This Signpost "Featured content" report covers material promoted from 16 to 31 July. Quotes are generally from the articles, but may be abridged or simplified for length.
A fairly minimalist content report again. Might be back to doing them properly next issue. Not featured this issue are things like Grief or Probate or Why Arizona can't issue a death certificate when it's been three weeks and my sister's been working to get my father out of the morgue this whole time. So it's a little hard to focus on. And I'm honestly just going to let myself focus where I still have enthusiasm.

- The intro makes clear the author was on a bad moment, hence him not changing. Am thinking of doing it myself. igordebraga ≠ 22:40, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
