Anna I am happy that you brought this up: I was
eagerly expecting a
notification on my talk page (actually I remember there used to be
cross-posting so that an educator could not miss the invitation to write!)
and I had exciting news to share... and I am also a member of the Education
mailing list and I do not recall any mention of the newsletter. That
probably explains what there were only four stories... (how were the other
educators alerted BTW?) As for the new proposed format of the newsletter, I
have expressed my opinion in the other thread.
Happy Holidays to all:-)

Dear Nichole,
Thank you for sharing the newsletter. In the past, the newsletter team,
which Sailesh linked to, has been contacted about helping to produce it. It
seems that you have produced it entirely on your own. Why this depature
from previous practice without discussion? I had no talk page notifications
nor any emails. Was this issue of newsletter copyedited prior to
publication? It doesn't look like it, based on the the page history. Also,
there are translation estension breaks all over the news page:
https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education/News and there is a
redlink on the homepage:
https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education
The community is happy to help publish the newsletter, if you include us.
Sincerely,
Anna Koval
