Since Monday, the #PleiadesGazetteer editorial college has published 21 new and 50 updated place resources, reflecting the work of 9 people. The usual Monday blog post will summarize a full week's worth of such work, but meantime here's a #SneakPeek at one user's contributions over the past few months (and continuing). Since joining the Pleiades team in 2025, Enes Yılandiloğlu has provided 488 new name entries for existing place resources (mostly in Ottoman Turkish, modern Turkish, and pre-19th century English), as well as 9 entirely new place resources.
