- This seems like a fun thing, I thought I'd give it a try. It should be said that this hasn't all gone live yet; the featured picture will appear on 8 May and the selected anniversary will appear on 14 May. If all goes well, that is. Lampman (talk) 10:04, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
- Congrats! Your nomination has been verified. You'll be awarded on or shortly after May 14. I think User:TonyTheTiger may be getting one in a couple days, if he gets around to nominating himself. ɳorɑfʈ Talk! 02:42, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
- Well it won't happen now. The OTD just went up, but the FP didn't because of some power-tripping admin who replaced it. Now it won't go up until his birthday, which is in January... Lampman (talk) 00:31, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
- That's okay. Read WP:DGAF and be cool. We'll leave the nomination up, as it isn't crowded in here. Remind me in Jan if I forget! ɳorɑfʈ Talk! 01:08, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
- Ok, finally. Still not exactly crowded in here, but I guess that makes it a more exclusive award! Lampman (talk) 11:59, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Reviewing
Anybody may help in reviewing the nominations. If you would like to actively participate, you may add this page to your watchlist and follow the reviewing instructions below. Although you can nominate yourself to the list above, you should not be the final arbiter for nominations of your own editorial work or your own nominations.
Instructions
- If you review and the award is not applicable, remove the nomination and notify the user via their talk page that the nomination failed; don't forget to explain why and to encourage them to try again later when they feel they've done it right.
- Did the editor make the very first encyclopedic content edit for each article? This partially satisfies the requirements for FA, ITN, DTK, and OTD.
- If the editor did not make the very first encyclopedic content edit for one or more of the above articles:
- In the case of FA, did the editor significantly improve and nominate it? (Look at the FAC discussion and the article history.)
- In the case of ITN, did the editor substantially update and nominate it?
- In the case of DYK, did the editor expand it fivefold, and was the editor credited with the DYK entry? (Check to see if the editor was involved in the DYK nomination by reviewing his/her user contributions. This can be done as follows: Go to the user contribution history. Click on older. The URL should now contain a YYYYMMDDHHMMSS format time for the newest contribution on that page. Change the date to a proper date to look for the DYK info. Then search for "Did You" or something like that. The author may not have been involved in the nomination, but may have been credited nonetheless so check his/her user talk page the same way if you do not find nomination involvement.)
- Did the editor nominate a Featured Picture which was displayed on the main page? (Check the WP:POTD archives on the date in question.)
- If you review and the award is applicable, remove the nomination from this page and notify the user at their talk with the following template under a new section titled "Golden W Award": {{subst:User:Noraft/Golden W Award/Message}} which produces:

OTD: Chicago Board of Trade Building [6]
FP: Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/20070616 Chris Young visits Wrigley (4).JPG
- N.B.: The above nomination is actually a faulty nomination. The award honors appearances on the main page. At that time, User:TonyTheTiger had already achieved 8 WP:TFAs, but First inauguration of Barack Obama would not make the main page until January 20, 2013. Tony was the nominator of three of the eight. The eight were, alphabetically, Campbell's Soup Cans (May 10, 2007, nom/FAC), Chicago Board of Trade Building (June 18, 2008 —/FAC), Cloud Gate (February 9, 2010 —/FAC), Jay Pritzker Pavilion (April 3, 2010 —/FAC), Prairie Avenue (December 27, 2009 nom/FAC), Richard Cordray (January 2, 2009 —/FAC), Saxbe fix (March 6, 2009 —/FAC), and Tyrone Wheatley (October 4, 2008, nom/FAC).
- N.B.: The above nomination is doubly faulty for a malformed ITN nomination, which was misplaced at P:CE. I believe my ruling today on a nomination like this by another would be that the malformed edit qualifies as editorial initiative of starting the nomination although it got moved. When this Award process begins to get more traffic, we can revisit this nomination.
- N.B.: Swapping in earliest DYK nom and archive for use in table that will probably be used as the display once other editors are recognized.
