The Yorkman team is now starting work on our nineteenth issue. In this issue we'd like to cover a wider range of stories than before, from a wider area of the island. If there's anything happening in your village (or patch of jungle) that you'd like us to cover, get in touch. This is a perfect opportunity to promote your activities, raise awareness of your cause, or just bring your settlement into the public eye, so dont be shy!
Contact Us
We can be contacted either through our user talk page or via e-mail.
Submissions
Submissions are probably best e-mailed to us, or you could post them here. We're looking for any breaking news, potential interviewees, budding columnists, and so on.
Shameless Self-Promotion
We love it! If you want a little section promoting your group, email us and we'll consider it. Extra credit given for humour or just being really clever. Keep it short, add a little picture, and it might just get in. Or pretend its news and submit a whole story...
If you'd like to submit a banner for the ads section of the next issue, either e-mail us your completed 500x100 picture, or if graphics aren't your thing, contact us with a slogan and a vague idea (or even a slogan) and we'll do our best.
General Policies
To protect our journalists, we will never reveal the identities of our reporters, and will offer similar protection to our sources, interviewees, and columnists, should they so desire.
The Yorkman will strive to report the truth at all times, and to avoid presenting opinions and guesses as factual information.
Also, that rubbish Page 3 Pirates joke has been scrapped. We're not sorry. Are you?
