Oh wow, look at that awesome artwork that {{User|Edofenrir}} made for Issue L! This is a picture taken of how the planning for this Special Issue went for about the past month. No, seriously, it was crazy and hectic (but '''extremely''' fun) to get the issue out this month. Anyway, on to what I need to tell you all. This month, I have a lot of news to share. | |||
I will start off with the Feedback Survey: it has started! This survey was produced with piles of effort and time from the Core Staff poured into it, because we feel that our users should get the best that we can serve. So please help us to improve the quality of the paper and take the survey! We will assess the results next month after the release of Issue LI, so we should start implementing whatever changes need to made starting then. A link has also been added to the {{tem|Shroomfooter}}, so you do not necessarily need to go back to the Front Page every single time you want to view the [[The 'Shroom:Issue L/Feedback Survey|article about it]]. If you need assistance with something on the survey, be sure to check in with {{User|Ralphfan}}, who is in charge of this particular project. | I will start off with the Feedback Survey: it has started!

Also, we have a new project that has come along for the paper: [[The 'Shroom:Spotlight|The 'Shroom Spotlight]]! The purpose of the project is to help increase user productivity on articles that cover the games in the ''Mario''-series. This project will run independently from the monthly release schedule that the newspaper follows and will be managed by {{User|Xzelion}} (who pretty much fathered the concept behind the project), although there will be a monthly section in the paper that covers month-to-month updates on the Spotlight that Xzelion will also be in charge of writing. So if you have any questions about this, contact him! | Also, we have a new project that has come along for the paper: [[The 'Shroom:Spotlight|The 'Shroom Spotlight]]!

However, do not worry: in lieu of this chat party, the Core Staff is planning on investing time into a debate for the [[MarioWiki:Polls|Poll]] Chairperson Election (information on the election itself can be found below). The date and time of this event is not exactly known as of now, but an update will be brought to you next month on the topic. | ||
Some news on the [[The 'Shroom:Issue L/Mafia Game|'Shroom Mafia II]] game: it will begin during the first week of June. This is so that Stooben's game will be able to run its course a bit longer, and so that a little extra time can go into planning our game. {{User|Tucayo}} is in charge of the game and also has taken up the responsibility of writing a section about the game. So if you want to sign up, be sure to head on over to the forum and make a post clearly stating that you are interested! | Some news on the [[The 'Shroom:Issue L/Mafia Game|'Shroom Mafia II]] game: it will begin during the first week of June.
