Hi friends, 

A call for advocates and enthusiasts of cuteness the world over: Please bring a plushie to Wikimania. Let's cover the stage for the opening festivities on August 16 with cute plushies from around the world. 

If you're not traveling already, then get some good rest this weekend before Wikimania begins!!! Whether you'll be joining in-person or online, I know I'm counting the days till we get together and share, like we do. 

See you soon.
