I’m in a sunshine-y mood today - it’s spring-like and warm here at the wikiHaus, I’m preparing for a range of rad and friendly wikiHowians to visit us for the meetup next week, aaand we’ve had some wonderful sunny skies in RC, NAB, and lots of other tools/queues… so: Sunshiney:slight_smile:

Big thanks to all who made wikiHow better last week, and this week!

I can see clearly now on wikiHow

I can see all stormy skies have gone away

Gone are the cloudy skies that had me blind

It’s gonna be a bright, bright sunshiny day.

I think I can make it now the stubs are gone

All of the bad templates have disappeared

Here is the dashboard I’ve been praying for

It’s gonna be a bright, bright sunshiny day.

At the wikiHaus there’s nothing but blue skies!

Can’t wait to meet the friends at the meetup!
