You may always propose your own article.

OR

You may wish to investigate articles in the #fm-stalled column in the Fedora Magazine kanban board.

If a topic has been proposed and the article is not being actively written (no activity or replies in the topic for usually several months or more), they are moved to the #fm-stalled column. These topics may be available.

Reply to the article topic and enquire about the status. The assigned author should reply and you may negotiate with them. If there is no reply let the editors know of your interest and it can be assigned to you and moved to the #fm-in-progress column in the kanban board.

Assign

If you propose an article and it is approved, it will be moved to the #fm-in-progress column in the kanban board by the editors.

Write your article in the Magazine WPEngine (create a new article there). If you are familiar with WordPress, WPEngine works the same. Read the Writing Guidelines page for specific guidance about our preferred writing style.

Here’s a template you can use to structure your article well, and make it as useful as possible to readers. Make certain you set the article status from Draft to Pending Review once you receive approval. You can also "Enable public preview" if you wish others to review the artical before publication.

As you write your draft, try to understand and follow the style, grammar, and SEO guidelines for the Magazine. Don’t skip this step! The guidelines tell you how to use markup, write better sentences, and get your article ranked well in search engines. Also, if you write a better article, the editors are more likely to publish it sooner.

When you feel you are done writing the article and it is ready for review, state that in a comment in your Discussion topic. The editors will move it to #fm-ready-for-editing in the kanban board.

Please make certain you include a link to the WPEngine preview for your article in the comments on the Discussion topic so the Editors can access it.

And that’s it!

Note that in some cases the editors might require or suggest a change in your article. If that occurs you will receive feedback in your article Discussion topic. This is discussed in the Review section.
