Achievements of the Week time!

I’m actually going to be offline next week, so my guess is we won’t do another post (unless anyone else wants to compile one) for a couple of weeks… so let’s celebrate extra hard here:smiley:

This calls for my favorite wikiGnome-y celebration gif:

Noteworthy Edits That Stood Out:

✯ @Ninox on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Play-Out-Run-(Arcade-Game)&diff=26059945&oldid=25904539

  • Ninox tackled a helpful reformatting here, to get an article with solid advice ready to go live for readers.

✯ @Vishshua on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Apply-Scene-Makeup&diff=26063011&oldid=26062870

  • Vish merged in some helpful steps from two different dups here. A great consolidation of advice so that readers can find it in one place!

✯ @Partiallystars on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Take-Photographs-That-Are-the-Correct-Color&diff=next&oldid=26060747

  • Jules’s edit here is a great example of conscientious patrolling. In order to preserve a super helpful new suggestion, she stopped and took the time to clean it up, rather than rolling it back. Now it provides helpful advice and reads more smoothly!

✯ @KernelPone on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Open-an-Incognito-Window-on-Opera-on-Android&diff=26067667&oldid=26066896

  • KernelPone did a big helpful boosting edit here, to remove a more spammy method and focus it on the most helpful information for readers.

✯ @WF on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Embed-an-Instagram-Post&diff=26077062&oldid=26005112

  • WF did a big refresh edit here to help the topic get back out to date after Instagram redesigns.

✯ @Shannon-Matthews on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Take-Photographs-That-Are-the-Correct-Color&diff=26082563&oldid=26063699

  • Shannon did an expansion edit here to turn a previous step into a whole new section with alternatives and options. Nice to see this already helpful topic grow more!

✯ @XxVxX on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Ride-Expedition-Everest%3A-Legend-of-the-Forbidden-Mountain&diff=26088891&oldid=22357080

  • XxVxX did a bold edit on this theme park topic, to turn the article into a “what to expect” guide for the ride. It’ll no doubt help lots more people now!

✯ Newbie @Mackenzie-wichmann on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Improve-Your-Teenager's-Diet&diff=prev&oldid=26049509

  • Mackenzie dove in with some thorough copyediting here, taking the time to tackle some typos and grammar issues throughout the whole article. It reads much better now!

✯ Newbie @MimiMarquez on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Stop-Thinking-That-Your-Name-Is-Boring&diff=26052650&oldid=25498411

  • Mimi helped move this stub along, fleshing out the steps that were there into something much more helpful. With a bit more editing and some solid references, this one stands a good chance of going live to help readers!

✯ Newbie @Lisa-Carol-Rudisill on https://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Harness-a-Horse&diff=prev&oldid=26059083

  • Lisa put her horse riding experience to great use here, clarifying the common options for readers who might be less familiar with the harness options.
