User:SuperHamster <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:SuperHamster> has done a remarkable amount of volunteering for Wikimedia in the United States this year. In addition to supporting the Ohio Wikimedians User Group <https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikimedia-l/2018-October/091277.html>, this year he was an organizer for both Wiki Loves Monuments 2018 in the United States <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2018_in_the_United_States> (which had over 10,000 entries and almost 2,000 participants), and WikiConference North America 2018 <https://wikiconference.org/wiki/2018/Main_Page> which took place at the Ohio State University Libraries and the Columbus Metropolitan Library.
Deb <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:DTankersley_(WMF)> sent two emails to Wikitech-l with many links regarding the events at the Wikimedia Technical Conference. [1 <https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2018-October/091041.html>] [2 <https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2018-October/091048.html>]. I encourage anyone who would like to know what happened at the conference to read Deb's emails. Wikidata's sixth birthday <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Sixth_Birthday> is on 29 October 2018. I will take this opportunity to say that, from my perspective, I think that Lydia <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Lydia_Pintscher_(WMDE)> has done a lot of good work on Wikidata, and I think that the project is flourishing partly due to her consistently good execution. She doesn't call a lot of attention to herself, but I think that what she has done is impressive. What's making you happy this week? You are welcome to comment in any language.
