A sincere thank you to Plato (the Admins family friendly alter-ego).
Journalism in eRepublik just got more accessible and less complicated thanks to the addition of simple button functions.... tis about time 😉
Bold, Italics, Underlined, Strikethrough text
Insert pictures, links and emails
Clean away tags keeping the text intact
….... and.....*drumroll*

….....
A PREVIEW FEATURE HAS FINALLY BEEN INTEGRATED INTO EREPUBLIK FOR ARTICLE WRITING !!!



May I take this time, Mr. Plato sir, while buttering you up with compliments, to suggest some further improvements to the media module:

The ability to view a list of the newspapers you are subscribed to. This would make it easier to recommend subscriptions to newspapers which may publish infrequently but have articles worth reading
Remove newspapers of dead citizens from the rankings page and place in some sort of archive or roll of honour list or something.
Improve how shouts are archived and displayed on the homepage by allowing us to go to an extended archive similar to how the news works instead of having to click back through pages upon pages and then hitting a dead end.
Allow us to see our number of subscriptions on our newspaper, profile page or just somewhere accessible.
Allow journalists to see information on citizens subscribed to them. This could be as detailed as their name or more general info like their citizenship.
Statistics on those who viewed our articles would be cool.
Overlaying the number of votes onto the Newspaper Avatar. Silly request I know, but from the homepage it’s impossible to know who has written the article as all we see is the title. Might be abit gaudy to have them all together I dunno.
A customizable news tab on the homepage with a corresponding extended version like that which already exists when clicking on “more news”. This would allow us to follow a news from a number of different countries combined in one easy to access place. Currently reading news from all over the world takes more effort than casual players are willing to expend. Set the default as all the countries where the media is of the same language as the citizenship of the player.
… ..and finally......YOUTUBE VIDEO EMBEDDING..... pretty please with an audio-visual singing cherry on top


Click for Eargasm - Imagine the colour explosion it would unleash

These were just the ones I could think up off the top of my head.
