[Wikipedia-l] New community newspaper on en:

Mon Jan 10 09:07:00 UTC 2005

(With my apologies for cross-posting to different mailing lists. I wrote 
a separate message to wikien-l, so some of you will have already read 
about this, but I thought it would be good to mention this to some of 
the non-English Wikipedians who don't subscribe there.)

As the English Wikipedia has gotten so big that even the most active and 
experienced users can't really follow all of the major events there, 
I've started a newspaper to try and collect that information for people. 
You can find it here:

Obviously, anyone is welcome to read it, but it's intended to be mostly 
for and about the English Wikipedia. Collectively (and in some cases, 
individually), all the other languages could undoubtedly have a similar 
newspaper, but I don't speak all those languages, and I'm only one 
person. Anyway, I think this is the sort of thing that we develop 
according to need, so whenever any individual project thinks it needs 
this, feel free to use and adapt this idea.
