FidoGazette Article Submission Guidelines
Updated 13 January 2021

FidoGazette, founded in September 2007, is an alternative newsletter
of the FidoNet computer network, for both its Sysops and users. It
is passed to its readers electronically via the FidoNet and other
computer networks and to non-network readers as well as to the
InterNet. FidoGazette welcomes articles, editorials, and features of
interest to the Fidonet Community. To have your article included in FidoGazette, simply send it via netmail to 1:18/200 or via internet
email to sean@outpostbbs.net.

To help me make it easier to format your article for FidoGazette:

1. Use standard ASCII text. Most word processor formats can't be used
by the FidoGazette software. In addition, the FidoGazette software
won't accept most ASCII control characters nor any characters above
ASCII 127 (this, unfortunately, includes all those neat box drawing characters). No UTF-8 encoding please.

2. Start your lines at the left of your screen when typing. The
software puts in a left margin automatically and I have
to manually remove any left margin appearing in your document.

3. Keep your line length to under 70 columns for tables or charts (or
if you include an ASCII illustration). Regular paragraphs exceeding
this 70 column limit can be reformatted during the editing process
but tables and charts are normally distorted beyond recognition by a
simple reformatting.

4. Separate paragraphs with a blank line. This is how my text editor recognizes paragraph endings so I have to add blank lines manually if
you don't.

5. Title your article as you'd like to see it in the Table of
Contents. If you don't, I'll make up a title for you, but I'd rather
have the article appear as you wish.

6. Include your name and node number (or internet email
address) under the title. I'll grab it from your message, if
necessary but again I'd rather have the article appear as you
wish.

7. Check your own spelling and wording. Though I feel free
to reformat your article so it conforms to technical requirements, I
generally leave the wording (and spelling) alone as I don't want to
distort what you have to say.

8. Send your article before Sunday in order to see it in that
Monday's edition. Normally I put the newsletter together Sunday
evening and send it out... and I normally check email and netmail
before I finalize the edition. So if I get your article before
Sunday evening, I'll include it... but send it by Saturday to be safe.
:)

9. If you're not sure whether you should write or send in your
article, I would encourage you to send it anyway. Chances are, if you
write of something of interest to yourself, it'll be of interest to
others. Besides, FidoGazette is a better publication when it's
written by a variety of people. We're all in this together and
remember, knowledge is power!
