DYK for Religion in South Ossetia

On 9 April 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Religion in South Ossetia, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the capital of South Ossetia once had more Jews than Ossetians? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Religion in South Ossetia. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Religion in South Ossetia), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Editor of the Week

		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:Generalissima submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:

I would like to nominate Sawyer-mcdonell for Editor of the Week. He is a relatively new user as far as active editing is concerned but has done really high-quality work on religious history topics, with a general but not exclusive interest on Celtic Christianity. Look at Gates of Heaven Synagogue or Melangell to see what I mean. We can all agree that religious history is a sadly under-represented area on-wiki, and we need more great editors like Sawyer to improve it and, in so doing, improve the encyclopedia!

You can copy the following text to your user page to display a user box proclaiming your selection as Editor of the Week:

Sawyer-mcdonell

Editor of the Week for the week beginning April 14, 2024

Although a relatively new user as far as active editing is concerned he has done really high-quality work on religious history topics. His general but not exclusive interest is on the topic of Celtic Christianity. Two examples can be found at Gates of Heaven Synagogue or Melangell. Religious history is sadly under-represented area on-wiki and great editors like Sawyer strive to improve it.

Thanks again for your efforts! Buster Seven Talk (UTC) 13:40, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

My apologies.

I am sorry for going off topic as sometimes I do not pay attention, and I was trying to make it simple for Conservative People's party of Estonia as there is a lot of them.

I am still new here, but I am willing to learn a lot. Also, I added reliable sources that Pramilia Jayapal's sister Susheela is running for congress in 2024. 174.135.36.220 (talk) 02:27, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
