      MSGID: 2:2/2.0 10487f7a       REPLY: 2:2/2.0 10487f72       CHRS: CP850 2       =================================================================        FIDONEWS INFORMATION       =================================================================               How to Submit an Article              If you wish to submit an article for inclusion in the Fidonews, here       are some guidelines, if you send it as an attached file; the preferred       method if you want reasonable control over how the published article       will appear in the Fidonews:              a) Plain text. If you could type it on your keyboard, it's probably        quite OK. No line may be longer than 70 characters.              b) Put a title to the article. Put the title in two times. The first        time, on the first line, with an * before it. The second time, on        the second line, without the * and centered. This will help in the        format since the title with the * is removed and used in the index,        the second line will become the headline. On the third line, put        your name and FidoNet address, present or former. If former, you        may want to add some other address where you can be reached for        personal comments.              c) Deadline for article submission is Sunday, 22:00 UTC.                     In case a) and b) above is not crystal clear, here's an excellent       summary by Ward Dossche, a major article contributor:              Piece of cake:              1) Ascii text       2) Line length of 70       3) Put this at the very top:              *The title of your text       The title of your text       Your Name - Your Nodenumber              The title is there twice, the line with the * is how it will be       visible in the table of content.                     Help the Editor by following the above guides. Below are some subjects       and the file extension for the article as set in the configuration       file for the making of the Fidonews. Please help by putting the file       extension of the correct subject on the file name if known.              Ideas for Subject areas:               Subject File | Subject File       ----------------------------------|----------------------------------        From the *C's *.css | Rebuttals to articles *.reb        Fidonet Regional News *.reg | Fidonet Net News *.net        Retractions *.rtx | General Fidonet Articles *.art        Guest Editorial *.gue | Fidonet Current Events *.cur        Fidonet Interviews *.inv | Fidonet Software Reviews *.rev        Fidonet Web Page Reviews *.web | Fidonet Notices *.not        Getting Fidonet Technical *.ftc | Question Of The Week *.que        Humor in a Fido Vein *.hfv | Comix in ASCII *.cmx        Fidonet's Int.

Put a .TXT       on it and I'll try to figure out where it should be in the Fidonews.              If you follow these simple guidelines, there should be little problem       in getting your article published. If your submission is too far out       of specs for the Fidonews, it will be returned to you and/or a message       sent informing you of the problem. This DOES NOT mean that your       article is not accepted. It means that there is something in it that I       can not fix and I need your help on it.              Send articles via e-mail or netmail, file attach or message to:               Bj”rn Felten       Fidonet 2:2/2 or 2:203/0       E-Mail b @ felten dot se       Skype file bfelten              IMPORTANT! If you send the article via e-mail, make sure you put the        word "fidonews" somewhere in the subject line! That way it        will always pass the spam filter, ending up in the proper        folder.              Please include a message, telling me that you have sent an article.       That way I will know to look for it.                     -----------------------------------------------------------------        Credits, Legal Infomation, Availability              + -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- FIDONEWS STAFF - -- -- -- -- -- -- -- +       | |       | Editor: Bj”rn Felten, 2:2/2 |       | |       | The IPv6 list: Michiel van der Vlist, 2:280/5555 |       | The S/W list: Andrew Leary, 1:320/219 |       | |       + -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- +              + -- -- -- -- -- -- -- - EDITORS EMERITI - -- -- -- -- -- -- -- +       | |       | Tom Jennings, Thom Henderson, Dale Lovell, Vince |       | Perriello, Tim Pozar, Sylvia Maxwell, Donald Tees, |       | Christopher Baker, Zorch Frezberg, Henk Wolsink, |       | Doug Meyers, Warren D.
