Eddie891's RfA

Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Eddie891 is still not linked on Wikipedia:Administrators' newsletter/2020/9 yet. A link to that RfA should be added as soon as possible. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 22:37, 22 August 2020 (UTC)

Done But also, anyone can (and should) edit the newsletter. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 10:15, 31 August 2020 (UTC)

Adding "Next issue" link to the newsletter

Dear Wikipedians,

I think it is a great idea to add a simple, unobtrusive, "Next issue" link at the bottom of the newsletter so subscribers and the Community at large can have quick access to the most recent and developing news in the Admin world. Note that the current edition covers news for last month only, and yet the next issue is already being filled-in with current news and important information. Finally, having a next issue tie-in is common practice in virtually all monthly subscription magazines.

What does the Community think about this idea?

(you can see how it would look like here)

Please remember that this is about openness and easy access to vital information that benefits all the readers.

That's all folks, I spoke my peace, now you decide.

What happened to October?

I never received the October issue by email. And looking at it, that issue seems to be exactly the same as the Sept newsletter. — Maile (talk) 02:11, 30 October 2020 (UTC)

There was an issue when I sent out the last issue, apparently I used the wrong title! But it looks like you correctly received the September and October issues. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 10:54, 30 October 2020 (UTC)

Ah, so all is well then. Thanks. — Maile (talk) 12:14, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
