CUSWFN News

 * Written by Darth tom

Welcome back! After a few weeks of inactivity, during which Victor Dorantes and Brandon Rhea were the Head’s of CUSWFN, (and we offer them our deep condolences that they were unable to do as they had planned. We wish them the best in the Fanonical works they’ll continue with here.) Drewton and I have been elected as the new Heads, and we’ll begin by producing issues this time on a bi-weekly basis, delivered in exactly the same way as always, but with some exciting new additions to the Newsletter. So, what exactly are these new changes you’ll be seeing in the Newsletter now? Well, some of them I’m sure you’ll have noticed, many being layout and the like, but some you may not have, and I’ll be covering all of the new changes in this next section, in a definitive guide to the new CUSWFN.

So, new ideas? Well, the first one is a new logo and skin change. Thanks very much to Victor Dorantes for his logo input, but a new logo has been made by Drewton, and it’ll be serving in place of the old logo by Shadowphobia. In addition to this new logo change, there’s been a change in the color. Drewton and I discussed a color change, and we settled upon his light blue with a grey outline. Incidentally, it looks much nicer on Mozilla Firefox than on Internet Explorer. In addition to this new color change, we also have seen the addition of new pages to the Wiki, as well as losing the CUSWFN Cartoon, previously seen on this page here, and replacing it with the ‘Modal Nodes club’, by Drewton again, which will be, from what I understand, an old cartoon strip of Drewton’s.

We’ll also be having a Picture of the Week article, in which a certain image will be featured in the Newsletter, having been selected by either Drewton or I, in addition to all of the articles, both new and old. There will be updates on the latest fanon, used with permission of the author, in addition to coverage of the Good and Featured article nominations, to give you coverage of some up and coming main page articles. The sponsorship system remains, in addition to many of the old articles we had, such as Users comments and the like. Apart from that, CUSWFN will be relatively the same, but with fresh input from Drewton, instead of what I have always done. If Gonk will give his consent to continue with the Darthipedia supplement, then that will be continuing too. Brandon Rhea has also chosen to stay on as editor, something we very much appreciate and thank him for.

And now, back to Project Cruentus news, as CUSWFN has always covered. Project Cruentus, in the time since this Newsletter went slightly inactive, has now achieved it’s first good and featured article, as part of a collaboration between Unit 8311 and I, and we now have a second Good Article nomination in the Battle of Kothlis, another article by the same authors. Project Cruentus has also now been closed to any more participants generally, with all new applications being reviewed by the Project members on a case by case basis. Hopefully, you’ll enjoy the new CUSWFN with it’s new look, and please, do enjoy reading it.
