Hello colleagues, As an update regarding WMYHTW emails, they will probably remain paused for June, and I am not sure that they will return. However, there will be an "On the bright side" piece in this month's Signpost regarding the 500,000 article milestone for Egyptian Arabic Wikipedia.
I think that I have enough capacity to continue monthly "On the bright side" pieces in The Signpost for June onward. I did not intend "What's making you happy this week?" to mean in practice "What's making Pine happy this week?", but unfortunately that is what often happened. I would be glad to see other people write similar emails.
