This is a list of text-searchable, free to access (no-pay, non-subscription/-membership/-login) online English newspaper sources. As a rule, entries on this list access many thousands or millions of newspaper pages; they are intended to provide a significant resource to aid in building Wikipedia articles, in which [[WP:CITE|citations]] to [[WP:IRS|reliable sources]] is the lifeblood of proper content and at the core of all of Wikipedia’s content policies and guidelines, such as [[WP:N|notability]], [[WP:V|verifiability]], [[WP:NPOV|neutral point of view]], and [[WP:NOR|no original research]]. Websites that provide only limited free material, thus cutting off the bulk of a much larger database, such as ”[[The New York Times]]”, are not included. |
