The Barnstars of Diligence (2010)

For dealing with a multiple page history mess at Darth Vader, Anakin Skywalker, and elsewhere. - jc37 19:30, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

I have to award you with a barnstar. Anywhere I go and everywhere I comment, you are present on the page participating in discussions and helping the community tenfold. You've helped me specifically on various situations and conscientiously discussed matters with upmost dedication. I swear you are the best editor I've seen around and I actually hope that one day, possibly in a few years, I could actually be considered half the editor you are. I didn't know which barnstar to get you, but because I have seen you everywhere and noticed you are a workhorse, I think it is fitting to get you the barnstar of diligence.

The Barnstar of Good Humor (2010)

While checking my watchlist this evening i came across the edit summary: "this change brought to you in part by the redundancy department of redundancy" on Kesha. I'm not exactly sure why it made me LOL but it did, so thank you for giving me a good laugh and keeping a good sense of humor. Have a nice evening :) - (CK)Lakeshade - talk2me - 04:45, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

File:Curious cat barnstar medal.png The Curious Cat Barnstar Medal

To All and Singular that shall hear and see these Presents, Xanderliptak sends Greetings! Whereas Xeno has exhibited a great and curious care in resolving a dispute between my self and an unnamed administrator that has taken up the better part of a week, a dispute that nearly compelled the said Xanderliptak to cease contributing to Wikipedia for e'er, and is recognized for as much for these contributions and is to be duly decorated for her actions. Know ye therefore that I do hereby award to Xeno the Curious Cat Barnstar Medal. In testimony whereof I have affixed to these Presents my sign and date.

Your hard work on BLPs in general, and at User:Lar/Liberal Semi specifically, is much appreciated. That page has now been sunsetted (and I hope never to need to bring it back) but the work you did there (whether by bringing articles forward, reviewing them, or protecting them... or even by questioning or criticizing the process!) was of great help to the project. See you in the trenches! ++Lar: t/c 01:50, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

For trying, day after day after day, against all odds, to bring some level of rationality, honor and humor to Talk:Rorschach test, I (by the power invested in me by the State of Incredulity), hereby award Xeno this Sisyphean Barnstar. Keep it up, you're gaining bucketloads of good karma. If I had any skill in graphics, this would be a picture of a guy trying to roll a barnstar up a hill. But I don't, so it's just a comandeered Barnstar of Diligence. Kind of the same thing. --Floquenbeam (talk) 02:04, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

The Barnstars of Integrity

For learning a difficult lesson [and] blocking yourself after realizing you compromised content in order to provoke another editor. It wasn't pretty, but you had the guts to do what no other admin was willing to do: follow procedure and block an editor for disruptive editing. I respect you for performing this admin duty, and I sincerely hope this gives you pause to reflect in the future. Moni3 (talk) 16:50, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

For being damn right amazing at everything, and being unnbelievable friendly to everyone, and for being dangerously admirable at how you are and how you act, annnnd for being damn right amazing at everything; or have I already said that.

The Barnstar of Diligence (2009)

Although you chose to abstain during my RfA, I have to say that I was impressed with your question here, even if I didn't quite answer it to your liking. Its very well thought out and presented; I found it to be the highest quality question in the RfA. I hope other admin candidates will continue to benefit from it. -- Sabre (talk) 21:27, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
