These updates keep getting better. (I left out the board updates from my
recent thanks for regular newsletters lifting all of our boats :)
I realize this is the smallest footnote of a long and significant update,
but: does this mean *3% of donors* who saw a thank-you note inviting them
to edit went on to make an account and at least one unreverted edit? 3% of
all donors is almost as many new editors as we get each year. That's
spectacular, staggering, superb. Let's please see how this scales in
various dimensions.

We heard from the Advancement team about donor thank-you page changes
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Growth/Newcomer_experience_projects#Scaling_the_new_donor_Thank_you_page_to_English_Wikipedia>,
which invited donors to edit and yielded 4,398 new user accounts being
created [8
