This is excellent news, well done to everyone involved!
It's actually got me thinking a little. I wonder if it would be possible to
do a study of the, say, 50 largest Wikipedias and get a handle on which
articles are shared across all of them. This could then be used to analyse
where there are
I'm no expert, but I would expect that finding which articles are and are
not present in a given set of Wikipedias would be an easy task now that
Wikidata handles all the interwiki links.

With due thanks, I would like to specifically point to these two bugs, as I
believe they're changing the style of talking unnecessarily. I would like you
to see the potential for fixing these early.

Funding of international operating organizations is a very complicated
issue. The Wikimedia movement is not the first and not the last one to
face this topic. There are as many models on how this can be handled as

Thanks for this Ting. I won't offer an opinion but this is certainly food

Imo having a centralized funding model is very good against corruption (we
had a couple of cases already and unfortunately we will some in the future)

I would add a far more common issue than fraud, and one that costs us

Bence! Thank you very much for all the valuable work that you did for
the AffCom and for the movement as a whole in your role as a chair.
And also for being such a helpful mentor and reliable friend when it
comes to all those questions, ideas and discussions around all things
Wikimedia. I am glad
Congratulations to Carlos and Cynthia. :-)
Bence, the decisions made by Affcom are not always easy or happy ones
for volunteers, and I am grateful for the care you take bearing this
responsibility.

I have been incredibly impressed with Bence's leadership of AffCom (and I don't
offer that praise lightly). It was not an easy year to be chair, and he handled
it with a level of grace and wisdom which I envy. I appreciate everything you
