Formatter URL notes: Another form is https://mvp.microsoft.com/en-us/mvp/-$1 (usually seen with a human-readable slug before the hyphen), which redirects to the URL listed above. Also, "en-us" can be replaced with these other language codes: de-DE, en-US, es-ES, fr-FR, it-IT, ja-JP, ko-KR, pt-BR, ru-RU, zh-CN, zh-TW. (Most microsoft.com URLs allow you to remove the language code and let Microsoft decide the language via content negotiation, but that trick doesn't work on either of these URLs for whatever reason.)

Motivation edit

Recipients of a noteworthy award. I scraped the list of IDs into Mix'n'match and it seems we lack entries for the majority of MVPs, so this would help fill a coverage gap. IagoQnsi (talk) 21:24, 19 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
