Form:Newsletter issue

From Miniscope
Jump to: navigation, search

Form for writing an issue of the Miniscope Newsletter.


Page names follow Miniscope Newsletter, <Month> <Year>, named for the month the issue goes out.

Hand-written, not managed by SemanticSchemas. There is no Category:Newsletter issue, so SemanticSchemas never regenerates this page. The generated Form:Newsletter still exists and is regenerated on every sync; leave it alone. Template:Category/Newsletter sets this form as the default, so "Edit with form" on an issue opens this one.

What the form writes

In page order:

  1. {{Newsletter}}: the issue details and introduction. Stored as
 semantic data; drives the masthead, News cards and the archive.
  1. {{Newsletter story}}, one per story. The first is the
 featured story.
  1. {{Newsletter forum}}: up to two thread summaries.
  2. {{Newsletter participate}}: the survey and office-hours notices, plus any other {{Newsletter notice}}s.
  3. {{Newsletter footer}}.

A section left empty renders nothing, not even its heading.

The Status field starts as Draft on a new issue. Drafts are left out of News, the Main Page and project pages; see Property:Has post status.

Fields the generated form offers but newsletters don't use (DOI, version, review interval) are left out. Document type is fixed to Newsletter.
