On 31 July 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article History of East Texas State Normal College, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that East Texas State Normal College president Randolph B. Binnion (pictured) asked prospective faculty members whether they danced and whether they belonged to a church? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/History of East Texas State Normal College. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, ), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

I nominate Michael Barera to be Editor of the Week for cumulative contributions since he signed up in 2011. Not only has he made substantive content edits at the English Wikipedia, but his image contributions to Commons have been impressive. Overall, he's been busy in multiple Wiki sites. A contributor to DYK. A good contributor like this is someone we want to retain and encourage to do more, more, more. Michael is one of the politest and most hardworking editors here. His efforts deserve greater recognition.
