### [Submitting news](submitting-news)
**Data located in**: `/source/_posts` folder
**[Chronicles](https://fediverse.party/en/chronicles)** page aggregates latest news about major releases, development, interviews, related projects of Fediverse *social networks* (i.e., all the networks listed on main page).
Posts are available via [RSS](https://fediverse.party/atom.xml) subscription.
`Preview` is rendered on Chronicles page (limited ammount), text after metadata is shown in RSS (unlimited) and on post's page (see [Tags](https://fediverse.party/tags) ).
Every post **must have** the following __metadata__:
```
layout: "post"
title: "some title"
date: 2222-01-25
tags:
- pleroma
preview:
"short gist..."
url: "https://pleroma.social/link-to-news-source"
lang: en
```
`Tags`
A post may have one of these tags: fediverse, gnusocial, diaspora, friendica, hubzilla, mastodon, postactiv, pleroma, socialhome, ganggo, misskey, peertube, osada
`Preview`
Limit 150 characters - for "regular" and "wanted" posts, limit 350 characters - for "featured" post.
Please, stay within the limits in preview, otherwise it gets truncated half-sentence and will be posted that way on the Chronicles front page. Not good.
__Optional metadata__:
```
wanted: true
featured: true
banner: "pic.jpg"
authors: [{"name": "John Snow", "url": "https://ggg.social", "network": "socialhome"}]
```
`Wanted`
Add this metadata to a post that you wish to show in the upper visible part of the Chronicles page. Calls for contribution, donations, help should be posted with this metadata.
`Featured`
Add this metadata to a new internal website's article, to show the post in a prominent part of the Chronicles page.
`Wanted` and `featured` can't be mixed and are temporary. This metadata must be removed from an older post when creating a new "featured" or "wanted" post.
`Banner`
Required for "featured" posts only, an image wide enough to be used as a fullscreen background, should be placed in `/source/_posts/exact-post-file-name` folder. See [example](https://gitlab.com/fediverse/fediverse.gitlab.io/tree/master/source/_posts/fediverse-saves-from-pickup-artists-and-7-more-reasons-to-join).
`Authors`
Required for "featured" posts only. Add an array of object(s): name you wish to be shown as the author, and one website link. If it's the link to yout account on Fediverse, specify network name - lower case, without spaces.
### [Writing internal article](Writing-internal-article)
Each new internal article will be posted as "featured" in the prominent part of the Chronicles page, and will stay there for a while. It will also be distributed via RSS subscription. Your name will be featured as the author(s).
A merge request with an article will include all the things mentioned above for a `featured` post: a file placed in `/source/_posts` folder with necessary metadata, a 350-character preview and full text after metadata section, written in markdown. A banner image should be added to `/source/_posts/exact-post-file-name` folder that you'll create. Any other images used in the article may be placed there as well.
**Thanks!**
