*Between the Brackets* Yaron Koren produced a 30 minute digest of previous episodes of this podcast. Much of the episode will be understandable by people who are not developers but are familiar with how MediaWiki works. I enjoyed listening to this: https://betweenthebrackets.libsyn.com/episode-8-btb-digest-1

There will be a Project Showcase video meeting on June 14. *Reports from Wikimedia Conference 2018 participants* I especially appreciated this detailed report from Peaceray and Joe Mabel which mentions a wide range of subjects including Structured Data on Commons, Learning Days, possible ways to incorporate more diverse citations into Wikipedia, lightning talks, libraries and partnerships, and general thoughts about the conference: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Cascadia_Wikimedians/2018_Wikimedia_Conference_report. Conference reports are currently available in English, Thai, French, Ukrainian, Latvian, German, and Polish: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Conference_2018/Further_reports. *Report from the Wikimedia Conference 2018 Strategy Track* Significant good-faith effort appears to be invested in the strategy process: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Conference_2018/Documentation/Movement_Strategy_track What's making you happy this week?
