Hi there. I've modified the article with all the fantastic suggestions by Dale Raby. Also I've removed the duplicated content and converted the document to ODF, PDF and txt for people with slow computers or no google account. Thanks for all and regards.

Fifteen-year anniversary
by Link Dupont 03 Oct '18

03 Oct '18

Hello, This November will be the fifteenth anniversary of the Fedora project. Would it be appropriate to mark this event with an article on the magazine, or is that more community blog content? I thought it might be fun to provide people with a Fedora Core 1 libvirt image that they could boot up and see what Fedora was like in the beginning. Thoughts? Link

Article draft: Fleet Commander - Second round of reviews
by Oliver Gutierrez 23 Aug '18

23 Aug '18

Hi there! This is the Fleet Commander article with the fixes Dale has pointed in the past, better formatted and in a common format almost everyone can open. I removed duplicated content from it and now it seems to be much shorter than before, so maybe there is no need to split it in more than one article. Can you take a look at it and tell me what changes you need to be done? Thanks and cheers!

Joining Fedora Magazine
by Francisco Vergara 09 Aug '18

09 Aug '18

Hello everyone! My name is Francisco Vergara, I hail from the island of Puerto Rico were Linux is an unknown and nonexistent topic. I've been using Fedora for over 10 years, and I would like to become a Fedora Magazine Writer. Currently I work as a Front End Software Engineer and previously I did graphic design and transcribed legal court recordings. I can share knowledge on technologies like C#, .Net Core, Python, HTML, CSS, JS, Shell Scripting, Visual Studio Code and Art Design using tools like Gimp, Inkscape or Krita. I'm learning Security, Networking and programming in ARM devices. Software Security and White Hat hacking have always been a fascination of mine and as I learn I could show others what I've learned on the way. I'm also studying on how to use ARM devices so I can build irrigation systems and drones that can monitor crops to help local agriculture to produce more. Quite a lot that I want to learn,but Rome wasn't build in a day. Finally i would like to make articles with novice tutorials so the average Jane Doe or John Doe can switch to a Linux system like Fedora which sometimes can be overwhelming. Hope to meet your interest! Kind Regards Francisco Javier Vergara

by Brian (bex) Exelbierd 02 Aug '18

02 Aug '18

We hope to launch the new docs site tomorrow or Thursday. I've put together a pitch for an article for the Magazine. The text is ready for review, but I have a few links to drop in and clean up still. Some are on hold because we need to get the companion Community Blog article completed too. https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-admin/post.php?post=22134& action=edit&message=1 Thanks, bex -- Brian (bex) Exelbierd | bexelbie(a)redhat.com | bex(a)pobox.com Fedora Community Action & Impact Coordinator @bexelbie | http://www.winglemeyer.org

Comment moderation -- gathering tips
by Paul W. Frields 02 Aug '18

02 Aug '18

Hi Magazine editors, I wanted to open up this conversation to share how I personally moderate comments. I'm not unilaterally declaring any rules here. I'd love to hear from other editors how they make these decisions. In the end, I hope we can come up with common guidance that helps future editors. Which reminds me... Hopefully everyone does know that we do moderate comments on the Magazine. We think of the Magazine as a place where Fedora can put its best foot forward. That doesn't mean we don't take critical comments. We definitely do, as long as they're in the spirit of betterment. But just like a house party -- if you routinely let guests spill others' drinks, very soon no one will bother to attend. So we keep an eye on the party to ensure everyone can enjoy it. Often I go through a mental checklist to see if a comment has some quality that makes it unsuitable to publish. If a comment gets through those gates, typically I approve it ("If it doesn't fail, it passes."). These are the ones that I typically think about: * Does the comment show obvious signs of spam? (Examples: Suspicious website or email name, often coupled with highly generic comments that have nothing to do with the article content.) * Does the comment engage in rude or obnoxious behavior, like name calling, ad hominem attacks, unconstructive criticism, or insults against Fedora, people, other Linux distros, or open source projects? (Examples: "The maintainers of <X> project should be ashamed." "Fedora sucks, so I use $DISTRO instead." "$DISTRO sucks so I always use Fedora now.") * Does the comment lack clear discussion value? (Example: "This was a great post, I learned a lot.") These are three big ones I can think of. How do other editors treat comments? Are there other rules you use? Are there things on this list you think we should *not* use to disqualify comments? -- Paul W.
