Hello fellow editors of KHWiki.com and The Keyhole alike!

As part of "MegaProject: Arise" (our new project that aims to re-establish a flourishing community), we've decided to revive the magazine and podcast ideas (see this and it's talk page)! this forum will be where the Keyhole and KHWiki.com can both discuss how we'll go about making them. Here's what we've decided already:

  • The magazine and podcast will be side-by-side with each complementing the other.
  • A new issue will be released every three months.
  • The magazine will be coded on the Wiki and the podcast will be in the form of an .ogg file.
  • The magazine will contain a cover, contents page, summary of what's been happening in KHWiki.com for the past three months, summary of what's been happening in The Keyhole for the past three months, KH news report and a page with a link to the podcast with perhaps a summary.
    • The magazine's focus will be the community and interactive pages.
  • The podcast will contain a KH news report, Wiki news report and fan discussions (e.g. theories, explanations, speculation etc.)
    • Side note: The topic of time travel will be a lengthy talk!

We still have yet to decide a number of things however! Here's what we need to figure out:

  • For the magazine: What pages should we have? Who can write the coding?
  • For the podcast: What other bits can it have? How long should it be? Who can take part in making it?

So let's discuss!

Here's the pages I think we should keep for the magazine, aside from the cover, contents, and three news pages (one for KH, two for both Wikis). Note that I don't think the magazine should include Featured Articles since they have their own dedicated sections on the Wiki anyway.
  • Special Editor Page: Topic and writer changes entirely from issue to issue (e.g. in one edition it could be a theory while in another, it could be an analysis of all Sora's costumes) FinalRest came up with this idea.
  • Dive to the Heart: FinalRest came up with an idea of a game tutorial and a wiki tutorial, however considering we have a Wiki's worth of information (and we even have walkthroughs now!) the game tutorial will be pointless. We should probably focus on the wiki tutorial (e.g. customising talk bubbles or different ways of linking)
  • Round Room: FinalRest's idea of a staff roundtable with quotations and dialogue between staff. What conversation topics could we have, though?
  • User Page (unnamed): FR's idea. It will contain a user interview (about what, we need to figure out), top 5 list (e.g. top five magic commands) and a review, which doesn't always have to be about games. We have other topics too like mangas, battle abilities and gameplay mechanics.
  • The Game Grid: FR's idea: place for puzzles and riddles. I think we could perhaps host competitions around them and give out accolades to the winner.
  • Interactive Page: FR's idea: it would have a mailbag and FR also had ideas of "5 tasks for khwiki.com", "5 tasks for the Keyhole" and "5 tasks for KH games". I don't entirely understand what those would be so perhaps we should replace it with a poll.

So what do you think guys? We need everyone's opinions and ideas so this project doesn't die out again!
