The Midwest Book Awards, for which Thayer won first and second places in 2006 and 2010, is not a "meaningless" organization and only a "book distributor": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midwest_Independent_Publishers_Association. Further, the Independent Book Publisher's Association, who gives out the Benjamin Franklin Award, is also not a "book distributor": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_Book_Publishers_Association.If these are "meaningless" awards, then why were they given by organizations for whom there are Wikipedia pages? Is DGG saying that Wikipedia is creating meaningless pages?Steven C. Price 19:02, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
