The 200 DYK Creation and Expansion Medal | |
| It gives me great pleasure to garland you with this award. Many congratulations are in order, as you have become one of the few Wikipedians to contribute two hundred or more newly created or expanded articles (nearly all of them new, I believe) to the Main page in the "Did you know?" section. You have made a huge impact and are a great asset to the encyclopedia. PumpkinSky talk 22:10, 10 June 2012 (UTC) |

The 100 DYK Medal | |
| It gives me, and all of Wikipedia, great honor to bestow congratulations on the occasion of passing the 100 DYK mark! You have reached this achievement with great distinction, writing a diverse group of well-written and thoroughly-researched articles covering baseball, football, songs and monkeys. Having written articles for opening day pitchers, I know that this is a painstaking task and that the time and effort invested to create such article is extensive. You're at the halfway mark to our top medal at 200, but now that you know the routine and have the experience, the second hundred comes a lot easier. Please accept these congratulations in recognition of your accomplishments. Keep up the great work and keep the new articles coming. Alansohn (talk) 14:35, 16 August 2009 (UTC) |
