		For overall excellence in copy editing Rock Springs Massacre in March 2007. IvoShandor 13:09, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

		The Editor's Barnstar
		Bestowed upon the unimaginatively named one for consistently responding to requests for copy editing on Rock Springs massacre. Your help was invaluable as my eyes began to bleed and errors were unnoticeable after looking at the article for long enough. The article was promoted to FA yesterday.

		The Working Man's Barnstar
		I give this for two reasons. One, for all the time and effort you put into the FAU article; and two, so I can watch you try to figure out how to fit this onto your user page. Good luck! KnightLago 02:54, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
