In addition to the impressive effort the community put forth to defend the wiki this weekend, lots of folks were around doing some rad regular editing last week. Let’s celebrate not only keeping quality on existing articles through all that careful reverting/patrolling, but also upping quality on these pages and others, edit by edit!

Cheers to all the wikiHowians and wikiHowian types out there:
