Indymedia: 'How to publish guide'

Imc'ista | 28.07.2007 13:01 | Indymedia | London

Here are two versions of a 'How to publish on indymedia guide'. It leads you through the process of reporting your news on the newswire, how the publish forms work and how best to navigate them.

There are two pdf's - the first is to be read as a computer document "Howtotext-as text[sm].pdf" and the second is for printing out "IMC - how to text[booklet][sm].pdf" and is laid out in such a way that you can photocopy it on A4 sheets to produce an A5 booklet.

brilliant leaflet

19.09.2007 12:30

Ta for doing this, this leaflet is really useful.

Gilligan & anyone else interested, all the organising & development of Indymedia is done via the various imc-uk mailing lists, most of which are publicly archived on the web. Anyone looking to get involved as an admin or simply as a user wanting to follow/contribute to decision making processses should take time to familiarise self with & join these mailing lists.

Features - where centre column features are proposed and moderation is reported & discussed. (Lots of messages on this list, mainly about moderation - it's hard to pick out which message is about which article, so if you are trying to find if/why your article is hidden, best tip is to look through messages right after the time/date you published)
 http://lists.indymedia.org/mailman/listinfo/imc-uk-features | mailto: imc-uk-features@lists.indymedia.org

Process - discussion of policies & development of Indymedia (I think there is also a propose list, where things are proposed, & outcome is posted after discussion & consensus reached)
