Hoi Pine,
What makes me happy is that scientists are now adding information for their young academy. There are many young scientists organised nationally and internationally and typically they are a member for a set number of years. What makes me really happy is that these orgs are now getting involved; the coverage improves, they are increasincly registered at ORCiD with open/public information.
When scientists take a shine to their Scholia, including their co-authors, papers, doctoral advisor we gain a better understanding about contemporary science. These young academies cover any subject and it prevents a bias in our coverage of science. [1] Thanks, GerardM

Hello colleagues,
I would like to ask for your advice about one issue with the "What's making you happy this week?" emails.
I was hoping that people would frequently comment in the email threads and/or on the talk pages of WMYHTW publications in *The Signpost* to share what is making them happy, in the Wikiverse or elsewhere. However, comments are somewhat rare.
I am concerned that some people may feel too intimidated to comment.
I understand that communicating in public requires courage, but I believe that people who try to be respectful will have their comments received well by the community if they comment in these threads. Perfection is not a requirement for WMYHTW.
Also, I think that public communication becomes easier with practice, and these threads would be good places for people who want to become more experienced with public communication on Wikimedia-l to practice.
Is there something else that you think could be done to facilitate participation in WMYHTW? I would appreciate your advice and input.
Thank you,
