Hi all, thanks for the helpful links and comments.
Regarding translation, it has been broken on that page for several months
now, Anna. I don't have enough familiarity with those tempermental
translation tags to figure it out, but any community expertise would be
very welcome :)

With the holidays here in the US, Nichole was eager to get the newsletter
out before most of us went on vacation. I apologize for the break in
departure and any confusion that came from it.
In general, most of us on my team will be pretty quiet until January 3. I
know that Nichole started a conversation about the future direction of the
newsletter separately, and we still welcome input there. Anna is right to
note that it's happening on list and not on wiki, which perhaps was an
oversight. If anyone wants to migrate or start a discussion on wiki, please
do! (And ping us!) Otherwise we can resume in the new year.
In the meantime, please enjoy the updates from Israel, Greece, Norway,
Macedonia, Germany and Basque Country. It's a great way to end the year,
and I'm excited to see what 2017 has in store for us :)

Happy holidays to those who celebrate, and happy new year!

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

Hello!
I am happy to announce the release of the Wikipedia Education Program's
December Newsletter. There are some great stories in this issue!
If there is anyone in the community who has the "MassMessage sender"
user right I would kindly ask your help this month to send the newsletter
out via that channel.
My best to you all as we finish out 2016!
Nichole
