So over 10 years ago or so, we used to have a newsletter called Trope Report, which covers all of the changes that happened on the wiki weekly. I have been nostalgic for it recently so I thought of it and it seemed to be a fun way to inform tropers about the changes going on around the wiki.
The sandbox for the project can be found at Sandbox.Trope Report Dummy Edition and the sandbox for ideas/plans can be found on Sandbox.Trope Report Ideas. After a new issue is published, revert the Dummy Edition back to a template using the text on Sandbox.Trope Report Template.

But are we gonna mention Mario Day?
ᜇᜎᜈ᜔ᜇᜈ᜔|I DO COMMISSIONS|ᜇᜎᜈ᜔ᜇᜈ᜔I mean, we could if we had to? I'd rather not add too much more though since the grammar needs to be looked at at some point. Last minute additions will slow us down even more.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessMinor tweak on my entry since the starting day of Ramadhan was recently announced.
Edit: Actually let me tweak it again cuz Saudi says 11th lol. (Yes, it isn't always the same for every country)

No child should have to think of selling medication for food. Are you afraid?Finished going over the current contents of the draft. Looks like we're just missing the description.
So who's taking care of the description?
I'd like to apologize for all this.Whoever wants to. I've never done it so I'd rather not, personally.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessWhat is the outline for the features for the March issue? I can help make an introduction.
ᜇᜎᜈ᜔ᜇᜈ᜔|I DO COMMISSIONS|ᜇᜎᜈ᜔ᜇᜈ᜔Well there are the tropes being disambiguated as well as the new Character specific page requirements.
She/Her | Currently cleaning N/AIf nobody takes it, I'll do it on Friday; when I'm done with finals. But I'd rather somebody do it now because we're way past schedule.

I'd like to apologize for all this.Oy. I'll try to take a crack at it then, but I can't promise it'll be good.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessEasily Forgiven is in TRS and has been renamed (it's now Acknowledged Absolution), but use of the old name isn't stopping. Would it be worth mentioning the project in Trope Report?
"As long as I have my comrades with me, I can do anything!" (She/Her) (Current Focus: Cleaning Hell Is That Noise misuse)I think so.
He/His/Him. No matter who you are, always Be Yourself.Jay wrote a description earlier (thanks!) and I looked over it earlier and made a few tweaks. I think it's good to go, so: published and bulletined!
^^^ The use of the old name didn't stop because the page hasn't been moved yet as no one has rewritten the description. That has to happen before any cleanup occurs.
Macron's notesReset button pressed + RSL sponsor added. Time to figure out the theme for this April issue. Last year was Troop Report; anyone got ideas?
In the meantime, I'll try to do a writeup for Outside Joke.
she/her | TRS needs your help! | Contributor of Trope ReportI doubt we'll be able to finish it by April Fools', but I'll try.
I'd like to apologize for all this.For tropes, I'm thinking about Frames of Reference, since there isn't much to it.
She/Her | Currently cleaning N/A- April Fools revolves around a good joke. A lot of the time, many are from those in the know. Jokes about how TV Tropes Will Ruin Your Life, for example. Then we have the Outside Joke, a joke made by those that simply are not well versed in the subject matter. Some more stand-up comics are appreciated, as only 32 jokes have been made. Just be sure not to tell us about what the real deal is with airline food; let us have our fun.
For Forumwatch:
- Sometimes you're curious about other tropers. You just want to ask simple questions. Drop by in Ask the Above Poster a Question and ask away. The questions are totally not going to change to make you look bad. We promise.

she/her | TRS needs your help! | Contributor of Trope ReportI'm good with adding the new Character-Specific Pages guidelines
Art Museum Curator and frequent helper of the Web Original deprecation projectYay, joke time.
Is it okay if I plug Ice Heart? It's just such a goofy glitch and I think it could be pretty funny.
Also wanna find a super popular trope to plug
If we need a theme, maybe we can just write as if Von Trope became a YouTuber or something. Bombastic writing and random suggestions to like and subscribe. IDK, just a thought, because of the Raid sponsorship. I'd gladly do the intro if we go with this one

Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessOoooh, nice idea!
Also, I'll need to investigate what's causing an issue with the code for the sponsor line... Edit: Issue resolved; admins have been informed.

she/her | TRS needs your help! | Contributor of Trope ReportBonus points if the report header image is done in the style of a particularly obnoxious clickbait You Tube thumbnail.
Welcome to Ideal's WorldI thought of a couple but I think these two titles would be funniest as a caption. Which direction do we want to go?

I'd like to apologize for all this.Hahaha, both of them are good.
I'll make my normal edits later tonight once I finally have dinner (delivery apps are useless and I'm dying) and I can tackle the description once things are sorted. I won't let us sit like we did this month

I'm from a country that doesn't use DST; pass.
I'd like to apologize for all this.
