My #WikipediaYearInReview stats were... unexpected! But fun.

(Okay, maybe visiting the main page is not so unexpected. But the rest kinda surprised me.)

#Wikipedia #wrapped

My team members work behind the scenes to make data features like this come to life. It's cool to contribute to something fun like this! https://www.vice.com/en/article/wikipedia-year-in-review-2025/

Cool

This is how you do it people. I feel like I could have written this article, as it is extremely detailed as to all of the valid reasons why they would want to ban such content from being associated with Nature.

Every journalistic & creative outlet you follow should be publishing something like this…and if not, demand it.

Family cookbooks, filled with handwritten notes, sometimes held together with little more than rubber bands, tell the story of generations of homemakers. Easily lost, they are irreplaceable treasures.

🦃 This #Thanksgiving, celebrate the cultural & family histories on their worn & stained pages ➡️ https://blog.archive.org/2024/09/30/vanishing-culture-preserving-cookbooks/

New profile pic using the #Wikipedia25 puzzle tool!

For Wikipedia's upcoming 25th anniversary celebration, a key part of the iconography is the puzzle piece from the Wikipedia globe. And we've got a sweet tool that will transform images into pixelated versions, with the puzzle piece taking the place of standard pixels. Check it out! https://wikipedia25-puzzle-graphics.toolforge.org/

:fediverse: Dear Fedizens, thank you for blessing our timelines with your alt-texted auroras tonight.

I always know I can get a nice view of night sky events when I’m either geographically or meteorologically not able to see it in person. :blobpopcorn: :blobbigheart:

@valen1 😭

(I'll check it out on my computer sometime! I'm definitely more of a visual person.)
