The Admin's Barnstar

Ceradon, I saw your RfA but didn't comment since I wasn't really familiar with you at all. Since then though, I've seen you around a lot, and I've been impressed not only by your willingness to boldly help out in a variety of areas, but by your consistently good judgment and your reliably insightful commentary. Thanks for everything you've been doing since becoming an admin. It's been good seeing you around and having you on the team! Keep up the great work! Swarm ♠ 03:56, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
