|

Each issue of Week in the Privacy consists of the following parts:
|
|
|
|
* [News items](#news-items) - divided into [categories](#categories)
|
|
* [Upcoming events](#upcoming-events)
|
|
|
|
### Categories
|
|
|
|
* Research
|
|
* Concepts
|
|
* Ecosystem
|
|
* Governments
|
|
* Releases - only software releases
|
|
* Podcasts
|
|
* Videos
|
|
* Community
|
|
* Events
|
|
* Other
|
|
|
|
### News items
|
|
```
|
|
* <text> [(<src>)]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Keep it as brief and informative as possible
|
|
* Each news item must contain a link directly in the `text`
|
|
* There should only be one link in the `text`, rarely more
|
|
* The main link should be made up of words that capture the essence of the news item
|
|
* Use a Twitter/X handle in a message if it's about someone specific - e.g. `Horswap: ...., by @MicahZoltu (src)`
|
|
|
|
Usually each message has 1-2 links:
|
|
* main link - points to a specific project, report, message, etc.
|
|
* source link (optional) - points to the source of this news like article, tweet etc.
|
|
|
|
For links to pages to article with a paywall, its a good idea to use e.g. [web.archive.org](https://web.archive.org/), through which the whole articles are available.
|
|
