So no one else needs additional responsibility for this. + +## What if the editor on duty is not the best editor for a particular article? + +This isn't a problem. Editor on duty isn't mean that the editor is responsible all thing, it means he/she is in charge of this issue. When he/she meets something he/she is not good at it, just seek help from the editor team. diff --git a/zine.toml b/zine.toml index e2439e5..5abe5e6 100644 --- a/zine.toml +++ b/zine.toml @@ -7,8 +7,7 @@ edit_url = "https://github.com/rustmagazine/rustmagazine/edit/main" menu = [ { name = "About", url = "/about" }, { name = "FAQ", url = "/faq" }, - { name = "GitHub", url = "https://github.com/rustmagazine/rustmagazine" }, - { name = "Discord", url = "https://discord.gg/DdwgBuReJe" }, + { name = "Sponsor us", url = "/sponsor" }, ] social_image = "/static/bg.jpeg"
