Volunteer recognition

The approach that I suggested would combine both merit and chance and allow for more people to be recognized more often. I think a process based entirely on voting would be too limiting in the number of people getting recognitions.

There are 100s of people across hundreds of wikis that are worthy of monthly recognition. We need to recognize as many people as possible. This is just a list of Wikipedias There are also hundreds of sister projects with hardworking dedicated volunteers.

I don't see a practical way to recognize this large of a group of volunteers regularly unless we add a lottery component that hurries up the process some. I trying to be practical. :-)
