Tip of the moment...
Getting your edit count

Instead of counting your edits 500 at a time in your contributions list, you could look up your grand total on your Preferences page. Your number of edits is listed under "Basic information", near the top of the page.

To get more details about your edits, try X!Tools's Edit Counter, which tallies up all your edits of each area of Wikipedia, and displays the totals for each and the grand total. It also shows the number of unique pages edited, the average edits per page, number of edits still active, and how many edits have been deleted.

Leroy Chollet

Leroy Chollet (March 5, 1925 – June 10, 1998) was an American professional basketball player. Chollet enrolled at Loyola University New Orleans and led the Loyola Wolf Pack to their first championship. Louisiana schools were segregated at the time; Chollet had an African-American great-grandparent and was pressured into leaving Loyola when this was revealed. He moved to New York and played three seasons for Canisius College. Chollet played for several professional teams, including the Syracuse Nationals. During the inaugural season of the National Basketball Association (NBA), Syracuse reached the 1950 NBA Finals. An ankle injury limited Chollet's second year in the NBA. He married Barbara Knaus and, after retiring from professional basketball in 1952, he moved to her hometown, Lakewood, Ohio. They had three children: Lawrence, Melanie, and David. In Lakewood, Chollet worked on the construction of St. Edward High School and became a teacher and a varsity head coach. (Full article...)

When the Moon is closest, it is at perigee, and it looks slightly bigger from Earth. Perigee is the point at which an object makes its closest approach to the Earth. Often the term is used in a broader sense to define the point in an orbit where an orbiting body is closest to the body it orbits. The opposite is the apogee, the farthest or highest point.
