Welcome to WPN - World Press Network http://www.worldpressnetwork.net

The World Press Network, WPN (http://worldpressnetwork.net), is interested in giving your organization a forum to express and explain its aims and concerns to the rest of the world. Ignorance is a major problem that keeps people from getting involved or even taking notice to the work that you do and the causes that you do it for. WPN provides a wiki site that will provide information in a variety of formats that you can personally contribute in any medium, whether it be audio, video, photographs, or text.

WPN is also collating a central historical archive of the Middle East covering every town, village, and neighbourhood which ever existed.


Do you have digitised (non-copyrighted) material on the Middle East [including video or audio recordings of the diaspora's "Oral History"] ?

If you have digitised (non-copyrighted) material on the Middle East (including video or audio recordings of the diaspora's "Oral History"), please contact the editors at WPN : editorial@worldpressnetwork.net

Internet users throughout the world could then freely access all collated audio recordings, videos, and articles.

Material can also be contributed by journalists, political analysts, and people from the diaspora to document their history. This would allow a researcher to look for any location, and then see a list of audio/visual material linked to that location.

There is an unlimited amount of storage space for the archive. This storage space is provided at no cost to contributors.

To create a new page for a new topic, just enter it in the URL line (without spaces), e.g.

       http://worldpressnetwork.net/index.php/your_topic

Then click "Edit"

Once you have created or edited pages, you can request them to be "fully protected" so as not to be alterable by others without the moderator's approval. This could act as an extra level protection for your personal profile page.

To contact Editorial, including to report abuse of any kind, e-mail editorial@worldpressnetwork.net

Note : For file uploads (e.g. videos, audio recordings, images/photos, documents [.doc / .pdf etc], PowerPoint presentations, Excel spreadsheet files, compressed .zip files etc.), please first e-mail editorial@worldpressnetwork.net requesting a free FTP account on WPN. This will allow you effectively an unlimited amount of space to upload everything you wish. You can then refer to the uploaded items in the Wiki pages by including the URL links to the files on disk. This will allow you to document items using full audio/visual techniques.
