  The Barnstar of Good Humor
For a particularly self-aware message that brought a smile to my face :). I'm not permitted to judge anyone for not liking change - I work for the Foundation and I do so using Monobook ;p. Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 10:09, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
  The Copyeditor's Barnstar
Thanks for all the copyediting on Indian television related articles, I thought nobody would actually get down to doing it. Farah Desai Khan** (talk) 13:05, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
  The Half Barnstar
Yes, we do disagree on the List of college football head coaches with non-consecutive tenure. Big deal. Be WP:BOLD and speak your mind, just as you did. After all, I'm wrong a lot! And so are others. Continue to speak your mind and make this encyclopedia better every day. We need many more editors just like you.--Paul McDonald (talk) 03:08, 11 October 2012 (UTC)
  The John Farrell doesn't want you to have pie barnstar
I told you last night that I would give you a pie if John Farrell's page wasn't protected when I got back this afternoon. Well, it is, so I'm afraid you'll have to settle for what may be the most bizarre barnstar of all-time. AutomaticStrikeout 19:05, 21 October 2012 (UTC)

Phightins, you passed that with flying colours! I am truly honoured to have adopted you, and yet, now it's your turn to impress me and get going with that knowledge compendium! Rcsprinter (yak) @ 15:58, 24 November 2012 (UTC)

  Project Editor Retention

  The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
Thank you so much for all of your hard work in adopting me. I really learned a lot throughout the process (so much that I am now finally confident enough to run the Education Program course that we have in mind), and I also feel as though I now finally have an editor who I truly trust to go to if I ever have any additional questions. You did an absolutely fantastic job, and I hope that I lived up to your expectations! Jackson Peebles (talk) 04:13, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
  The Helping Hand Barnstar
Wherever I go on Wikipedia, I always come across you helping other people. You make Wikipedia a better place and I think you deserve some more recognition for it. You are awesome! Cheers, — -dainomite   21:02, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

  The Admin's Barnstar
For being such a wonderful Wikipedian (and surprised you aren't an Admin, and thus my barnstar - for inspiration!) and helping out a lot!!! I hope you always continue to work here... BTW can you review this if you have the time??? Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Expeditionary Economics My first baby on WP and hopefully will go on to become an article... Don't bother if you don't have time... And before I forget HAPPY EASTER!!! The Wikimon (talk) 13:43, 31 March 2013 (UTC)

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thanks for contacting Geoff. I suspect our emails to him crossed. FWIW, you have exactly the qualities we need in an admin. Let me know if you ever consider it.

Back in the day, there wasn't a WMF process for dealing with threats of violence and it was left to the community. There were only a small crew of us who would contact law enforcement. It takes courage like yours to keep this place safe.

Here, have the smallest barnstar ever: * Toddst1 (talk) 20:38, 2 April 2013 (UTC) _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

  The Barnstar of Diligence
Thanks for keeping an eye on the Boston Marathon bombings article. It's getting a ton of hits, and I'm glad that diligent editors are there to answer questions and maintain quality. – Quadell (talk) 17:44, 16 April 2013 (UTC)

For your contributions to bring 2012 Hawaii Bowl to Good Article status. Thanks, and keep up the good work! -- Khazar2 (talk) 22:29, 29 May 2013 (UTC)
  Big Time Rush Barnstar
Here is a unique barnstar for helping me with Summer Break Tour. I tricked you into helping me. If you don't like Big Time Rush, too bad. Congratulations, you are now a Rusher (Big Time Rush fan) and you may outright display this on your user page. Thanks again for your help. ~~JHUbal27 01:33, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
  The Content Creativity Barnstar
Well Phightins, you're doing really well out here. I wanted to leave a message of recognition for all the great GA work you do with Penn sport (and other) articles, and also something to say thanks for all the positive comments you gave at my RfA today. It's not hard for me to see you there yourself sometime, and I'll always be happy to nominate if you do. Rcsprinter (talk) @ 22:36, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

  The Barnstar of Diligence
A collaborative environment also needs a willing, hardworking, and commited reviewer and you were just that. Through the multitudes of pings and talkbacks, you helped an article get to GA. I look forward to future works with you . Sportsguy17 (talkcontribssign) 02:22, 11 December 2013 (UTC)

Non-barnstar awards

edit
  Good as gold!
If you've been watching me as I've given out the Golden Editor Award to various recipients, you might have known that it wouldn't be long before I got around to recognizing the merits of my best Wiki–friend playing favorites. Now, I could provide a sizable list of reasons for forcing you to accept this recognition. After all, you're a top–notch content creator, an active adopter and good influence on less experienced editors, a calm and level–headed voice of reason and just an all–around clueful member of the community (in other words, a clear net positive). However, I will not be mentioning any of that. See, I want to be a rogue admin someday and this is cabal practice, with today's drill on giving special favors. So, congratulations on the award. You earned it, but don't tell anyone. AutomaticStrikeout () 16:51, 19 August 2013 (UTC)
 
The Resist Hivethink Award, for... you know... resisting hivethink with this excellent comment. --Cyclopiatalk 19:18, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
