Hey hey wikiFriends -  I want to take a minute to celebrate the progress made on our mission last week! Great edits, big and small, moving us forward… kudos to you all:slight_smile:

PS If you haven’t yet, check out this thread  about anniversary/holiday cards, too!

Noteworthy Edits That Stood Out:

✯ @Hailey on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Find-the-Red-Hound-in-Rush-Down-Gumby-4%3A-Blaze&diff=25543641&oldid=25540508

  • Hailey did a nice boost that cleaned up this promising topic and allowed it go live. It sometimes just takes that little bit of extra editing love to get an article out there for readers, and Hailey provided that here.

✯ @Awesome-Aasim on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Do-a-Group-FaceTime&diff=25549637&oldid=25369820

  • Aasim tackled an update to bring this topic up to date after the recent iOS release. iPhone users will no doubt appreciate the new ways to chat as a group more easily.

✯ @TaterBoi on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Shoot-a-Nerf-Gun-Accurately&diff=25555909&oldid=25516046

  • TaterBoi dove in on this article to offer some weaponry specifics and advice for newbies, and to remove some unnecessary and repetitive tips. A nice cleanup that helps the topic get closer to being ready for readers.

✯ @T.-Chinsen on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Make-a-Colorful-Heart-Pillow&diff=prev&oldid=25561652

  • T clarified some important details and added some creative suggestions to help this article along. It’s a simple craft but in much better shape now.

✯ @Donagan and @Byankno1 on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Visit-Disneyland&diff=25561703&oldid=25437486

  • Another great Disney collaboration here. One Disney enthusiast with an impressive memory for details who has a wealth of travel tips to share, and another Disney enthusiast with a love of language and a skill for making steps flow very smoothly… the combination is powerful!

✯ @TheArtsPerson on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Make-Cream-Cookies&diff=25561085&oldid=25560905

  • TheArtsPerson dove in on this one with a thorough reformat. The recipe is much easier to read now, and with a few more tweaks, ready for readers.

✯ @Aesthetically on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Travel-to-Denmark&diff=prev&oldid=25566561

  • Chris spotted an added comment that provided good information but didn’t intregrate it into the article in our usual wiki style. Rather than reverting it, they took the time to fix it up and clean up the rest of the article, too.

✯ @R2_d2000 on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Contact-Yelp&diff=25573565&oldid=25251278

  • R2 did a big and through expansion here to turn an outdated stub into a helpful, updated multi-method guide for readers looking for Yelp help.

✯ @Blizzerand on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Use-Ultrasonic-Sensors-in-Arduino-Project&diff=25575114&oldid=25574681

  • Blizzerand did a helpful boosting edit here for one of the student projects. It required quite a bit of formatting and cleanup, but their editing helped get it ready for readers.

✯ @Shannon-Matthews on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Make-an-Elegant-No‐Sew-Fabric-Ball-Christmas-Ornament&diff=25576202&oldid=24428759

  • Shannon returned to an older article of his to add some more helpful guidance and details… just in time for holiday crafters to follow along as they prep for Christmas!

✯ @Harvey0905 on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Grow-Plants-in-a-Greenhouse&diff=prev&oldid=25579686

  • Harvey dove in to add new advice to this stub based on his gardening expertise. While he was at it, he formatted the steps and improved the readability and wording throughout. 

✯ Newbie @Andrea-Landaker on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Dress-Modestly-for-a-Mormon-Church-(for-Females)&diff=25561528&oldid=25533893

  • Andrea spotted an article where some trolly vandalism had slipped through; she took a significant amount of time and effort cleaning it all up, and the result looks even more helpful than the original.

✯ Newbie @Crystal-1 on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Choose-Where-to-Plant-Trees&diff=prev&oldid=25539204

  • Crystal jumped in to editing from article pages and the Topic Greenhouse. Their edits ranged from small additions to very thorough cleanup/copyedits. This one stood out because it added a really crucial missing point for readers; now the guide is much more complete in addressing the factors they have to consider before planting trees.

✯ Newbie @Teryk-Morris on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Use-and-Read-a-Telescoping-Gage&diff=25540570&oldid=21303858

  • Terry tackled a thorough re-edit of this technical topic, clarifying the advice and moving around images to help readers get started with this measurement tool. 

✯ Newbie @Recneps-Halle on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Max-Your-Car's-Horsepower&diff=25555824&oldid=25237951

  • Recneps-Halle dove in and put their mechanic expertise to good use to clarify some misconceptions and over-simplifications on this car topic.
