Keep up your good anti vandalism work and keep the AIV reports coming in! ·Add§hore· ^{Talk To Me!} 22:35, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

The BLP Barnstar

Your hard work on BLPs in general, and at User:Lar/Liberal Semi specifically, is much appreciated. That page has now been sunsetted (and I hope never to need to bring it back) but the work you did there (whether by bringing articles forward, reviewing them, or protecting them... or even by questioning or criticizing the process!) was of great help to the project. See you in the trenches! ++Lar: t/c 01:49, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

The Wikilink Barnstar

For linking from several hundred species to the authorities who described them.

If you come across any authorities identified only by surname (especially before early C20) who you can't track down, please get in touch. It's a hobby of mine; I think I've only failed once. (I came across Richard Brinsley Hinds because there was a {{dn }} tag on a link to the DAB page Hinds. It took me something like 30 minutes to find his initials, and another 15 to find his given names. I was shocked to discover that he seemed have been forgotten, and at once set about writing the article.) Narky Blert (talk) 10:53, 27 January 2018 (UTC)
