The Wikipedia Library/Processes/Announcing partnerships/10 2016

Because we want to make sure that the Wikimedia community gets notified of new accounts in multiple venues within the same block of time in order to create an even playing field for Wikipedians in multiple language communities, make sure to do the following within a narrow window of time (preferably a couple of hours, but at least in the same 12-hour window).

Update en:WP:TWL/Journals

One of the most important steps is to update en:WP:TWL/Journals and The_Wikipedia_Library/Journals to include all of the newest partnerships. Similarly, the navigational templates en:WP:TWL/Header, and en:Template:TWLJ on both English and Meta should be updated to reflect the changing status of those new partnerships.
