Cleanup script

Hi Minorax! For the script (I assume it's a script?) that you ran on Wikimedia Foundation Bulletin/2025/3 and previous Bulletins, in future could you retain the double-spacing between sections? It's intentional that there are full breaks between each part of the Bulletin. Best, RAdimer-WMF (talk) 20:16, 24 February 2025 (UTC)

Okay, thanks for informing :) --Min☠︎rax^«¦talk¦» 02:53, 25 February 2025 (UTC)
