Write and simplify

Do add material to Tech News! Any additions are always very welcome.

Add information, even if you are not sure it's vital or important. It is better to remove something later than to miss information that should have been included.

Keep in mind while editing:

  • Use simple, non-technical language;
  • Use short, common words and the active voice for verbs;
  • Use <abbr> for abbreviations and acronyms;
  • Keep entries short (ideally no longer than two short sentences);
  • Link to details, ideally translatable content on a wiki, with the most important link first
  • Use ([[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert]]) for items that are in most issues of the newsletter (new MediaWiki version, some meetings) and ([[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|class=skin-invert]]) for advanced items aimed at technical editors.
Monitor changes

Check the following sources of information. Choose those you understand and are comfortable with: if you understand code, you can look at the commits, for example, while summarizing mailing list discussions may be more appropriate for someone who doesn't code:


مالومات ټاکل

From those sources, select what you think is relevant:

  • for Wikimedians without specialized technical knowledge, who may otherwise not learn about technical changes that may affect them;
  • for people who relay these news to their fellow editors, like village pumps or noticeboards.

Add material to the next summary.

Any contribution is useful, even just adding a link. Other contributors can help write or simplify a longer description later.
