Dear Michael, 

Thank you sooo much for moving so quickly to get the word out!

If you have any extra time tomorrow, you might like to also promote a couple of 
the top picks from our ‘Love on the Wikis’ roundup individually, after we have 
announced the roundup itself.

For example, we could feature the Wikipedia article about Love or about 
Valentine’s Day, and/or feature Smallbone’s image of Love’s Messenger, citing 
his moving ‘love letter’ to the Wikipedian collaborator he never met.

Please let us know if we can help propose some copy for any of your upcoming 
posts: Valentine’s Day is one of those days when people seem very open to 
sharing the love :)

I hope you enjoyed this little experiment as much as I did, and look forward to 
a team retrospective at the end of next week, when we’ll have a sense of 
overall impact.

It was a fun collaboration and I’m grateful to everyone who participated.

Have a wonderful weekend!


Fabrice
