User:Teratornis/Barnstars

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This user subpage lists the Barnstars I have given and received. I suppose for balance I should compile all the hate mail I have received. But I don't get a lot of that actually.

Barnstars I have given

[edit]

I list each barnstar under a separate section for its recipient. To-do: give out more barnstars. I've seen lots of users who deserve them, but I have been too lazy to distribute enough yet. Since I tend to have the most interaction with other users on the Help desk, I could distribute {{The Help Desk Barnstar}} to the top posters there. As well as to some new posters.

The Help Desk Barnstar
For taking my suggestion to develop your Wikipedia skills and advance the whole project by volunteering on the Help desk, I award you this barnstar. Plus your Help desk answers are pretty good. I imagine in a few years you will be pretty scary. Teratornis (talk) 18:58, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
The Help Desk Barnstar
For your exceptional work on the Help desk, and teaching me some stuff, I award you this barnstar. --Teratornis (talk) 04:38, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Barnstars I have received

[edit]

These are barnstars and barnstar-like things from my talk page. All but two are in response to my comments on the Help desk, and one of the exceptions is in response to user pages I'm writing in support of my work on the Help desk. (Either it's harder to get recognition for article edits, or perhaps my article edits suck. You be the judge.) It looks like I average about one barnstar per 270 or so edits on the Help desk. Anyone who craves barnstars could take note.

Thanks to all who have recognized my efforts. I probably can't say it better than Sally Field:

A deserved acknowledgement

Wow, I second that, particularly for this. You're good, mate. PeaceNT 06:46, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for answering that question. You gave me an idea, and hopefully thats sorted it. Anyway, that must have been one of the more difficult questions! So, for that, and your other work on the help desk, have a barnstar, and congratulate yourself! Stwalkerster talk review 17:38, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

For this comment:

Your Opinion is More Important than You Think Barnstar
Your comment on the Help Desk regarding inexpediency of omitting details was not only timely, but truly inspiring. For that, this barnstar, the first I've ever given. -- ShinmaWa(talk) 21:14, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
