+ == Content
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ The Community Blog focuses on updates and information about the Fedora Project community.
|
| |
+ Topics vary, but mostly include…
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ * News from specific sub-projects
|
| |
+ * Updates on new features or changes in Fedora
|
| |
+ * Calls for help from other contributors
|
| |
+ * Official {FWIKI}/Elections[Fedora Elections] coverage
|
| |
+ * Anything related to Fedora _contributor_ community

|
| |
+ == Fedora Magazine vs. Community Blog
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ What is the difference between the https://fedoramagazine.org[Fedora Magazine] and the Community Blog?
|
| |
+ They focus on two different audiences (or types of readers).
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ The Fedora Magazine targets everyday Fedora users, Linux enthusiasts, and technology hobbyists.
|
| |
+ Fedora contributors are included in these audiences, but they are not the main focus.
|
| |
+ The Community Blog is the news hub for Fedora contributors and people working inside of the Fedora community.
|
| |
+ The Community Blog specifically focuses on our contributors.
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ For example, an article on how to use a new package in Fedora is better for the Magazine.
|
| |
+ Any Fedora user may be interested in using the package.
|
| |
+ An article that announces a new feature to a Fedora Infrastructure service or an Ambassador event report is better for the Community Blog.
|
| |
+ A Fedora user may not be interested, but our contributors have a stronger interest.
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ Sometimes there is some overlap between the two.
|
| |
+ Think hard about who you are writing for and who you want to read your article.
|
| |
+ This should answer the question of where to write your article.
|
| |
+ The CommOps and Fedora Magazine teams are happy to answer any doubts or questions if you are unsure.

|
| |
+ == Write an article
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ The Community Blog is managed by the CommOps team.
|
| |
+ The system administration is managed by {FWIKI}/Infrastructure[Fedora Infrastructure].
|
| |
+ However, we need _your help_ to share the awesome things you and your area of Fedora are working on.
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ Articles don't need to be long.
|
| |
+ Short snippets are useful too.
|
| |
+ If you're not sure how much to write, 300 words is a good target.
|
| |
+ If needed, you can always write more.
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ See the https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/writing-community-blog-article/[Writing an article] guide to get started.
|
| |
+ This page explains the process for writing and how to get your post published.
