Hi, About some 8 months ago I started with an attempt to bring news with a newsletter "Wikizine". I try to bring different types of news like "Foundation", "Community", "Media" , "Technical news" and so. So I try to bring the news for the Wikimedia family to the projects. And that includes Wikibooks. I most say I have no idea of there are already Wikibook people reading Wikizine, I hope so. If not I hope to welcome now some soon. But I am writing this fist of all to ask for your cooperation with this newsletter. To be able to report news first the news must be known. "Bulletin board" is one of the pages I look for to find news about Wikibooks. I can not say I have discoverd there anything worth reporting yet. Maybe I am looking at the wrong page. But you can sure that if there is something going on in the other Wikibooks language editions I will not find out about it. So I request that if there is news about your project, especially for the non-English editions, that you would report the news to me, to Wikizine. Let the readers of Wikizine know there is more then Wikipedia. A way to make it more likely that someone will think about Wikizine is to put a banner on your userpage or even better on a public page, also for the non-English Wikinews versions.; http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikizine/banners On the other side I try to get the news downhill to as most of the projects and especially languages as possible. Because of piratical reasons Wikizine can only be in English. But it would be fantastic if people would be willing to translate the news and share it with there community. A total translation of Wikizine is great but also a lot of work. Maybe only translating the most relevant news can be enough for starting. You could work together across the different projects in the same languages. By cross-project cooperation the work of translation can be shared. Just only subscribing to Wikizine only is also useful of course. Then you at least are informed. Reading Wikizine can by email. Just click here below and follow the instructions; mailto:request@wikizine.org?subject=subscribe Or you can also read Wikizine from the website; http://www.wikizine.org Thank you for reading this and I hope to receive some news from Wikibooks! Greetings, Walter http://www.wikizine.org
