Editor of the Week
Editor of the Week | ||
Your ongoing efforts to improve the encyclopedia have not gone unnoticed: You have been selected as Editor of the Week in recognition of your article and list creations. Thank you for the great contributions! (courtesy of the Wikipedia Editor Retention Project) |
User:Buster7 submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:
- Editor Dsp13 is a veteran WP editor, based in the UK, who began editing Wikipedia 7 July 2006 and in that time has amassed over 77000 edits with 85% in mainspace by adding humdrum categories - birth and death categories to biographical articles, or year of establishment to publications, schools, companies etc. The impressive list of articles he has initiated (found on his User page) is enormous by all standards. Speaking of lists, he has created many; lists of periodicals, of women writers, of women architects, of elected Members of Parliament and more. I discovered him at Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/Dsp13 List/9 while searching for help in how I might include two of the volumes as references in many biographical articles. Dsp13 has started articles such as Cedar Paul, Robert Leslie Ellis, John Grote, and George Ballard. He has written scripts to match wikipedia pages to library name authority records, the National Register of Archives and the ODNB and has added about 4,000 references (for use by Cambridge alumni), to ACAD, a recent online edition of Venn's Alumni Cantabrigienses.
You can copy the following text to your user page to display a user box proclaiming your selection as Editor of the Week:

Thanks again for your efforts! ―Buster7 ☎ 09:03, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
Wow, thank you!! What a lovely honour. Thank you for organizing this Editor of the Week thing. Dsp13 (talk)
