Going by article following day, papers ignored brawl (6)
I believe the answer is:
affray
'ignored brawl' is the definition.
'affray' can be an answer for 'brawl' (I've seen this in another clue). I am not certain of the 'ignored' bit.
'going by article following day papers' is the wordplay.
'going by' says to put letters next to each other.
'article' becomes 'a' (the indefinite article in English).
'following' becomes 'ff' (abbreviation used in citations).
'day papers' becomes 'ray' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'a' put next to 'ff' is 'aff'.
'aff'+'ray'='AFFRAY'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for affray that I've seen before include "Brawling" , "A fight or riot in public" , "Noisy disturbance" , "Disturbance of the peace" , "Breach of the peace by public rioting" .)
