Hi Daniel, I like the new design, however I am missing some information about the source of each post. Would it be possible to add the source website to each post?
And another more general question I have is, could the Planet be linked from the Wikimedia blog? I feel that it is quite hidden now, so by linking it from the blog maybe it would gain visibility.
