In recognition of your work....

[edit]
The Feathered Quill Barnstar
Hardly a day goes by when I don't see another brand new article for a missing entry from New Jersey listed on the National Register of Historic Places. There are several hundred such missing entries and it would be easy to just throw up your hands and move on to other things. In a world where so many people devote their efforts to deleting content, I wanted to extend my appreciation for your relentless efforts to expand this encyclopedia and to take the time to build articles from scratch that only improve Wikipedia, patiently adding one article at a time. I've "thanked" you before for your individual edits, but let this serve as praise for your body of work. Alansohn (talk) 15:12, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Alansohn: Many thanks! I really appreciate this. Zeete (talk) 15:21, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You deserve it. I had been active at DYK years ago, which has sadly fallen off my radar, yet I didn't even thank you for your DYK work. Putting articles on DYK on the front page gives them attention that often helps build new readers and gets new editors working on articles that they would otherwise never have seen. Your body of work at DYK deserves recognition on its own. Alansohn (talk) 15:28, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Alansohn: Thanks again! There's lots of history in New Jersey. Zeete (talk) 15:34, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
