Newspapers.com account application
Hi BridgingHistory,

Unfortunately I can't approve you for a Newspapers.com account through the Wikipedia Library. As the Requirements section at Newspapers.com says, these accounts are intended for Wikipedia editors who are "active in content generation, research, and/or verification work". That's why we require that people have already been editing for a year and have contributed 1000 edits to Wikipedia in order to be eligible for an account. All the best, HazelAB (talk) 13:08, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
