Is this you? [[User:Realkyhick|Realkyhick]] 03:17, 30 December 2006 (UTC) |
|||
I don't know what I'm doing here. So I'd probably be interested in working on your project – please drop me a line. No job too menial. |
|||
I'm personally interested in: |
|||
*Newspapers*** |
|||
<!-- Would anybody be interested in working on an overhaul? I feel like, especially in the history section, there's a hodgepodge of trivia with names, dates and titles. If these are important details, I'd suggest they be moved into [[History of newspapers and magazines]] (or their relevant geographical sub-page) to restore a better flow in the main article. |
|||
Other thoughts: |
|||
*In general, we have lots of sections, many of which contain multiple subheadings and sub-subheadings, which isn't helping readability; some are duplicative |
|||
**With this, lots of images and "see also" / "main article" off-links lead to a cluttered feel |
|||
*Some sections could be combined, e.g. "Zoned and other editions" into "Circulation |
|||
*The advertising section is almost certainly too short, esp. with recent industry developments; online struggles are mentioned in multiple places |
|||
*And of course, there's plenty of {{cn}} stuff, which is always a challenge with newspaper articles |
|||
I'll start looking for better sources, and would be happy to do legwork if required. I know it's important to reflect a worldwide view. ~~~~ |

The '''''Austin Tribune''''' was a daily newspaper in [[Austin, Texas|Austin]], [[Texas]] that published from 1889-1915. |
|||
The ''Tribune'' absorbed a competitor, the ''Austin Daily News'', in 1904.<ref name="handbook">{{cite web |url=https://tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/eea11 |title=Austin American-Statesman |last1=Bishop |first1=Curtis |last2=Schroeter |first2=R.

Alongside the morning ''Austin Statesman'', the Tribune it was one of two daily newspapers in the city in 1914. That year, however, a rival morning newspaper, the ''Austin American'', began publication. In 1915, the ''Statesman'' bought the Tribune and abandoned its morning publication schedule, putting out the daily ''Austin Evening Statesman''.<ref>{{cite web|title=Austin American Statesman Resource Guide|publisher=Austin Public Library|accessdate=June 1, 2020|url=https://library.austintexas.gov/sites/default/files/AAS%20Resource%20Guide.pdf}}</ref> |

[[Erhard Auer]] was the Editor in Chief of the [[Münchener Post]], it was shut down by Hitler in March 1933 immediately after he became the Reich Chancellor. Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party called the newspaper and its editors "Giftküche" (The Poison Kitchen) and "Münchener Pest ("Munich Pestilence" or "Munich Plague"). Hitler considered the paper one of his most vexing public adversaries, and the paper was the target of libel actions by the Nazi Party. The paper was one of the few early warning voices regarding the dangers posed by the rise of the Nazi Party, although their warnings went largely unheeded at the time. Auer was imprisoned in the [[Dachau concentration camp]] and died 20 March 1945. The first book written on [[Erhard Auer]] and the [[Münchener Post]] was in 2013, in Brazil. ....

The term "Quad" in the group's name is a local reference to bass,[1] possibly deriving from the Quad Electrostatic Loudspeaker or the related Hartley Quad Decca (HQD) System.[2][improper synthesis?][original research?] Another possibility is quadraphonic sound.[citation needed]
