P.S. Do people like these "What's making you
happy this week" emails? Few
people respond to them, so I don't know whether people like them, feel that
they are a nuisance, or are indifferent. If you would like to share
feedback, you can email me off-list or leave a message on my Meta talk page
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Pine>. If you like these threads
then you are welcome to contribute your own Wikimedia-related good news to
them, which I would be glad to read.
I like them and on the whole are informative. <grumpy> It makes a
change to read positive messages which have content, as most other
positive messages tend to be pile on congratulations-spam, which can
be pretty irritating if they make your email ping ten times in the
same day. </grumpy>
What's making me happy this week is finding my upload project stopped
by getting IP blocked by the Library of Congress, but then discovering
their rather good improvements to making all records publicly
available in JSON format, in turn making the upload project give
better results on Commons.[1]
