Submission desk

[edit]

Please propose Signpost stories you want to write (or have already begun writing). Submitted stories are published subject to the approval of the Editor-in-Chief, JPxG. We value the involvement of Wikipedians, and appreciate your submissions. If you have ideas or questions that don't fit neatly into this framework, don't hesitate to address us on our user talk pages, by email, or as a last resort, on the general Signpost talk page.

The Signpost's content guidelines may be useful to aspiring writers. We encourage you to contact us early in the process of developing a story. Different writers have varying levels of interest in editorial input, and we pride ourselves on finding the right balance with each writer; but in most cases, a brief discussion early on can help all parties shape our expectations, and can help produce a strong finished piece. We aim to support Wikimedians wishing to share news with their peers, and look forward to working with you.

  • Submission: Invisible in the Hyperlink Network https://medium.com/p/90fbbaf7d182
  • Column: TDB
  • Author: OpenSexism
  • Discussion:
    This piece is about the Wednesday Index, which has used PAC’s Wikidata tool to measure the gender diversity in the biographies linked from a set of 26 English Wikipedia pages — from ‘Reality’ to ‘Universe’, ‘Science’ to ‘Justice’ —for the past two years to get a sense for both the extent of citation bias on Wikipedia and how quickly it changes. In addition to data visualizations and discussion, the piece links to related research and the two previous posts about the Index. After I published this piece on Medium, I was referred to the Signpost, as it has a large audience in the Wikipedia community. I read the submission guidelines and understand that you prefer to work with writers earlier in the writing process, but I wanted to touch base to see if there was a place for the work in your publication.

    I'm, uh not an WP Signpost writer nor editor, but I'm interested to make an Wikipedia crossword, which will have relevant information from the articles I have come across. This will also have Wikipedia terms, obviously, and words that are related to intresting information.Spongebob796 (talk) 02:03, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Looks like there wasn't actually a submission here. Spongebob796, if you are still considering one, it might be worth taking a look at previous crosswords for context and inspiration. Regards, HaeB (talk) 03:07, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    This is my first opinion here on The SignPost, I wrote this to express my feelings how they are recognizable now, this includes on being number 1 most popular Wikipedia article in Filipino musicians in 2024. I added who they are, how they formed, the rising of girl group, controversy and my final thoughts or my "real" commentary. Royiswariii Talk! 05:24, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is better than OK. You'll get a [[byline] so you don't need to introduce yourself on the first line. You might just give a short description of a short description as the lede. What rubric should it go under? I think "Tips and tricks" is already taken in this issue, but there are lots of applicable rubrics. Smallbones(smalltalk) 15:06, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like this ended up at Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Drafts/Humour 2025-03? In any case, in the recent past the Signpost's readers have already been regaled with various other rants about US politics in general or Elon in particular; I'm not sure this is among our most neglected content areas.
