Jan, Thanks for all of your work. The Swedish Wikipedia is a very inspiring project for me as a Dutch Wikimedian and I have been following (somewhat jealously) how the WMSE community responds to new innovations. Under your leadership I think your Swedish Wikipedia community looks quite healthy (as least it does to me, as an outsider). good luck with any future plans you have, Jane On Thu, Oct 8, 2015 at 10:22 AM, Jan Ainali <jan.ainali(a)wikimedia.se> wrote:

Dear Jan, Thank you very much for your immense contributions to the movement! Not the least of those is your ability to be (and I quote Sandra Rientjes) 'a source of sanity and calm'. I can't vow for chapter meetings as Sandra does, but I have seen a lot of that on public mailing lists. Happy editing! Erik -----Original Message----- From: Wikimedia-l [mailto:wikimedia-l-bounces@lists.wikimedia.org] On Behalf Of Anders Wennersten Sent: Thursday, October 08, 2015 11:09 To: wikimedia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org Subject: Re: [Wikimedia-l] I'll be moving on It is almost on the day 8 years since Jan and I joined the first WMSE board. And while we were many getting the chapters up and running, Jan did in many ways play a crucial role. When we were in internal turmoil, it was Jan who stepped in and took care of the critical task and saved the day. And even more important it was Jan who early on spotted the opportunity in the idea of the "new" chapters. And as an volunteer he and Holger spend almost a year filling in application forms, budgets etc, which become the excellent base for the fully fledged chapter that been here since Kudos for all what you have done and wishing you all the best for the future!

Huge thanks for everything you have done to help grow the chapter and provide leadership! I am very impressed and inspired by all the great stuff Wikimedia Sverige has been doing, including Wikidata-related (e.g. the menu challenge and visualiztion challenge) and GLAM initatives. I am sure the chapter will do just fine with new leadership, and would be great to have you back as a community person. :) (PS. and was cool to visit on Monday and see the office. even more impressed now and appreciate being welcomed there) Cheers, Katie
