While splitting them makes sense on its face, once you get into the technicalities it falls apart rather fast. Primarily for two reasons that are also the same; one, it’d take up too much space on the main page, & in order to make them fit we would have to shrink them, thus cheapening the rewards EotM are given. Two, having two “Editor of the Month”s at the same time means that it isn’t an exclusive title, it is easier to get, it’s cheaper, it’s less valuable, less important. Basically both of those points come into one; you don’t want to lower the value of EotM by bifurcating it. While I would be happy to change it up, perhaps we could make a Board where normal users could nominate & vote on EotMs each month well in advance, we 100% should not have two at once. Both to avoid cheapening the title & also because we are one Wiki & we should not feel like we are all segregated into compartments when it comes to social titles.
