Communicating with editors

Important to get feedback from the first "run". Equally important that the first one is as good as we can make it.

Why?

1. To improve sense of community
2. To get involvement in the project as a whole
3. To recruit "staff"
4. To get feedback
5. To continually improve Wikibooks

How?

1. By bot?
2. From "the staff"

When?

1. On a regular basis?
2. Sign up to process?

What?

Wikibooks Gazette

Welcome to the first edition of the Wikibooks Gazette

This is a short newsletter that is being distributed to all active wikibookians. You are getting this message because you are an established contributor to the project. This newsletter will be distributed on a regular basis, to help share news, information, and tips. It comes from a bot account, User:The Staff. User:The Staff is currently operated by a team of wikibooks admins, the complete list of which is available on the user page of the bot. If you would like to not receive this newletter anymore, please leave a message indicating that at User talk:The Staff.

The work you do at Wikibooks is greatly appreciated. However there are plenty of other opportunities for you to get involved and help us to create a thriving Wikibooks community. We are sure that there are things we can do to help you and your understanding of Wikibooks and similarly there are certainly things you could do to help Wikibooks become a better place.

We would like to ask all wikibookians to add the Bulletin Board to your watchlists. The Bulletin Board is a fast and easy way for wikibookians to communicate important news and events to the entire community. If you have important news to share with the community, you can feel free to add your own entry to that page.

If you have general questions of comments about wikibooks, you are welcome to post a message on The Staff Lounge, a free discussion area. Your input would also be welcomed in the Votes for Deletion and Requests for Adminship discussion pages.

Sometimes it is easy to forget that the Wikibooks community is much larger and more diverse then the people who work in a single book, or on a single bookshelf. Hopefully, together we can all make Wikibooks a better place, and a more valuable educational resource. --User:The Staff
