A barnstar from Jimbo!

The Original Barnstar
I've seen the recent blog posts attacking you. I personally investigated the issue. You deserve more than a barnstar for your patience and goodwill in the face of someone viciously insulting and wrong on the facts. Thank you. If that's why you are considering retiring, I hope you'll reconsider. :-) Jimbo Wales (talk) 17:12, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

I want to second what Jimbo says; you're an innocent bystander wounded in an edit war. (The guy may actually issue an apology of some kind, I think.) --Orange Mike | Talk 02:30, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

A Barnstar for You

For your tireless work on the project. Ad Orientem (talk) 22:49, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

Most sensible people do not want to be admins. Among those who do, most probably shouldn't. I've been an admin for a little over a year and you have almost certainly done far more for the project than I have or am likely to. Thanks. -Ad Orientem (talk) 22:49, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for your kind words, they are much appreciated, there's no shortage of work to be done as a lowly minion. Theroadislong (talk) 15:45, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

I thought I had a lot of talk page messages to respond to but reviewing drafts really increases the number of editors who want to have a discussion about their work with you. Thank you for your cordiality, since many people coming to your talk page are new editors, you might be their first contact with another editor on the project. Thanks for any help & guidance you can provide to them. Liz Read! Talk! 23:55, 8 July 2021 (UTC)

Wow! Over 1,000 reviews in a month! That’s incredible! You’ve helped significantly with reducing the AfC backlog. What started as a 4,000+ article backlog is now down to just over 300. The road to eliminating the backlog may be long, but it will be completely worth it! Thanks for you dedication! You’ve earned this! ProClasher97 ~ Have A Question? 01:54, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
