I was happy to read this announcement https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikimedia-l/2019-May/092570.html by Amir regarding improvements for typing in African languages on Wikimedia projects. (I hope that the translation of the subject of this week's email is correct.)
I thought that this https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2019-May/092083.html was an interesting WMF Tech Talk regarding WMF and W3C. I felt that it was encouraging that WMF staff on the call wanted to support the needs and wishes of Wikimedia readers and contributors. Thank you to WMF for publicizing this meeting and for collaborating with W3C.
Thank you to engineering and technical staff who take initiative to respond to problems in a timely and constructive way. Someone who comes to mind is James Forrester, who has endured years of complaints regarding VisualEditor. Over time WMF has polished the tool's rough edges, greatly improved its performance, and added significant functionality. I know that hearing a barrage of complaints can be difficult, such as happens in this video clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBrK7mqceBs from *Star Trek: Deep Space Nine* that is hosted on Youtube. (Yes, another *Star Trek* video. The title of the episode is shown at the start of the video, which is why it displays "Honor Among Thieves".) I appreciate James' calm demeanor, willingness to listen, responsiveness, patience, and perseverance.
What's making you happy this week? You are welcome to comment in any language.
Hello! I'm happy for my group and especially for my friend Tasos Paliouras, who is a teacher at the 4th High School of Saint Dimitrios in Athens, for completing for the third consecutive year voluntarily the educational program of our Wikiclub there. Many congratulations are in order to him and his students, but also to the School Administration for the completion of the educational program. You can see the excellent work of our Wikipedia's little editors on their blogs: https://4gym-ag-dimitr-wikiclub.blogspot.com
