-==== How to create news ====
-  * write a short editorial text
-  * link it to a project or context
+ ^ News creation action ^ What id does ^ What it matters ^
-  * define visibility
+| **Upload news image** | Upload a cover image in the Upload News Image area. The UI explicitly accepts JPG, PNG, GIF files up to 10 MB. |A strong image makes the news item more recognizable in the News list and gives the announcement more visual impact.|
-  * submit for publication
+| **Enter news title** | Fill in the Enter news title* field with the public headline of the announcement. This is the main title users will see in the News section. |The title is the first element readers scan to decide whether the update is relevant to them.|
+| **Select news type** | Choose a value in Select news type* from the dropdown. This classifies the announcement by category. |A clear type helps users understand the nature of the communication immediately and supports structured browsing.|
+| **Write the news content** | Use the Content* field inside News Details to write the main body of the announcement. This is where the editor explains the update, notice, release, or communication. |The content gives the real meaning of the news item and tells the community what happened and why it matters.|
+| **Format the content** | Use the rich-text toolbar shown above the content area to format the text. The visible controls include text style, font, bold, italic, underline, lists, alignment, links, and other editor actions.|Good formatting improves readability and helps the most important information stand out, especially in longer announcements|
+| **Review or manage news authors** |Use the News Authors area to confirm the author attribution. The screenshot shows the author as a removable chip, which indicates that authors can be managed directly in this field.|Clear authorship improves accountability and helps readers understand who is responsible for the communication.|
+| **Add tags** |Enter keywords in the Tags field to categorize the news item. These are used to label the announcement with relevant themes.|Tags improve searchability and help users discover related communications across the platform.|
+| **Link Project Pages** | Use the "Project Pages" dropdown to associate the news item with a relevant project or institutional page. | Keeps the announcement connected to its broader research or organisational context and helps users navigate related content. |
+| **Cancel the creation** | Click "Cancel" to leave the form without creating the news item. | Gives the editor a safe way to stop the workflow when the announcement is not ready to publish. |
+| **Create the news item** | Click "Create News" to submit the form and create the announcement in the platform workflow. | This is the final action that turns the draft communication into a structured news item for the community. |
