Hi, please let us know how we can improve News further.

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can vote and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can vote on it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  • Top ideas

  1. Stop asking for a sign in when I'm already signed in - Yahoo is ******** - ********!

    How can Yahoo simultaneously have me signed in at the top of the page AND ask me "please sign in to rate" about 2 inches below the heading that says 'Hi R' and offers "sign out" as one of my options. I have come to the conclusion that Yahoo much have a technical support group that was homeless last week and got three hours of training and were then set loose to work on the system. There is no other explanation that makes sense.

    • Have Austrailian news consist of more than sports!

      A subheading of world news is Australian news. However there is rarely any actual news on it, it's all sports. I'm sure someone cares about the Australian cricket scores, but to have 18 out of 19 "news" articles be Australian cricket sports reporting is ridiculous.

      • Too many banned words in comments to news articles. Can't post the word "******" or "moron" or even the word "crook" is now banned.

        This is getting ridiculous, omg, the word "crook" is now a banned word, unreal. Goodbye stupid idiots!

            • I can't comment on news anymore. All I can do is verify my password, over and over.

              It's sad and makes me feel censored :(

              Which is strange because many of the other posters seem to be nonsensical racist haters, is this really truly a technical issue?

              Will it ever be resolved?

                    • Random id's, posts ignored

                      This week, you yahoos, when I try to post a comment, make me log on every time, then ignore my logon and discard my post; or give me random if from some other user unknown to me.

                      I can tell all of your competent developers have been fired or quit. There is a fix for that: STOP LETTING YOUR INCOMPETENT DEVELOPERS RELEASE UNTESTED **** SOFTWARE; HIRE PEOPLE WHO SOME IDEA HOW TO WRITE AND TEST COMMERCIAL GRADE SOFTWARE; FIRE THE JO'S WHO ALLOW THIS **** TO HAPPEN.

                        • When clicking on a news story from the main page using explorer 9 and windows 7 I can't get back to the main Yahoo home page?

                          This is a bug with your site. You should always be able to go back to the original page. Another bug is when you look at images, you have to click back through all the images to get back to the page where you clicked the link

                              I like to view the political cartoons and as of late I've seen Mike Lester featured at the top of page. When I click on the thumbnail it links to a page that doesn't exist, bringing me back to the comics section.
