Welcome to the eighth edition of the Bugle for 2018!
We're pleased to present a bumper edition this month. The number, scale and importance of the events of September 1918 summarised by TomStar81 in his World War I timeline are huge in their own right. Tom has also provided an op-ed on two major treaties signed in September 1918, which ended the war for the Ottoman Empire and Bulgaria. The regular book reviews section includes reviews by Indy beetle and Nick-D of recent books on under-recognised military history topics.
Continuing the 'big' theme, the article news section includes no less than 14 new A-class articles and 9 new featured articles promoted in August, as well as a new featured picture. These include Attar-Aram syria and Fitzcarmalan's first FAs and HueSatLum's first A-class article: congratulations to all three editors!
Congratulations also to White Shadows on their first A-Class Medal!
Last, but not least, nominations for the project coordinator election are underway, with voting to take place during the second half of September. It's always good to have a mix of experience and fresh blood on the coordinator team, and all members of the project are strongly encouraged to consider nominating. Further details on the election are provided below.
Your editors, Ian Rose ( talk) and Nick-D ( talk)
Project coordinator election |
Nominations for the upcoming project coordinator election are now open. A team of up to ten coordinators will be elected for the next year. The project coordinators are the designated points of contact for issues concerning the project, and are responsible for maintaining our internal structure and processes. They do not, however, have any authority over article content or editor conduct, or any other special powers. More information on being a coordinator is available here. If you are interested in running, please sign up here by 23:59 UTC on 14 September! Voting doesn't commence until 15 September. If you have any questions, you can contact any member of the coord team.
