I have a soft spot for Wikiquote. I realize that it's a lesser-known project, but I find it interesting. I agree with some quotes more than others, but almost all of them make me think.
"If the mind is to emerge unscathed from this relentless struggle with the unforeseen, two qualities are indispensable: first, an intellect that, even in the darkest hour, retains some glimmerings of the inner light which leads to truth; and second, the courage to follow this faint light wherever it may lead." -- Carl von Clausewitz https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_von_Clausewitz, Prussian general and military theorist
"Live now. Make now always the most precious time. Now will never come again." -- Captain Jean-Luc Picard https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Luc_Picard, in the *Star Trek: The Next Generation *episode "The Inner Light".
What's making you happy this week?

https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T133410 "Deploy TemplateStyles to WMF production" appears to be nearing resolution. Deploying the TemplateStyles extension https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TemplateStyles to Wikimedia wikis should allow us to make wiki markup less cluttered and should give a lot more flexibility to regular users to handle various device sizes and constraints using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). A big thanks to Anomie, Tgr, and others who are helping move this task forward.
