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

Before one can even think about expanding content, you have to find your sources. User Bsoyka is a name you can find all over the archives of the resource request page, helping connect editors to the sources they need to improve content. (I count 131 "Bsoyka"s at /Archive 174 alone.) He also writes content, on topics as varied as a museum (WP:GLAM!), a gorgeous monument, and a World War II veteran. His bot fixes erroneous links to The Wikipedia Library, making it possible for readers to fact-check our sources for themselves. He helps answer questions from the next generation of Wikipedia editors through the Growth Team's mentorship program. We all know how tricky and demanding it is to get started as an editor, and I am sure his mentees sincerely appreciate his friendly, helpful and constructive demeanor. All in all, I'd say Ben is pretty deserving of a moment in the spotlight. AstonishingTunesAdmirer and TechnoSquirrel69 seconded this nomination.
