YOUR FEATURED ISSUE
Syria/Iraq
Syria’s war has been the most complex conflict to emerge from the 2011 Arab uprisings. At least twice—in the spring of 2013 and in mid-2015—the Assad regime almost collapsed. Its comeback is attributable largely to outside players. The war has evolved through five phases that, along the way, have embroiled foreign figures and militias (often on different sides) from dozens of countries, regional governments, and global powers.

As a Page Manager, you will be responsible for a set of pages associated with your featured issue. The pages associated with the SYRIA/IRAQ issue are:
INTRODUCTION PAGE
The introduction page is what a person will see after clicking the link from the Featured Issues menu. The content on the INTRO page is meant to be minimal, just enough to elicit a person's interest. At the bottom of the INTRO page is a link that leads to the ANALYSIS page. ANALYSIS PAGE On the ANALYSIS page the Page Manger has the freedom to fully develop the issue with content that is displayed in a way that is most likely to inform anyone who is interested in the issue. It might not happen, but if a person reaches the bottom of the ANALYSIS page a person could click the link to go to the organizing page. |

ORGANIZATION PAGE
Although people can reach the ORG page from the link at the bottom of the ANALYSIS page, the primary purpose of the ORG page is to give the Page Manager a workspace to manage content before it is placed on the INTRO page or ANALYSIS page.
ADMINISTRATION PAGE
The administrative page will mostly be used for the chapter president or other chapter leader to place instructions, critiques, or other information that the Page Manager can use to build and manage their page.
SLUSH PAGE
It happens often that a Page Manager will have content that doesn't fit well on the INTRO page or ANALYSIS page but it might be useful in the future. In those cases, instead of deleting the content, the Page Manager can place it on the SLUSH page in case it is needed for a future purpose.
