		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 great contributions! (courtesy of the Wikipedia Editor Retention Project)

User:Eddie891 submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:

AleatoryPonderings has done remarkable work over the past two-ish years and is a model editor who exemplifies the best of the attributes that an editor can bring to the encyclopedia. Whether it's writing bios on Women in Red (such as Katherine Garrison Chapin, which he brought to GA), writing about court cases and literature, filling in major gaps in our coverage, or doing the leg work at WP:WIR, WP:ITN/WP:ITNRD, and WP:AFD, they bring a great team approach to their work that always makes it a pleasure to work with them. He has fast become an invaluable contributor to the encyclopedia. Whitey Schafer, Prise d'Orange, Seneca mission, and Photography in Canada are just a few examples of his remarkable work. Additionally, he is one of the most friendly people on the site, always happy to help other people out-- just look at the stellar work they have put in (with many others) over at Wikipedia:Featured article review/J. K. Rowling/archive1. This nomination was seconded by Ktin and User:Mr Serjeant Buzfuz

		The Writer's Barnstar
		AleatoryPonderings, you've more than earned this barnstar for your amazing work on J.K. Rowling: initiating and continuing your tireless work on the literary analysis section, contributing to the talk page discussions throughout, helping everywhere, generally being extremely impressive! It's a great achievement. Congrats! Victoria (tk) 23:07, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Victoriaearle. I know we clashed at times but please know I hold you and your contributions in nothing but the highest esteem. This was a huge group effort and I was glad to work with you on it. AleatoryPonderings (???) (!!!) 04:29, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks that's very nice. I owe you (and everyone else) a belated apology for being so cranky. It wasn't a clash, it was simply my own frustration at knowing the project required more than I was capable of handling. Sorry about that. Victoria (tk) 15:40, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No apologies necessary! It was a stressful project at times, these are stressful times, and all's well that ends well. Hope to see you around in the literature area in future. AleatoryPonderings (???) (!!!) 16:19, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
