Welcome to the second Bugle for 2025!
Following on from Hawkeye7's op-ed last month which discussed the considerable reduction in A-class nominations, Matarisvan has contributed an article proposing three ideas for improvements to the A-class process. This is an important topic, and The Bugle's editors would welcome more articles on it.
Staying on the topic of the A-class process, the regular article news section covers the four articles that were promoted in January. This is a positive change and it would be good to keep the momentum going. Even more impressively, eight articles were promoted to featured status in January, along with two new featured pictures. Congratulations to all the editors involved.
The regular book review section includes three reviews by Hawkeye7 of books on various aspects of World War II.
Your editors, Ian Rose (talk) and Nick-D (talk)
