Does this list of newspapers only count daily newspapers, and not Sunday editions? Because Western Australia's daily and Sunday newspapers are independent of one another. It's not just a Sunday edition of the same newspaper. - Mark 01:28, 5 Jan 2004 (UTC)
It would be interesting to add which are issued 7 days/wk, and, if 6/wk, on which day not.-- Patrick 08:25, 21 Mar 2004 (UTC)
I found this page after adding some missing mastheads from List of newspapers in Australia (which is still not complete - missing more weekly mastheads), but I'd imagine this page would get (more) unwieldly if they were added here. ChrisM 05:45, 27 Mar 2004 (UTC)
Since the US papers section on this page only lists the top 20 by circulation, and since they're already ranked, wouldn't it make more sense to put them in ranked order? Seems more useful than alphabetical in this instance. If no one objects soon I'm going to go ahead and do it. - R. fiend 15:47, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)
I'm intending to include the URL (external) link for newspapers in this article, and to indicate whether the organisations in question operate a pay-per-view or pay subscription policy for access to their news archives. I'm not sure this article is the right place to do it, though. I'd rather have a list of media sources, which would include organisations other than newspapers that also provide news archives, e.g. BBC. Any thoughts on this are welcome. For further discussion of my machinations, see Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)#Links_to_sources_that_charge_for_information
Including URL's is a good idea but it must let the user know before hand what to expect (pay per view/click site). In order to be fair to third world countries/ non fully commercialised newspapers, as the majority of their sites are not being exploited to the extent western country newspapers are. The public's right to know is paramount and newspapers do this well.
On the other hand giving URL links to "media sources" opens up a can of worms - literally. There's far too many frauds out there, sites that are listing newspapers, newspaper directories and utilising the traffic to generate profit from Google ads.
If you are going to list newspapers they must be separated from "media sources". The reality is that a lot of them are not familiar with or knowledgeable on legal regulations: plagiarism, crediting sources, copyrights and trademark laws.
There needs to be a clear distinction between the two.
Good Luck

This is a great directory of newspapers, but it provides too much detail. As it stands, it links to lists of newspapers in specific countries (like List of newspapers in Canada) but then also goes on to list many of the newspapers included in those sub-articles. The result? If you want to add a newspaper, you have to add it to two separate lists: this one, and the one for the specific country.
My suggestion is to make this page contain only links to directories for specific countries (and not include links to articles on specific newspapers). Thoughts? User:Huwmanbeing 04:06, 12 February 2006 (EST)

I think the article is simply a list of newspapers around the world, and there is really no need to put "Republic of China" behind Taiwan since most of the world recognize Taiwan as "Taiwan" already. It will actually eliminate the confusion of two "Chinas". Secondly, the world adopts the One China Policy of PRC as the only legitimate China of the world, it would be politically incorrect to put ROC up there since the UN Resolution 2758 has already replaced ROC's legal representation with PRC. And finally, neither ROC's constitution nor international laws state that the ROC possesses the sovereignty of Taiwan. It is much better we just leave "Taiwan" the way it is, that way, you do not upset the Chinese for creating another China and the Taiwanese for imposing a foreign trustee government as the owner of their territorial sovereignty. Since the article did not put "Republic of Korea" for S. Korea and "Democratic People's Republic of Korea" for N. Korea... why ROC for Taiwan? It's unecessary. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mafia godfather ( talk • contribs) 23:47, 19 January 2007 (UTC).
A discussion has been started at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Countries/Lists of countries which could affect the inclusion criteria and title of this and other lists of countries. Editors are invited to participate. Pfainuk talk 13:42, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
Shouldnt this article be called Lists of newspapers? plural for list? see list of books for its redirect. if i dont get any response saying why it should stay as is, i will probably change it in the next few months or weeks. Mercurywoodrose ( talk) 06:44, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
Shouldn't this template be in the template namespace and also be called Lists of newspaper publishers? [1] -- Zondor ( talk) 23:36, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
I thought this category was about a long list of newspapers. Apparently it's now about German newspapers. Also someone was kind enough to put information about Cannes and a new Johnny Depp movie at the bottom. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikidolmetscher ( talk • contribs) 14:43, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
kindly add into template and this article List of Sindhi-language newspapers Jogi 007 ( talk) 03:47, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
I added a link to the "Lists of newspapers in Country (United States, India)" to the North America and Asia sections of this page. This makes it easy to navigate up from country to the rest of the world.
I am trying to revive the Wikipedia:WikiProject Newspapers, so that it is more useful.
