ShortcutThis is a section of the newsroom for The Misplaced Pages Signpost. Below is a list of some Signpost stories in development.
Next issue (April 21)
Please keep discussion to appropriate areas. Add a note here if you are planning on writing a story.
The deadline for story completion is Monday, 17:00 UTC
The current time is Saturday, 07:00 UTC. Update
If you want to write a special story about something that happened and has been reported in the news, please write down the topic below as soon as possible, to avoid me duplicating effort in "In the news". enochlau (talk) 07:54, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

- Notice to all: Tutorial series needs more tutorials because we've run out! Thanks -- enochlau (talk) 23:41, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
- Maybe we could include User:The Placebo Effect/Signpost tutorial for this one. Soxred93 | talk bot 00:37, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- It doesn't look finished... enochlau (talk) 01:20, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- Naw it isn't. I know it can be fleshed out more, but i don't know how. Any help from others to meaten it up would be appreciated. The Placebo Effect (talk) 02:51, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- Suggestion: Run a short item (such as "Signpost Tutorials: Call for Authors"), letting editors know that there again is an opportunity to write a tutorial to be published in the Signpost. (After the first announcement, there was sufficient interest that editors were - I've misstating this a bit, I know - turned away, so another call for writers seems in order.) -- John Broughton (♫♫) 12:46, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

- User:OhanaUnited/Sister Projects Interview/Meta OhanaUnited 07:41, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
- It is kind of short, but that's pretty much all we can say about Meta.
- There's more to say about Meta. Let's hold this interview for a week. Ral315 (talk) 03:28, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
- What else should I add? OhanaUnited 04:34, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
- That's the $64,000 question :) I know that a Meta overhaul was attempted in late 2006 or 2007, moving MediaWiki pages from Meta to MediaWiki.org, and changing a few other things. I don't know what ever came of it, or whether the overhaul was ever fully completed. That would be a good thing to look into.
- Also, you could probably cover some of the process pages there -- things like Board and steward election coordination, requests for new languages, requests for closing projects, etc -- how they work, particularly. This could be done either via interview, or as a longer introduction to the interview. Ral315 (talk) 17:36, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
- I'm open to more questions. :-) Greeves 20:52, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
- Going to push it one more week because I have 4 exams in 5-day span last week. OhanaUnited 06:10, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

- For next week, what do people think about interviews with some people from some not so populated sections of Misplaced Pages (such as WP:RM, WP:AFC, etc.)? Soxred93 | talk bot 04:27, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
