Why is this user awesome?

Joeytje50 is the creator of JWB, the amazing browser version of AWB, which is a huge productivity enhancer for so many editors. Thanks to them I always have AWB just a click away and can use it on the go. Their edit count may be relatively low and the proportion of user space edits is by far the highest I've seen for a productive editor, but thanks to the incredible force multiplier that JWB is they may have a larger impact on the project than users with 100 times their edit count.

Approved Approved, number of talk page edits are not a metrics for Merchandise giveaways in any way. The most important is "continually positive impact", which can be measured (for example) by the countless barnstars this user got. --janbery (talk) 21:17, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
What about the countless articles and categories created by this user that have been deleted, or advanced permissions which have been rescinded.--Loriendrew (talk) 23:34, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
