"Seriously, anyone who puts protecting new editors and retaining terrible content above upholding ethical and legal commitments to integrity, accuracy, and protection of a person's reputation is quite simply a massive idiot." – Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales
"Greatest misconception about Wikipedia: We aren't democratic. Our readers edit the entries, but we’re actually quite snobby. The core community appreciates when someone is knowledgeable, and thinks some people are idiots and shouldn’t be writing." – Jimmy Wales; The New York Times, November 18, 2007
"In the real world people who kick over the office furniture and delete all their coworkers' data get fired. In Wikipedia we shower them with the attention they crave, sending an implicit 'up yours' to all the constructive users whose time they have wasted." – Wikipedia editor on the creation of the Troll Support Network.

Welcome to my user page. I'm a male from New Jersey. If you wish to speak with me, please leave a message at the bottom of my talk page.
This user has been on Wikipedia for 18 years and 11 months.
This user is a Browncoat. We've done the impossible, and that makes us mighty.
I've single-handedly written four articles that have been achieved Good Article status, which is the second-highest quality status that can be bestowed upon a Wikipedia article, after Featured Article:
For your reliable camerawork in filming a year of presentations at the New York City Meetups, and for thereby helping spread our conversations to the wider wiki world.--Pharos (talk) 03:08, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
The Barnstar of Peace
The Barnstar of Peace is awarded to users who [are] help[ing] to resolve, peacefully, conflicts on Wikipedia.
This barnstar is awarded to Nightscream, who has the patience of a saint and the bravery of a warrior, in inserting himself into contentious long running arguments. Nightscream is an incredibly valuable asset to Wikipedia. Wikipedia needs to more administrators like him. Ikip (talk) 11:49, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar
For your untiring efforts to prevent insertion of YouTube and blog links to articles about popular culture I present you with this well-armored barnstar. Perhaps this helm of defense will insulate you somewhat from astounding, unexpected and arguable blocks better utilized against those who edit against policy, guideline and pillar. Know that even the purest knights get their armor dented from time to time. BusterD (talk) 01:40, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar
For being as great, all-around editor, who is not afraid to call out editors, IP or not, about their boorish words. Bearian (talk) 19:16, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
The Special Barnstar
Thanks for working with me on the Rick Harrison Page. Pawnstar1965 (talk) 00:37, 9 April 2014 (UTC)

The Real Life Barnstar
I want to give you the Real Life Barnstar for your beautiful and kind comment on User talk:GabrielAmmirata. Thank you for having empathy and compassion for this soul, even if it is a simple message on Wikipedia. It is so nice that editors still remember that there is a person behind each account, in real life, editing Wikipedia for a variety of causes they care about. Thank you.

The Working Man's Barnstar
