Module:News/data

This page is currently under development(You) VVILL NOT edit the page until it's properly finished.

The list of newspaper issues. An issue appears on the front page, in the archive and in its "neighbors" navigation once it has a record here. Adding a record here causes the issue to be "released" and automatically be identified by all other modules as a release. This means it will automatically be added to the front page, etc.

---

-- Issue registry for Module:News . One record per issue, keyed by Issue ID.
-- @todo, maybe json this and let bot handle?
-- required: number, title, summary
-- optional (still do it nigger): page (default <base>/<ID>), date (default from the ID),
--          image: no file prefix, alt, embargo (YYYY-MM-DD, not listed before that day)
-- adding a record lists the issue. Order is worked out from the dates.
