Editor of the Week | |
| Your ongoing efforts to improve the encyclopedia have not gone unnoticed: You have been selected as Editor of the Week, for outstanding content work, specifically related to good article reviews. Thank you for the great contributions! (courtesy of the Wikipedia Editor Retention Project) |
User:Khazar2 submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:
- While Pyrotec's content contributions would be impressive in themselves--including 2 FAs and 10 GAs--this user's most impressive work has been in GA reviews. She/he has the distinction of being one of the three most prolific reviewers in the history of the Good Articles project, having reviewed an astonishing 501 nominations on topics ranging from Dick Turpin to "Amazing Grace" to the International System of Units. In an area of the project that's perpetually backlogged, Pyrotec is a refreshing example of an editor who's always willing to pitch in to critique, improve, and promote the work of others. She/he deserves to be recognized for this multi-year contribution to keeping this project running.

Hi, Pyrotec greetings. I'm grateful that you'd given your precious time on reviewing this article. Though because of certain problems i wasn't able to solve article's issues raised by you. By the way I've renominated it so will you please review it on more time. Thanks again. Any help would be appreciated.--25 CENTS VICTORIOUS ☣ 10:35, 26 January 2014 (UTC)
As an editor of the Propellant article
You may be interested in a proposal to include that article among the 1,000 Wikipedia:Vital articles. The discussion is here. Thewellman (talk) 04:32, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
March 2014 GAN Backlog Drive
It's that time again! Starting on March 1, there will be another GAN Backlog Drive! There will be several changes compared to previous drives:
- This drive will introduce a new component to it; a point system. In a nutshell, older nominations are worth more points than newer nominations. The top 3 participants who have the points will be awarded the Golden, Silver, or Bronze Wikipedia Puzzle Piece Trophy, respectively.
- Unlike the December 2013 Backlog Drive, earning an additional barnstar if you reached your goal has been removed.
- The allowance to have insufficient reviews has been lowered to 2 before being disqualified.
- An exception to the rule that all reviews must be completed before the deadline has been created.
Also, something that I thought I would share with all of you is that we raised $20.88 (USD) for the WMF in the December 2013 drive. It may not sound like a lot but considering that that was raised just because we reviewed articles, I would say that's pretty good! With that success, pledges can be made for the upcoming drive if you wish.
More info regarding the drive and full descriptions regarding the changes to this drive can be found on the the drive page. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a message on the drive talk page.
I look forward to your participation and hope that because of it, some day the backlog will be gone!
