Awww Man, I don't know what to say TO. That is one of the nicest, coolest things I have ever seen. Thank you. I am truly honored and humbled by this. ;) — Ched :  ?  01:42, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
Nah, don't be. You deserved it. I especially appreciated your exceptional copy-edit today. TechOutsider (talkcontribs) 02:17, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
That's the coolest barnstar I've yet seen :D Huntster (t@c) 03:16, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Yea, I gotta admit, I'm pretty flabergasted here. It does make being here very rewarding, to say the least. ;) — Ched :  ?  03:37, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
What did you think it was initially, judging from the thumbnail and the heading of my post? TechOutsider (talkcontribs) 16:15, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
I wasn't sure, and clicked on the pic right away - then I just sat there stunned. Just totally amazed me. ;-) — Ched :  ?  19:20, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Hey, no problem Dave, just didn't want to see it turn ugly. I know it can get frustrating dealing with stubborn new editors at times. It's like raising kids all over again .. lol. Cheers and best buddy. — Ched :  ?  19:38, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

Wow .. thank you RD. This is definitely one that I'll treasure dearly. And to be honest, I've tried to gain some improvement in my efforts due in no small part to your excellent examples here. Thanks again, Cheers and best. :) — Ched :  ?  23:14, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
You're welcome. I don't give barnstars lightly (I hardly give them ever); but the message struck me as worthy of recognition. cheers, Rd232 talk 03:39, 30 May 2011 (UTC)


Barnstar edit

  The Barnstar of Diplomacy
Awarded for debating a difficult and divisive topic with intelligence, class, and civility, and being part of the solution, rather than the problem. JN466 21:34, 17 June 2011 (UTC)

Well done edit

  The Random Diplomat Award
I hereby bestow upon you this Random Diplomat Award. was chosen to represent this high office by virtue of the facts that (a) her image is public domain, (b) she doesn't look mean, (c) she's facing right, and (d) she reproduces well in miniature.

You, by contrast, were chosen with great precision to receive the reward, in honor of your diplomacy and friendliness in dealing with Kimo Williams. I think it's important to put a good face on Wikipedia for everyone, and I admire the way you approached it. Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:35, 15 December 2011 (UTC)

I'm watching his page in case he decides to verify license, but I have to admit there's a chance I'll overlook it. I'm not on as often as I'd like to be in this account. :) If you happen to see him leaving notes or questions that I can help with, please let me know. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:36, 15 December 2011 (UTC)
awwww .. thank you so much MRG ... you are so da-gone sweet. :-) — Ched :  ?  18:46, 15 December 2011 (UTC)


A barnstar for you! edit

  The Teamwork Barnstar
Right back at you, sir! Legion of Super-Heroes has quite a history, eh? LonerXL (talk) 04:46, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
Why thank you LonerXL, I am honored and grateful. To be honest I don't recall putting a tremendous amount of work into those articles on-wiki, but perhaps this will nudge me to do so. I do recall having a rather large text file trying to sort out the history. I was a faithful reader in the 60s and even through a fair part of the 70s, but when my daughter was born (81), I missed out on so much of that "Crisis" stuff, which is so essential to understanding the current iteration. It's been ages since I received one of these, hopefully I can earn it in the near future. :-) Best always — Ched (talk) 16:39, 1 April 2021 (UTC)

Thank you so very much edit

I wanted to reinforce that all that work you did with supporting information for SarahSV's obituary did not go to waste at all. I'm glad someone else had the presence of mind to link directly to that page, but it certainly informed a lot of what I wrote, and it is interwoven into the body of the article by many of the contributors. I really appreciate you jumping in, it has made everyone's work easier - and you did a fantastic job of it. Risker (talk) 02:45, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

Awww dang. Thank you so very much for that Risker. It's so nice to be appreciated. Actually, you are the one who deserves the kudos here for getting this whole thing off the ground. Your kindness is boundless, and I feel honored to be a part of it. It's a bit difficult because of the circumstances, but I picture Sarah looking down with a big smile and that makes it easier. You have no idea how much I appreciate you taking the time to drop by to say those wonderful things. Thank you so very much. Now I have to go get something out of my eye. :-) — Ched (talk) 03:07, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
