The way México DF has chosen to celebrate 16 years of Wikipedia en Español:
launching 10 million metro tickets with the Wikipedia logo :)

I returned to editing after a 3 and a half year hiatus two days ago. It 
honestly feels good to be back on the editing grind. It's honestly refreshing 
to be back. I truly missed it.

@Pine: That's awesome! Every project has to start somewhere. In 2001, nobody 
cares about Wikipedia. Look what's happened to it 16 years later. If Wikipedia 
and the foundation itself was a full sized novel, I'd say we're currently 2 or 
3 pages into the story right now.

11 candidates are standing for 5 seats on the Funds Dissemination Committee:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2017/Funds_Dissemination_Committee/Candidates
Q is ongoing (add your own questions!) at:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2017/Funds_Dissemination_Committee/Questions/Submitted/1

(I'm particularly happy to see so many good candidates running this time as I'm 
not one of them this time around!)

Thanks,
Mike

I haven't been in any doubt about this, for some time.

[Wikimedia-l] What's making you happy this week? (Week of 28 May 2017)

2017-05-31 Thread Pine W
I'm perceiving an increase in the number of mentions of Wikidata in ways
that make me think that Wikidata may eventually become an equal of
Wikipedia in terms of impact on the Internet in general, and perhaps even
surpass Wikipedia. Also, I'm looking forward to the improvements for RC
patrol.

What's making you happy this week?
