That worked nicely, but Katherine clearly took the cake with https://twitter.com/krmaher/status/609349086198677504 : 440 RTs and 280 favs :-o
BTW, regarding this response there: https://twitter.com/ericlaw/status/609361607152398336 ("Wikipedia could improve load time on the HTTPS site by sending less data. Remove useless image metadata"), you could point him to https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T100546 where something very similar is being discussed. Or @mediawiki could.
