Awesome job, everyone! Keep rockin’
Unfortunately I don’t have any highlights this week, but I might have some next week (if you guys aren’t too busy with the meetup that I wish I could go to!).
All you people are awesome and I’m proud to be the same species as you!
Thank you for noticing and posting, Anna. Good job, everybody!

Aww, shoot! Only 10 tip patrols under for 1000 in one week! I didn’t spot when the new week started on wikihow as I’m in a different time zone. Something to aim for this week any how! ( yes, I am shamelessly looking for sympathy!) ; )

^^ Shameless sympathy given ^^
More shameless sympathy to Andrea Thompson!
Andrea - I can already tell that you are going to fit in quite well here
Congrats everyone on these milestones. Since Anna and Krystle are busy with Wikimania preparations I doubt they will have time to give us an update of new amazing edits for this week. So double kudos for everyone!
