===Submitting Work===
Ok, first off, congratulations to everyone involved! We've published the second issue of the wiki's magazine! A huge thanks to FinalRest and Chainoffire for their incredible work in this last week, spending late nights to compile the whole thing for us. There are some things I'd like to point out for the next issue, and following issues, that I've learned in the last couple weeks. I would hope we'd implement them for this and upcoming issues, to make the process smoother as we continue this wonderful project.

*'''Coding''': I don't know if anyone else does this, but I submit my written pieces with the appropriate parameters for my pieces included. In addition, I add the links and font colors to make sure it still looks good. I think we should all do this; it helps Chain and FR a lot if they don't have to go and search which parameters our text goes under. In addition, however, and it's something I meant to do and then didn't, we should submit our pieces with the appropriate parameters and links so they can copy and paste our content to '''both''' wikis. What I mean is, when I submit it, I only submit a copy with links to KHWiki pages and KHWiki files. We should submit two copies of our work, one that functions in the ''Kingdom Hearts'' Wiki, and one that functions on The Keyhole.

*'''Timing''': Let's be honest, we literally waited till the last two weeks to get serious about Issue #2. Let's not do that. I don't mean we should be stressed about it right now, but let's not wait till December 18 to start, either. Perhaps we should begin the serious work starting November 1 or something. I think two months is good and smooth. In addition, while some pages, like Ansem's Report, the Door to Light, and Unlocking the Keyhole, have to wait 'till almost the submission date to cover everything, that those pages can't be worked on as the weeks go by. That way, by the time it's submission time, those pages are already mostly done, and little has to be adjusted to be current.

*'''Due date''': We had this for Issue #1, and we ought to implement it again for Chain, FR, and FM's sake. It should be about a week before the magazine's publishing date. Because this issue's release date is January 1, the due date would be December 25. So, I think it'd be better if for the January issue, we have a due date of December 18 and publishing date of either December 29, or sometime after January 1, for holiday purposes.

So I figured out the issue with the images on the previous versions of the magazine. At some point between October 5, 2014 (the publication date of the last magazine issue) and today (December 22, 2014, for the record), Wikia changed the location of all images. Compare with this revision - https://www.khwiki.com/index.php?title=KHWiki:Magazine/Issue_1&curid=44235&diff=653500&oldid=651621

The question now is, do we go back and fix all the images on the previous issues. This really only applies to the version of the magazine on the ''Kingdom Hearts'' Wiki, as The Keyhole should be unaffected. {{KeybladeSpyMaster/Sig}} 05:38, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

:If fixing them just means updating the links, then sure. {{User:TheFifteenthMember/Sig1}} 17:52, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
