Hi there,
I've been getting so frustrated by the stupid titles people are giving
their articles that I've started changing them. They must describe the
contents of the article.
Also I have some suggestions:
a.) That the we consider 'in principle' if we want to have a newswire
dedicated to what we believe to be genuine content of interest to NZ'ers.
If we do then we can discuss the best way to do this. There are several
option I see.
b.) That we change the text above the title box from 'the title' to 'title
- describe the articles content'
c.) That we change
'the summary (no more than 6 lines - include the duration of the piece if
you are publishing audio or video)'
to:
'In six lines - please summarise the article for the newswire page [link].
Include the duration of the piece if you are publishing audio or video.'
If people agree to those two changes to the publish page I'll add them to
the wiki.
