The Barnstar of Diligence

I was going back through several bot-related discussions, some heated up, some less-so, and it struck me just how consistently reasonable, thoughtful, and well-articulated you were, as an editor, as a BAG member, and as a 'crat.

So here's a barnstar for that, because quality deserves recognition. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 19:27, 23 June 2019 (UTC)

It occurred to me yesterday that you are a (perhaps the?) primary maintainer of a staggering number of the project's core technical and administrative processes—and have been for as long as I can remember.
