As usual, I am grateful for the volunteer contributors to the most recent issue <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/Archives/2019-05-31> of The Signpost. I was happy to see that Wikimedia Canada <https://ca.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page> and Library and Archives Canada <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Library_and_Archives_Canada> announced a collaboration <https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/glam/2019-June/001596.html>. Thanks to Brooke Storm (WMF Cloud Services) and Bryan Davis (WMF Technical Engagement), I found an amusing xkcd depiction <https://xkcd.com/1319/> of successful task automation and unsuccessful task automation. <https://xkcd.com/1319/> Here are some recent stories that were published by WMF: * Four open design methods we used to improve Wikipedia’s iOS app <https://wikimediafoundation.org/2019/05/28/four-open-design-methods-we-used-to-improve-wikipedias-ios-app/> * With Wikipedia in the classroom, a former student has become the teacher <https://wikimediafoundation.org/2019/05/22/with-wikipedia-in-the-classroom-a-former-student-has-become-the-teacher/> * Wikimedia Foundation announces tenth transparency report <https://wikimediafoundation.org/2019/05/20/wikimedia-foundation-announces-tenth-transparency-report/> * Wikimedia Foundation urges Chinese authorities to lift block of Wikipedia in China <https://wikimediafoundation.org/2019/05/17/wikimedia-foundation-urges-chinese-authorities-to-lift-block-of-wikipedia-in-china/> * MediaWiki is the software that underpins Wikipedia. This conference shows all the other ways it can be used. <https://wikimediafoundation.org/2019/05/01/mediawiki-is-the-software-that-underpins-wikipedia-this-conference-shows-all-the-other-ways-it-can-be-used/> * Wikimedia Argentina and the National University of La Plata partner to promote free knowledge <https://wikimediafoundation.org/2019/04/30/wikimedia-argentina-and-the-national-university-of-la-plata-partner-to-promote-free-knowledge/> The Word of the Day for English Wiktionary on June 2nd was "rubicon". I was familiar with a fictional ship named <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runabout_(Star_Trek)>Rubicon <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runabout_(Star_Trek)> and I guessed that the name referred to a river, which it does <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubicon>, but I did not know that more than one river <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubicon_River_(disambiguation)> is named Rubicon, and I did not know about many other uses for the name <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubicon_(disambiguation)>. Thanks to Wiktionary, I learned that the word "rubicon" (with a lowercase "r") has its own meanings <https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Wiktionary:Word_of_the_day/June_2> and an interesting etymology <https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/rubicon> that refers to the the Italian river as a location of a notable event in history <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossing_the_Rubicon>, and possibly also refers the red color of the river <https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Reconstruction:Proto-Indo-European/h%E2%82%81rewd%CA%B0-> .
