 ## Patlet
 
-After an inner source contribution, it's important to thank the contributor for their time and effort.
-This pattern gives guidance that not only effectively acknowledges the contribution but also engenders further engagement from the contributor and others.
+When you receive an InnerSource contribution, it's important to thank the contributor for their time and effort.
+Extending your gratiutude not only effectively acknowledges the contribution but also engenders further engagement from the contributor and others.
+Praising contributors' positive contributions to your InnerSource project motivates those contributors (and their managers) to continue investing in the effort.
 
 ## Problem
 
-How can we properly express our gratitude to a contributor for their inner source contribution to a project?
-It can be easy to forget to do so or not know the words or medium to use for adequate effect and sincerity.
-Praise and thanks are easy, affordable ways to keep contributors and their managers motivated and excited to continue.
-A pattern in this area makes it easy to do and ensures that the message comes across clearly and sincerely.

+It also makes us less likely to forget to praise our contributors, which is unfortunately too easy to do.

 ## Resulting Context
 
-Feedback like this leaves the contributor with a fantastic feeling and ready to come back for more.
+Feedback like this leaves the contributor with a fantastic feeling and ready to re-engage in the project.
 Combining **both** forms of thanks gives them recognition in front of their peers (breadth) and in front of their direct manager (depth).
 There's a subtle encouragement for those peers in chat to consider contributing themselves and for that manager to look for appropriate circumstances to encourage their other direct reports to do the same.
-Additionally, awareness of the inner source project spreads to the manager, who may have previously not known of the team's use and involvement with it.

 Make sure that your words stem from the sincere thanks that you feel inside for what they've done.
 Keep the level and verbosity of praise appropriate to their level of involvement.
 Overdoing it may feel insincere and mechanical and defeat your purpose in reaching out.
