon after the opening brackets, as above. This will "disable" the categories prior to publication. Once the article is published (moved out of "draft" status), the leading colon can be removed, activating the category link."
 * Current editor or news director* Current publisher*  Current owner*  Current location of headquarters*  Circulation (paid circulation if appropriate)*  Publication schedule (daily, weekly, twice weekly etc)*  Recent annual revenue (and, perhaps, information about its sources of revenue: print/online advertising, subscriptions...)== Awards and recognition =="Note: If the paper has won three or more awards at the statewide or national level, a separate section might be appropriate. Be sure the awards you include are actually significant; a strong indicator is that they are mentioned in sources independent of both the paper itself and the awarding entity."
