Meetups and conferences are kind of amazing. It's very cool to be able to put faces to so many of the names you've seen on the screen. If you can manage it, you should go to one.
For contributions in so many areas: reverting vandalism, welcoming new users, checking new articles, and in many other ways working to improve and maintain content. --TeaDrinker (talk) 03:16, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

The Working Wikipedian's Barnstar
For your dedicated work onWP:RPP, I award you this shiny silver barnstar! Editors tend to take admins for granted, you can tag an article or report a vandal and trust that an admin will get to it, because there's always an admin ready to take care of the messes we make. I think this is especially true of you.A little insignificantGiving thanks to all that is me 19:14, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for your work on Arbcom, which is a messy, acrimonious, time-draining, soul crushing job. I was one of your biggest detractors going in and one of your biggest fans going out. Although we might have differed on this specific or that, I appreciate your honesty and needed toughness on the committee and thank you for your service to The Project.Carrite (talk) 15:48, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

If all admins and arbs were as sage asthis WP wouldn't need ignoble venues such as Arbcom and RECALL. Every busy admin lives under a Sword of Damocles and when it falls the baby is often thrown out with the bathwater.
