Dweller's thread of the week. It's an 'out of the box' idea.

Dweller's Ref Desk thread of the week award was established in August 2007. It is given on a sort of weekly basis to the Reference Desk thread that I arbitrarily and quite unfairly, deem to be the best.

The award used to be, erm, awarded on Fridays. But since I didn't award it at all from November 2007 until March 2009, when I revived it on a Tuesday, perhaps I shouldn't be so definitive about this. How about "I give it out when I remember." Feel free to leave me annoying reminders on my talk page if I've forgotten for a long time. If you don't, I'll just feel like it's unloved and has no need to exist, which will encourage my base underlying laziness.

Nominations[edit]

Users are welcome to nominate threads, by placing witty messages on my talk page. Flattery, including references to just how funny/appreciated/odd I am will help. As will nominating good threads.

Scoreboard[edit]

Here's a scoreboard that helps track how the various Desks are doing in competition with one another. Given that the criteria by which the awards are made are <ahem> hardly stringent, this is probably meaningless. But I like it. Except it's still quite ugly. Hint hint. It'd be nice to add a flagcrufty icon for each line, for instance.
