Forum:The Daily Edit

The new Daily Edit
I'm now coordinating The Daily Edit and have based it upon the Wikipedia Signpost. This will make it much easier to update. Another change is that it will be monthly and a delivery service is also available. I'm still working on the cross-wiki Daily Edit idea and that should be implemented as soon as possible. What we're really asking for is your suggestions. What do you want in The Daily Edit? Another thing is that we need writers. Please sign up to write for The Daily Edit in the newsroom. -- 21:27, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

P.S. We also need someone who is good at creating RSS feeds. It would be nice to be able to have the feeds in place as Wikipedia does. -- 22:04, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

P.P.S. Ok, scrap the RSS feed (I've already created one). -- 18:22, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

The old Daily Edit
Now there are more regular updates and features coming through, I want to make sure that I'm letting you all know about them. Rather than flood the forum, I think we should try the newsletter I prepared a while ago, "The Daily Edit". On the downside, it's another page to monitor, but I think it could be a useful one. What are your views? -- sannse (talk) 13:01, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
 * There seems to be some problems with using The Daily Edit on other wikis. What I think should be done is that the following text should be entered into other wikis:

To check for updates, you may need to [ click here to purge].


 * For an example of what this does, see w:c:nwn:Neverwinter:The Daily Edit. --lE☺N2323 19:48, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, the problems are the reason that this wasn't started earlier, but I thought it would be good to start now anyway, even if it's just on Central. See the help page for more on this.  The purge link is part of the instructions for setting up the page, or will be when those are replaced.  But even with the purge link, it's not updating reliably yet. -- sannse (talk) 11:29, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see the purge problem. The template on other wikis don't get updated even when you purge the page or even the Wikia Central page.  I think it's something to do with the shared template thing.  --lE☺N2323 19:36, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
