User:Gog the Mild/Awards

As another editor has noted, an awards page is a bit of a vanity project. But moving my awards here reduces clutter. Nonetheless, if anyone would like to leave me an award, please do so on my talk page. Also, feel free to check if I have a barnstar for a similar reason. Any barnstar will cause me to walk around with a big grin for a week, but I like to have some variety to pretend I'm well-rounded. Thanks.

Below are the awards others have seen fit to present to me for my contributions to Wikipedia.

January 2018 GOCE barnstars

A year ago, you were recipient no. 1894 of Precious, a prize of QAI! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:41, 4 April 2019 (UTC)

May 2018 GOCE drive bling
Thanks for helping to bring the copy edit backlog to a new all-time low! – Reidgreg (talk) 17:03, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

For your help
The triple-DYK had views of 15,610 (7,646 + 4,140 + 3,824) and is currently ranked No. 2 for June 2018 (though I expect that to fall; the number might be discounted slightly from today's views so unsure if it will earn a permanent place on the 15,000-view list). The two smaller articles account for more than half of the page views, so they really made a difference with the relatively dry hook. Again, much thanks! – Reidgreg (talk) 15:59, 20 June 2018 (UTC)

A kitten for you!
Thanks.

Editor of the Week
User:Buster7 submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:
 * Gog the Mild displays his multi-faceted nature as a Guild of Copy Editors member, a WikiGnome, and a WikiProject Military History member. He has been a Wikipedian for 5 years and one month but most recently has accelerated his editing activity (JAN2018). 55% of his 20.000 edits are to mainspace. Gog is considered by many as a kind and cooperative cohort that gives proper feedback. His many GA's, FA's and  DYK's display "outstanding" maintenance work and copy editing (See Chevauchée of Edward III (1346) (GA), Gascon campaign of 1345 (FA), Battle of Bergerac (FA) or Siege of Berwick (1333) (FA). In his effort "...to keep Wikipedia neat and tidy" Gog often rescues sources and tags dead links within Wikipedia articles. He considers himself a blunt talker but only so that he can "move on" to the next task.

March 2020 GOCE drive bling
Here's another for the collection! Thanks for helping to reduce the copy-editing backlog by 75% in one month! – Reidgreg (talk) 21:43, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

Fresh Darjeeling tea for you
 Drat8sub (talk) has asked you to join them for a nice cup of tea and sit down here. ''Well, if you remember, we were struggling with some FIFA links, guess what !! Those links were properly archived actually. I don't know why those were not displaying that time as acting as dead link. But yesterday when I was checking it was showing archived though with some different structures. So thanks for those archives and being there to help, were important links. Let's have a fresh cup of tea, hope you will enjoy it.''

WikiCup Awards

Editor of the Week
User:Buster7 submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:
 * It is my pleasure to nominate Gog The Mild to receive his second Editor of the Week Award. Gog last received this award in July 2019. The scale and quality of his contributions justify a renewed recognition. It boggles the mind how many interests and topics he works on. But what I noticed was he is a fellow "Awarder". I often find him giving his self-created Appreciation Medals to fellow editors. A look at his User Contributions shows an editor constantly reaching out to fellow contributors with words (and awards) of encouragement. This award finds him in the midst of doing some volunteer work "helping a group of university students learn how to use Wikipedia". Gog signed up in 2014 but really got busy in JAN of 2018. His amazing efforts are to long to mention: take a look at his lists of promoted articles and draft main page blurbs (and, especially, its archive}, and tell me you are not impressed. He contributes to WP:DYK and 2 projects:Featured article candidates and Military History and is a coordinator at both. He finished in second place in the 2020 Military Historian of the Year Award. Of his over 50,000 edits, 21,000 are in MainSpace. He has promoted 32 Featured Articles and 81 Good Articles. Editors have acknowledged being the grateful recipients of his tactful, honest and knowledgeable advice. On top of all that, Gog is a frequent participant in the WikiCup. Thank you Gog the Mild for all you do to make this workplace pleasurable. This award was seconded by and.

Thanks again for your efforts! &#8213; Buster7  &#9742;   15:03, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
