Hi all,
I am happy this week because a Wikimedian from Africa, Felix Nartey was named Wikipedian of the Year 2017 in Montreal.
What's making you happy this week?
Regards,
Isaac
Hi all,
I am excited for being awarded the Wikipedian of the year!
The amazing Wikimania video from South Africa tells me the wiki world will be blown by what Africa has to offer in 2018. More grease to your elbow, organizers of Wikimania 2018!
I am also very delighted about the response of the L2K and the ripple effect of the L2K in the movement.
Cheers,

Hi Felix, I was very happy when I saw you announced as the Wikipedian of the Year. I think you are a great choice.
This week I am also happy that Foundation staff are increasing their engagement with the community.
Last week I was happy that the automatic speech recognition for pronunciation assessment project can now predict intelligibility with greater than 97% agreement with Amazon Mechanical Turkers, for both words and phrases, and I'm still thrilled about that. I hope we can convince the Wiktionary projects to adopt for intelligibility remediation. I hope if a bunch of different developers customize the javascript for it, then the Wiktionary community will probably like at least one.
Also I am happy that Doc James is back on the Foundation board.
Best regards, Jim

(in the spirit of WP:WOTTA https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WTF%3F_OMG!_TMD_TLA._ARG! ;), I'd like to clarify that L2K most likely refers to the "Letter to Katherine" sent on April 1 by the Wiki Indaba participants. The letter and Katherine's response from a week ago are available on meta https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiIndaba_conference_2017/Letter_to_Katherine_(L2K) )
