On this, wikiHow’s 14th birthday (!!!), I want to recognize and celebrate some of the rad edits done last week… and all the ones not mentioned but just as rad.  

Thanks to all for helping to make wikiHow better, this week and this year <3

Noteworthy Edits T** hat Stood Out:**

✯ @BetteDavisFan on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Become-an-RN-as-an-LPN&diff=prev&oldid=25861960

  • Tamara tackled some writing cleanup and some accuracy edits on this one, improving how it reads and the quality of advice it provides, both at once.

✯ @Venatrixx on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Refute-Pascal's-Wager&diff=prev&oldid=25867327

  • Venatrixx did some close reading throughout this one and then edited to make it more concise, readable, and correct.

✯ @Calebchiu0827 on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Fix-the-"The-Audio-Service-is-not-running"-Error-Message-on-Windows&diff=prev&oldid=25868786

  • Caleb did some very thorough cleanup throughout this one, formatting the article, cleaning up the writing, and adding tech templates for easier readability.

✯ @Byankno1 on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Map-a-Parking-Lot-in-the-Waze-Map-Editor&diff=prev&oldid=25851695

  • Byankno1 added screenshots to a number of tech topics, including this one, testing and tweaking the articles as he went for any needed updates.

✯ @XxVxX tackled some merging of dup topics: https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Choose-a-Travel-Destination&diff=prev&oldid=25862255

  • V is embracing two personal niches with these edits: putting her wiki skills and her passion for travel to great use for readers. The conscientious merging of duplicate topics is a great way to help readers find all the advice they need on one page.

✯ @Ninox on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Dress-to-Suit-Brown-Hair&diff=prev&oldid=25866922

  • Ninox took a potential NFD here and instead gave it the structure to life as a how-to. It still needs to be expanded before it’s ready for readers, but there’s some solid advice at its core that someone can build upon one day, particularly now that it’s in the how-to format.

✯ @Caeiia on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Make-Karen-Onion-Salad&diff=25854847&oldid=25820064

  • Caeiia completed a thorough copyedit here, helping the writing flow much more smoothly and removing lots of redundancies. It’s much closer to being ready for readers now.

✯ Newbie @Kathleen-Burkhardt on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Set-Up-Homebridge&diff=25843313&oldid=25783150

  • Kathleen tackled a complex codebox formatting job here, fixing up the layout, the code the reader needs to achieve the task, and the actual advice given, as well. 

✯ Newbie @Ann-Hupe on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Make-Haleem-(Minced-Meat)&diff=prev&oldid=25834469

  • Ann tackled a thorough cleanup edit on this recipe, fine-tuning the wording, clarifying details, and fixing up some accuracy concerns throughout.

✯ Newbie @Trying2help on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Make-Someone-Get-You-What-You-Want&diff=prev&oldid=25843202

  • Trying2help’s edits here were super helpful in cleaning up the writing, removing personal references, and focusing the advice on the most helpful and reasonable suggestions.
