Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Navigation This is the Signpost central hub. To learn more about the Signpost, see our about page. To subscribe, see our subscriptions. To suggest coverage, see suggestions. For general feedback, see our talk page. Submission deadline: !  Publication scheduled for late Wednesday, Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Issue/Next, 2015. Once all tasks are complete, editor(s)-in-chief Gamaliel or Go Phightins! will complete the publication process. Weekly schedule Our current standard weekly schedule: Thursday–Sunday: start. Start all pages that are to be included in the next edition, either on-wiki or in Google Docs. Monday: draft. A rough outline of topics to be covered should be in place by the middle of Monday, so that if a regular reporter is unavailable, the editor can find a replacement for that week. Tuesday, early Wednesday: mature versions. Aim to have reasonably mature drafts of all pages for comments by the managing editors, fellow journalists, and other interested editors. Wednesday: finish! Last-minute tweaks and copy-editors go through the drafts; publication in the evening. Current discussion Ideas for Signpost features can be pitched and discussed by any interested parties here. Items should be listed directly at the opinion desk or the special desk, submissions from which are automatically transcluded here.

Note from editor(s)-in-chief Help for new contributors can be found in our recently updated style guide: Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Newsroom/Style. Gamaliel (talk) 13:13, 30 August 2015 (UTC) I'm taking a temporary leave of absence from the position of Editor-in-Chief, effective immediately. I will still participate in the Signpost as a writer and copyeditor, but will have no role in election coverage. Editorial decisions, including those regarding election coverage, will be made by Go Phightins! and the Editorial Board. Gamaliel (talk) 01:53, 16 November 2015 (UTC) Wishing you the best of luck in the election! Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 07:58, 16 November 2015 (UTC) Just to expound, I will be taking the reins temporarily as an interim sole editor-in-chief. I continue to appreciate all the help you can offer, as my time is limited, to an extent, as well. I plan to continue with our recent pattern of weekend publication, so if articles for the next issue could be done by next Friday, that would be terrific. We continue to seek people to fill positions announced in our reorganization announcement a few weeks ago, and now could be a great time to give it a shot. There is no obligation to continue, and we all acknowledge real life time constraints. With that, as always please pitch new article ideas, and let's continue ahead as Wikipedia's news"paper". Thanks!
