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

I nominate LeedsOwl to be Editor of the Week for their contributions to the coverage of local politics in Leeds. Since joining on 4 May 2018, LeedsOwl has diligently increased Wikipedia's coverage of local government elections in the city, including extensive edits on the entry for Leeds City Council. They have focused on the painstaking and unglamorous work of making entries for local elections like the 2010 Leeds City Council election up to and including the 2018 Leeds City Council election, inputting election results data, and improving entries for Leeds politicians such as Judith Blake and Alison Lowe. In under a year they have achieved 1,118 edits, with a 99.7% acceptance rate. This focused and steady work will help make local politics more comprehensible and accessible to the people of LeedsOwl's chosen city.
