Currently, it's planned that we make a conference on Skype, which works up to five folks.

Discussion
Agenda
This is the basic layout of how the episode is planned to move along.
Time of Recording
Introduce the panel
That'd be the speakers listed above. Each person says what they'd like to about themselves, and we move on.

News
Please note we need a "reponsible person" for researching each news item, and to be the default person to provide insight and details.
From the Signpost
- Military history dominates writing contest. The winning entry was Crawford expedition, which went from this paragraph to a full-sized and excellent article.
- Upcoming change to user page warnings by WikiProject User Warnings, aiming to standardise user warnings in order to improve their ease of use:
- "These messages are, for a lot of editors, their first actual interaction with the Wikipedia community. There are currently just short of 300 user templates, ranging from the ubiquitous test messages to messages about behaviour and format suggestions. Technical and wording changes will bring this number down to roughly 100, although redirects will ensure that old templates still work."
Lighter side
Feedback
If anybody provides some particularly interesting feedback, or one of us has anything cool to say, we'd say it here. Who knows? It might be interesting, if we ever have anything to say.
The World According to Wikipedia
This would be a quick, light-hearted discussion of any particularly funny page-rankings we see on The Top 100 pages at Wikipedia. There's at least two or three minutes' worth of humour in that.
