@Jhernandez I am copyediting this today. Can you give me the license information for the 3 images in the post? We try to include the title (w/link to the original image when possible), creator, and license with each image.

Also, do you have an image you would like to use for the featured image? Here are the guidelines: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_technical_blog_editorial_guidelines#Images_used_in_your_post

If you don't have an image, I can pick one.

I don't have anything in particular, maybe a screenshot of the ceremony video at some point? With Lea and Birgit? Or something more abstract, whatever you please :)

@Jhernandez thanks! The post is great! I made some changes to grammar/style for consistency. Can you accept these? Then, I can move this over to the blog for publication
