Turning 200: Interviews/discussion

This month marks the 200th issue of The Bugle!

The Bugle was first published in March 2006. It was edited by the coordinator team as a whole until October 2010. Climie.ca and The ed17 became the inaugural editors that month, in an edition which also established the basic format still in use today. Ian Rose replaced Climie.ca a year later, and Nick-D replaced The ed17 in October 2012. There have also been several guest editors, including TomStar81 and Peacemaker67.

Throughout its history The Bugle has sought to provide members of the project with an update on recent activities, recognise editors' achievements and encourage new and improved articles. Over time its scope has increased, and it now includes op-eds on military history topics or issues related to developing articles, as well as book reviews, interviews and review essays. Importantly, these have been contributed by many members of the project, for which we and previous editors have been grateful. As many other Wikipedia newsletters have struggled to put out regular editions, or have become defunct, reaching 200 continuous editions is an achievement for the project.

Back issues of the newsletter are available at the archives.

To mark the occasion, we've interviewed some of the major contributors to the newsletter over the years. We are also very keen to hear your reflections on The Bugle, and ideas for the future.
