Krill: Welcome to this week’s installment of Newspage, I am your host, Krill.

Cookies: And I’m Cookie!

Krill: Today’s headlines: Kanadaj’s project, changes in hyperlinks, and WriTE elections.

Cookie: And double stuffed Oreos!

Krill: First, the project. As most of you must have already noticed, an admin of RRl – kanadaj – has asked to use some of the data from the site on his final project. We at Write Way wanted to firstly congratulate kanadaj pre-emptively on what will probably be an amazing project, and then to assuage any concerns readers may have regarding the data. Kanadaj has assured us that the data is both anonymized and relatively impersonal. He basically needs to know things like ‘where are most RRL users from,’ information which they – and anyone with access to sites like Alexa – already know. By asking for permission, he is both respecting the users’ rights and following university procedures, so good job Kanadaj!

Cookie: Yay, good job!

Krill: Second bit of news is the change in hyperlinks in chapters on RRl. Chapters will no longer allow hyperlinks (which is why we are discontinuing the ranking lists) however, top and bottom author notes still allow hyperlinks, so remember to follow your favorite authors’ other works/social media etc!

Krill: Lastly, RRl’s largest group – Writers To The End – is holding elections over this week. Although non-members cannot vote, dropping by the discord chat over next week should be a zany experience, to say the least. WriTE is in charge of this magazine, as well, so the future of Webfiction is up for grabs!

Cookies: Make me mod!

Krill: And that’s all that we have tonight. Note that there won’t be a Pictostory winner for this week but tune in next week for more Scribble-y goodness! Thank you for your time. This was The Newspage with me, Krill.

Cookie: And me, Cookie!

Krill: See you next week!
