[SidharthBansal]

Can anyone from @publiclab/soc update this?

[skilfullycurled]

@SidharthBansal, I'm not in soc (I don't think) but what type of updating are you referring to?

[harshithpabbati]

@SidharthBansal This was already updated right ? And will be updated after next check-in.

[SidharthBansal]

@Harshithpabbati oh sorry. I misread it. It is correct. thanks all

[sashadev-sky]

@skilfullycurled hi! I wrote a research note this week and I mentioned your work to improve PL's checkins :)

I mentioned you then realized that's not your PL account handle - do you have one? You should consider making one; I would love to give you credit!

[skilfullycurled]

@sashadev-sky! I'm bsugar!! This is my comment here. I must not have noticed my own handle because I wasn't expecting my github account on PL.

It's such a great piece. What makes PL "work" is something that I find fascinating to the level of resaerch-able. That was so nice of you to acknowledge me! I didn't know you had implemented the weekly check-in's (which I love!), so for you to include my refinement in the same sentence as your actual invention is really touching and just put me int he best mood to start off the week. Thank you!

[skilfullycurled]

Oh, @sashadev-sky, feel free to "resolve" these comments after you read them. I don't think I have those permissions.

[sashadev-sky]

@skilfullycurled aw that's really sweet!! Glad to include you - listing them here is a great idea.

I just updated this today, which is probably why you didn't see it before. I will update it to use your correct handle right now

[jywarren]

Hi, all! I'm going to briefly unpin this to make space for the Outreachy post, but we'll swap it back in soon. https://github.com/publiclab/plots2/issues/6285

[skilfullycurled]

@jywarren, just be careful, that's actually a load bearing pin. : P

[RuthNjeri]

Hi @skilfullycurled 👋🏾

You could add @Cadreia for the upcoming check-in (80) and @KarenEfereyan for the next one after (81) 🎉 🎉

[cesswairimu]

Upcoming

80th: @Cadreia
81st: @KarenEfereyan

Thanks @RuthNjeri

[ghost]

Waow, I love this initiative by Public Lab. I am definitely going to go through all the previous checkins when I'm less busy. @cesswairimu when exactly is mine due?

[cesswairimu]

Next week's checkin @KarenEfereyan

[ghost]

Next week's checkin @KarenEfereyan

Yes ma'am

[tawahpeggy]

hello @all please i think there has been a mixup with adding recent checK-ins to the check-in list.
there is

• [x] 79. @RuthNjeri : Weekly Community Check-In - Draft Your Outreachy Proposal #8619
• [x] 80. @Cadreia : [publiclab/plots2] Weekly Community Check-In - Outreachy Application (Winter 2020) Ends Soon! (#8676)
• [x] 81. @KarenEfereyan :[publiclab/plots2] Weekly Community Check-In - Do That Which Scares you (#8709)
• [x] 82. @tawahpeggy: [publiclab/plots2] Weekly community Check-In - We Rise By Lifting Others! (#8719)

@skilfullycurled @cess @jywarren please help see into this

[jywarren]

Oh, are we off by one? I reformatted your comment to match the above format. Is that correct now, and shall I copy it up to the top? Thank you @tawahpeggy !!!

[jywarren]

OK, i changed it, how does it look up top now? Thanks again!!!

[tawahpeggy]

thanks for helping out @jywarren theres still some mixup, Audrey and karen has same check-in Titles :smile: . is it possible for me to make the corrections instead of stressing you out over and over?

[ghost]

thanks for helping out @jywarren theres still some mixup, Audrey and karen has same check-in Titles :smile: . is it possible for me to make the corrections instead of stressing you out over and over?

No we didnt. @Cadreia raised an issue around outrrachy applications coming to an end. Kindly refer to the issue numbers

[tawahpeggy]

yep @KarenEfereyan theres a mixup in the check-in list that needs to be corrected .your check-in title is same with @Cadreia

[cesswairimu]

My bad, updated that...Thanks everyone :heart:

[SidharthBansal]

I think it will be a great idea to move a new thread once 100 weekly Community Communications are completed. What do you suggest?

[pydevsg]

Yes, agreed with @SidharthBansal 😅

[cesswairimu]

That would be great @SidharthBansal and @pydevsg...wow! we are 2 check-ins shy of 100 already!

Unpinning this issue for a while to pin the Outreachy welcome issue for the next 1 month. Thanks all

[cesswairimu]

moving this to https://github.com/publiclab/plots2/issues/9600 thanks everyone :heart:
