Someone with the entirely authoritative email address "
hillbillyholiday(a)gmail.com" writes (apparently under the impression that I
don't know who Andreas is) the following:
'I am appalled by your sneering condescension of Andreas.'
This is an unusual misreading of a fairly straightforward, even though
ironic, text. A careful reader will have noted that did not dispute
Andreas's research or recitation of any facts. What I did dispute is his
characterization of motives, which is ungrounded in any of those facts.
In a subsequent message, Hillbillyholiday says somethingsomethingsomething
about me being a nazi, haha.
In the land where I grew up, soi-disant "hillbillies"--whether on holiday
or not--knew their Bible verses. So perhaps Hillbilly will understand why
the verse that comes to mind in reference to his attempt at a riposte is
Job 38:4.

Dear Wikimedians -
The Annual Affiliates' Report for Wikimedia Community User Group Malta, covering the period August 1, 2020 to July 31, 2021 is available on Meta.
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Community_User_Group_Malta/Report…
Three particular highlights include:
* A substantial rise in our metrics for Wiki Loves Monuments 2021 in Malta along with the first honorable mention for a photo from Malta in the international contest (20th place)
* Our first Wikipedian-in-Residence program through a partnership with the Valletta Design Cluster, a GLAM organisation based in Malta
* The production of a weekly radio series on Campus FM, the University of Malta radio station.
We welcome comments and questions, of course.
Thank you all for your generous support and cooperation!
Kind regards,
Toni
