Todd, since you credit yourself as a collaborative creator of a world-historic educational work, what are some of the articles you have created or greatly contributed to? Or is it that you derive your credit from administrative work and blocking others, if so what are your most notable administrative achievements or are some of the bad Wikipedia participants you have blocked?

Well, let's not forget the big picture.
For all the bickering and squabbling it might have entailed, for all the stumbles that might have happened in the process, the lot of us have created the largest and probably most significant educational work in the history of the world. And we've done it in a not for profit and freely shared fashion.
I think that's damned cool and I think it's something to be very proud of.

Perhaps a bit early of the roundup of the Wikidata Menu Challenge, but I think it is cool so I'll share it already. Some stats (thanks to André Costa for collecting it) on the 300 items in the challenge:
Month of the challenge (and a few days afterwards) (2015-05-08 - 2015-06-08): { "users": 183, "bytes_added": 1832120, "edits": 9057 }
