Revision as of 05:02, March 23, 2014
So, a while ago we had a blog. Whilst it was barely visited and is now lost somewhere on the Internet with no one here who has access to it, I thought it might be a good idea to make a new blog on our site.
So, I had a few ideas. Firstly, it would be a news blog. All the latest news added to the blog by our blog editors. Our editors will write news articles when they find out about the news and submit it to the blog. News should be anything and everything from merchandise releases to new episode information to Tapped Out updates to comic releases. This will essentially replace our news section of the main page.
So, here's some of the ideas I had planned for it:
- A team of at least three blog editors (me included meaning I would like at least two other editors for it, if not more) who would help keep it updated with all the latest news. If it's only me, or me and one other person, I don't see it working as well.
- A news submission form. We often miss things and only hear about them later. If everyone can submit news to us, we can look into it and write an article about it.
- A mailing list. When a new blog post is made, users get emailed about it and can come to us to read it.
- A monthly news summary post. This will basically summarize everything from the past month and summarize expected events over the next month.
I'm sure there will be some questions, and even some more ideas of what we could include. I would like to hear about it all. Remember, the feedback you give will have a say in whether we make this blog or not. The Solar Dragon 18:29, March 18, 2014 (EDT)
Discussion
- I feel a need to post something, as no one else has :P I have no overriding view on the matter.
-- CJC 10:57, March 21, 2014 (EDT) - I don't know if it's a good idea. We don't have so much active users which can write there. We already have Facebook, Twitter and inactive Tumblr./AleWi (talk) 13:56, March 21, 2014 (EDT)
- I think it is a great idea. It is supposed to be a 'daily' thing?(I mean if it would need to be up-to-date everyday)? / Loco87 (TALK / Contribs) 20:12, March 22, 2014 (EDT)
