What they needed. A second publication from the same newsroom, with a city focus and something the big portals do not have: a page for every mayor, hospital, company and public figure that appears in the news, built automatically from the articles.
What they got. The newspaper model plus the profile hubs module. An editor links a profile once; from then on the first mention of that name in any article becomes a link, Romanian case endings included. A partner-articles block shares stories between the three publications within a time window, so a story published on one site reaches the others' readers the same day.
Numbers. Set up in an afternoon on the existing admin. Three publications, one editorial team, shared authors and media.
