Drafting a post [edit]
YOU! Yes... you reading this page, may draft a post. Anyone can draft a post suggestion. So go ahead, give it a try! :)
Please be mindful of the posting guidelines, and remember to link pictures from Commons where possible.
Once a post is selected, the blog team will convert the wikicode into blog HTML.
Comment moderation [edit]
Currently, all comments are held for moderation to prevent spam. Comments must (a) be on-topic (b) be civil in tone (c) contain no personal attacks. Most comments get approved very quickly.
Translations [edit]
We welcome translations of articles for the blog and we often mark articles for translation and send out notifications to volunteer translators. If you prefer to do a first draft in a language other than English, please feel encouraged to do so, but please also include your best translation in English. We can always improve the English translation, but it is helpful to have it as a starting point.
WordPress Theme [edit]
The theme is available for download here from the Wikimedia git repository (the version in this repository is currently a bit behind but will catch up soon).
