The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar

I just read this article (from 2015) about a probably fake statement (involving Henry David Thoreau and neckbeards) making the rounds on the internet. Fortunately, as mentioned in that article, you had already spotted and removed it from the Wikipedia article the year before, after diligently checking the sources. Thanks for defending Wikipedia's reliability! HaeB (talk) 05:15, 22 February 2016 (UTC)

		Awarded for efforts in expanding and verifying articles related to COVID-19. Awarded by Cdjp1 (talk) 8 March 2022 (UTC)

		The Helping Hand Barnstar
		I see that the first of the AFD's I recently created has been closed as Keep. I'd like to award you with this barnstar as a gesture of my appreciation for your substantial participation in the AFD's. These were the first AFDs I started, and discussing them with you was certainly an educational experience. I especially appreciate that you took the time to respond to me in detail, as I was a new user, when you could have just as easily dismissed my opinion. 33ABGirl (talk) 14:56, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

		The Chinese Barnstar
		Thank you so much for your work on China and Chinese-related articles, it's an inspiration to me.
