Bashing-omguiverc: Are you free ? Got issues to discuss with our Discourse setup.01:12
guivercask away Bashing-om 01:14
guiverc(no guarantees I'll know answers; but no harm in trying...)01:15
guiverci feel the 'work in progress' would be easily missed (esp. given the WIP wasn't seen before on discourse), thus maybe a variant could be "<h1><b><ins>WORK IN PROGRESS</ins><br><del>WORK IN PROGRESS</del><br></b></h1>"   (ins makes it green, del for reddish, h1 or header enlarges text)01:17
* guiverc hasn't made that change to skeleton/current-issue though01:17
Bashing-omguiverc: 2 issues. in the skeleton the Planet section is defined - but does not appear when displayed. Same thing on the 810 works-in-progress. I can not see a fault :(01:21
guivercit'll be a typo I bet; forgotten a closing > " etc..  I'll look01:22
Bashing-omguiverc: Called my self checking for that closing ">" .. Could be some thing I did ??01:23
guivercif it's in the skeleton, it'll be me I suspect... we'll find it.01:23
guivercnope, missing "-"...   at end of comment it needs to be "--> but there was a "->" thus comment never ended...01:24
guivercscan up BEFORE you notice the issue01:25
Bashing-omguiverc: When the Planet is corrected - also have an issue in the Hub section where an item is added in edit mode and also not appearing in display.01:25
guiverchave a look again (I've made edit(s))01:27
guivercthe issue with the planet was a missing "-" inside hub, causing everything after the missing "-" to be comment01:28
Bashing-omguiverc: Nope - Planet is not apparent :(01:28
guivercare you in edit?01:29
Bashing-omguiverc: No - if I access https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/uwn-skeleton-template/39501 - I do expect to see the plant as a section.01:30
guivercif I view https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-weekly-newsletter-issue-810/39540 in private window (firefox) I see it01:30
guiverci've not edited skeleton, only 81001:30
Bashing-omguiverc: Yeah 810 Planet section now appears good :D01:31
guivercskeleton now edited, the ->> changed to -->01:32
guivercsorry, there maybe other typos like that I missed... we'll find & correct them01:33
Bashing-omguiverc: I am stuck now in the Hub section. The URL for "Modern Communication Platforms" is not taking properly :( No idea why as I have verified the URL is valid and recopied it.01:39
guivercunimportant, but if you contrast the 810 with skeleton; is WIP better on skeleton  (what I quoted earlier ^; or just annoying with greend/red?)01:39
guivercwill look (modern comms)01:39
guivercis there a \n mid-URL; I'd just try pasting url again 01:40
Bashing-omguiverc: Contrast: I opt for the larger text and red :)01:41
guivercsorry, you said you re-pasted, I'll give it a go.01:42
Bashing-omguiverc: Good thought on the /n - maybe from ny text editor . checking :D01:43
guiverci just edited it (i suspect it was a \n)  ;  also WIP now red on 81001:44
guivercthe WIP in red I think needs a <br>  (more white space after it to help it stand out)01:45
Bashing-omguiverc: Whatever you think looks best - I be fine with it. // Making a comment/suggestuon for an article; what do you propse we use to get the other's attention ?01:54
guivercditto re: what you think works... i'm not good with aesthetics (even the spelling of that word :)  )01:55
guivercsorry for wasted time b/c of ->> typo, but thanks Bashing-om   ... I suspect our (esp. your) regular edits/adds to doc & it jumping to top of queue on discourse will get attention anyway01:56
guivercyeah after the WIP maybe a IF YOU HAVE SUGGESTIONS... PLEASE maybe beneficial01:57
guivercthe "IF YOU HAVE" can be red (or green) but not larger/h101:57
guivercdo we want REPLIES to be suggestions?  or will that be messy?01:59
* guiverc has to update https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-weekly-newsletter/359 in due course (it mentions gdoc we'll likley not use again)01:59
guivercthat doc is prehistoric i just noticed02:00
Bashing-omguiverc: Lots of Gdoc history to clean up - as I go through my notes I take care of what I find. // So pleased to be free of Google :P02:02
guiverc:)   biggest notice I have currently is oogle I do on chromium on another display; it doesn't hide this hexchat window... discourse is in firefox which shares screen with firefox so my current workflow is wrong! & i need to adjust..02:05
guivercI've added "<del>This is our next issue that is currently being generated, if you'd like to be involved or have any suggestions, please get in contact with us at #ubuntu-news on libera, or email ubuntu-news-team@lists.ubuntu.com </del><br>" to the skeleton, so you see view skeleton to view what it looks like (we can adjust/improve as required)02:15
Bashing-omlooking02:16
guivercif you're happy with it, you can add to 810 when next edited (i can do likewise too)02:19
Bashing-omguiverc: Your last Looks great // Now too we need to change the link in the channel's topic.02:19
* guiverc doesn't see incorrect link; if you have url please paste 02:22
guivercoh here on irc !02:22
guivercwhat link do use though :(   let me think about it02:24
guivercs/do use/to use/   grrrr02:24
=== ChanServ changed the topic of #ubuntu-news to: The Ubuntu News Channel - You report it, we publish it! Serving the Fridge, Ubuntu Weekly News, and other fine publications. | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewsTeam | Current UWN Prep: Please visit latest issue at https://discourse.ubuntu.com/c/uwn/124
guivercany better Bashing-om ?02:25
Bashing-omguiverc: Yup that *works*02:26
Bashing-omguiverc: ^ that catches me all up --- breath :P02:28
guiverc:)02:28
=== ChanServ changed the topic of #ubuntu-news to: The Ubuntu News Channel - You report it, we publish it! Serving the Fridge, Ubuntu Weekly News, and other fine publications. | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewsTeam | Current UWN Prep will be latest issue at https://discourse.ubuntu.com/c/uwn/124
guiverc(a few less words)02:31
guivercI've updated https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-weekly-newsletter/359 , no hurry but a quick read thru Bashing-om might be in order (feel free to edit/adjust as necessary)02:51
guivercwe could 'move' that to "Ubuntu Weekly News" section.. but I'll leave it (mods may re-evaluate decision given edit will bring it to top)02:52
Bashing-omguiverc: Doing ^ now .02:52
guivercI am inconsistent with day/timings, ideally it should be UTC related (day/time) but i'm heavily influenced with my AEST local times..02:55
Bashing-omguiverc: "On Monday editors review the near-complete document." No mention that we publish on Mondays long about 20:00 UTC.02:58
guivercyeah review is monday my local, publish is tuesday my local.. the inconssitent day/timings issue; that should be corrected to be UTC02:59

guiverc& yes.. i didn't mention publish at all !!03:00
guivercI'll attempt to clean up times (to UTC) & add publish bit shortly03:01
guivercwe'll need to edit redirect on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Current  after publish of 810 on discourse03:04
Bashing-omguiverc: Noted to make the re-direct edit.03:08
guivercwe can adjust it maybe once & use the link i used for topic here03:09
Bashing-omguiverc: Agreed.03:12
guivercBashing-om, review https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-weekly-newsletter/359 again (day/times hopefully better)03:14
Bashing-omguiverc: Doing03:14
guiverc2nd paragraph is untidy.. my adding the issues can be viewed reads as if it was an afterthought (alas it was when added)03:15
guiverc"Issues can be viewed (including work-in-progress issue) at" needs to be moved to the bottom somewhere03:16
Bashing-omguiverc: Yeah ^ will work well as the concluding statement. // "the newsletter is released at ..." As a new paragraph ?03:22
guivercwhen are you adding stats?   (that maybe should be before review is mentioned I wonder!) 03:25
Bashing-omguiverc: I do the stats and reports sections Sunday.03:27
guivercadjusted..  (review added to the stats/reports)03:30
Bashing-omguiverc: Reads well in my opinion now.03:33
guivercthanks Bashing-om 03:33
Bashing-omguiverc: Just one of the things we do for the community :P03:34
Bashing-omI got chocolate - and yes I am going to suffer as a consequence --- but it is so good !03:36
* guiverc is jealous.. I didn't go down that isle yesterday at the supermarket03:37
Bashing-omguiverc: My naughty Daughter brought them in for me :P03:38
guiverc:)03:38
guivercBashing-om, do you have a (somewhat recent) copy of the uwn sources that were found at the bottom of the gdoc?   it maybe worth adding them to the end of https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-weekly-newsletter/359  (or in the wiki section at the top too)04:10
Bashing-omguiverc: Likely that I do - looking.04:14
=== Eickmeyer is now known as Erich
Bashing-omguiverc: I fail to see any relevance but - this: https://termbin.com/zuox ? 04:30
=== Erich is now known as Eickmeyer
guivercthanks, we had a copy on the wiki (really old if I recall correctly), and was thinking we should have it somewhere on discourse.. 04:34
guiverchttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/LinkSuggestions was what I was thinking of04:36

guivercjose, can I get you to find your fridge-editors hat & review https://fridge.ubuntu.com/?p=10007&preview=true when you can  (call for nominations loco)22:06
joseguiverc: checking22:06
guiverci didn't change poster to be ubuntu-news; not sure it matters22:07
josenope that's okay22:07
guiverci wanted to include discourse post; so tacked on at the bottom (so text itself is quoted only)22:08
josesorry, was checking something work related22:08
joselet me take a peek now22:08
joseguiverc: only change I'd make is to hyperlink texts instead of adding a full link22:08
joseother than that, looks good to me22:09
joseso, for example, under ```empowering and helping out LoCo Teams```22:09
joseinstead of putting the link afterwards, just add the hyperlink to the "LoCo Teams" text22:09
guivercsorry hyperlink vs full-link is beyond me (trying to work out what you mean).22:13
guivercI think i know what you mean; I like adjusting as little as possible, hold on and I'll edit & do what I think you mean..22:13
guivercaltered jose 22:16
joselooks good to me!22:16
guivercthanks jose, appreciated.22:17
