Yes. There will also be a need for a decent post-mortem. I think on enWN everyone with Editor/Admin should review the full Skypecast. It will shed light on areas where it is difficult for people to quickly get involved. I know the Newsroom could do with more makeover (I put in a header; quick, dirty, but need to push an "urgency"); and, at least one of the other links from the main page's masthead is dull-as-ditchwater offputting - coma-inducing material. The writing contest is already showing a nice number of signups, and I do intend to mention it. I really, really hope by time of recording there's some firm prize commitments to spice it up a bit. For that, I would really like to see frWN in GNews, and the competition. THEN I can ask Josh at GNews if they're interested, bilingual entrants can get a few extra points for doing in both languages, and - hopefully - google translate could get feedback on improving their translation engine. -- Brian McNeil <[email protected]>|http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Brian_McNeil Content of this message in no way represents the opinions or official position of the Wikimedia Foundation or any of its projects. * Problems replying?
