I think my introduction says something about being one of the more confusing
bits of midgard :)

I should add a note saying - ignore this if you are using the news style...

this should go in the style element <[news]>
you should then put <[news]> into the body of the page (and make sure it's
style is using the news style)

You may have to go in as system admin and change master news to a shared style
(its on the details tab) - the patch I just posted for repligard should solve
this in future versions.
did you set the number of articles to display -
and create a new style based on master news.. (need to do the bit above first
probably)

I'll have another look at the documentation there - I think one of the
problems is that it was written for the previous version and repligard did not
export parameters...

Probably just put NADMIN at the start of the subject.... the listserver does
replacements on [xxx] usually....
