I've been told at one point in time, we had a regularly scheduled newsletter
of the important goings on at Wikinews. I can't find it in the list
archives, but no matter. I figured it was about time to start/resurrect
it. After all, we do important things around here and if you aren't on the
Wiki 24/7, you might miss something. So here are the important highlights
from last month:
- September 12th we had a banner day with 20 published articles in one
day. [[Category:September 12, 2009]] -
