Forum:CT Archive/We have a blog here, don't we?

Following the proposal made by Trip in Forum:SH Archive/We need a blog, Trip, Dunc, and I went ahead and established a blog at wookieepedia.wordpress.com. Titled "Wookieepedia Newsnet," it wasn't brought into active use until the last couple of weeks, in which I've published samples of the sort of content I'd be adding to it. There've been updates for CTs and the Mofference, a story on off-site publicity, a run-down of articles featured in January and attributed to the users who nominated them, and even interviews with the February Wookieepedian of the Month and newest administrator. The idea is that, for now, I'd be overseeing and maintaining the blog, enlisting the help of Trip and Dunc as well as any Wookieepedians who volunteer their assistance. As time went on and the thing grew, I'd likely bring in other full-time editors. Basically put, a somewhat drier version of the Wookiee-cast on paper. Also further down the road, assuming the blog continues to enjoy the success it's already seen with a limited audience of IRC users and other internet contacts, I think giving the blog a prominent link on the site would be a benefit.

So, following my comments on the forum, I've gone ahead and established the blog, even getting it a highlight on Club Jade, and now I'm here to ask Wookieepedia's approval of it, a la the Official Friends process, basically.

In favor of solidifying the blog's affiliation

Comments and feedback

 * If anyone has any comments or ideas at all, I'd love to hear them. Even if this doesn't pass somehow, I plan on maintaining the blog as a somewhat more unofficial chronicle of the website, so everyone's input is welcome. Well, except for changing the name or URL; that would be a pain in the rear. :P Graestan ( Talk ) 04:36, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
