Things people communicated

The Barnstar of Diligence
I want to express my sincere thanks for your work in bringing attention to Larry Sanger's conduct.

One comment in that discussion noted how "all he has done is try to start a right-wing/conservative pressure group within Wikipedia not to improve articles on topics that may be under-represented" but instead to "rewrite polices and guidelines to his political bent". I had similar concerns with my own interaction with him, and why I found that comment particularly resonant.

It is disappointing when someone with such a significant role in Wikipedia's history appear to shift away from the principles of neutrality and reliable sourcing. Your actions helped the community have an important conversation about maintaining those standards.

I am grateful that there are editors like you and you truly deserve this barnstar and my sincere appreciation. ⭐🙏JaredMcKenzie (talk) 15:36, 24 July 2026 (UTC)
