What I'd suggest is reaching out to journalism classes, and suggesting to teachers that a valuable student assignment would be to contribute to Signpost (or Wikinews). This is based on my WP:SUP experience. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 16:53, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

Postgraduate journalism classes, perhaps? As far as book reviews go, I think they're challenging to write—I needed help from others to get the current one to an acceptable level. But let me not dissuade, on the other hand; perhaps I might leave notes at a few WikiProjects and other places that bookish WPs are likely to hang out. On the reporting angle, there is likely to be a generation of journalists/reporters retiring earlier than they would wish from the dying newspaper industry over the coming decade. Some of these people might well find an outlet for their professional skills on The Signpost. Tony (talk) 11:44, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

We definately don't need anymore people on WikiProject desk. It takes one person+one project to do it. Thanks! Belugaboy ^{Talk to Me!} 00:22, 14 May 2010 (UTC)

Would be happy to do this if I got a copy of the book in time. Deacon of Pndapetzim (Talk) 20:34, 14 May 2010 (UTC)

Eep! Sad to see that Signpost needs more input. I love reading it but I'm afraid I can't spare the time. Hope somebody chips in, though. --bodnotbod (talk) 18:18, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
