Suggestion by PAC2 (2024-05-16)
The Signpost should write about... Categories of created articles.
Last year, I published an article about a set of tools to analyse the list of articles created by a user. I've just developed a new tool which analyses all categories associated to the list of articles created by a user.

- based on last year's article, this one should probably be accepted, but I'm not in my comfort zone on tech. Smallbones(smalltalk) 18:00, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
Suggestion for Crossword by Andrybak (2024-07-27)
Re: 10 down in Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2024-07-22/Crossword, may I suggest incorporating (deliberately hidden) into the crossword? Or perhaps it was already used in one of the previous issues? Found in (spoiler alert) an archived discussion. —andrybak (talk) 15:14, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
Suggestion by Shadestar474 (2024-07-28)
The Signpost should write about... the Wikipedia article about Wikipedia and how technically that whole article goes against WP:COI because everyone who has ever contributed to that article has a COI with Wikipedia. That would be an interesting Humour article!

- @Shadestar474: I already had something like this noted down as a potential draft. On the Wikipedia talk page, you can see that an AfD is ran on some April Fools' Day with this logic. Is your suggestion for someone else to write it, or would you like to collaborate on it? (Humour is not my strong suit.) Svampesky (talk) 23:59, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- I’m not very good at humour, either, so I was thinking that maybe one of the more experienced humour writers could write it? Shadestar474 (talk) 09:04, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
- Well, we have some experienced writers, and some humour writers, but I'm not sure we have any experienced humour writers. April 1 is an especially difficult time to write humour. Smallbones(smalltalk) 22:23, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- We should probably just get one of the humour writers to write it, then? Shadestar474 (talk) 22:38, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

Suggestion by Shushugah (2024-09-04)
The Signpost should write about... Internet Archive has lost its appeal in Hachette v. Internet Archive, the long-running, closely watched copyright case over the scanning and lending of print library books
