Template:News item header

Usage
Create a news item container. This container acts as an hAtom microformat feed entry, and is understood by search engines as a news item when properly filled out.

Parameters:
 * title: Title of the news article. This should be in newspaper headline format.
 * author: Your user account name. If you have created a User page, it will be automatically linked. This is used to create a vcard.
 * etal: If provided, additional authors can be credited. List the author's names as the parameter value.
 * timestamp: Date and/or time of the article's authorship, in any acceptable ISO date format. The input timestamp will be normalized to Day Month Year format regardless of the input format. Invalid timestamps will be suppressed from appearing in the hAtom, and an error message may appear on page.
 * pic: A picture to display as a right-floating element in the news article. If specified, w and h should also be specified to set the image size.
 * w: width of image thumbnail
 * h: height of image thumbnail

Author your article content inline using regular MediaWiki markup after the undefined transclusion, and follow it with News item end to properly close the entry.
