You are the hero of the Usian debate. I can't imagine a better resolution. --Jimbo Wales


Oh, some sort of possessiveness about the use of the name 'Britannica' when the material comes from their public domain editions. --MichaelTinkler


Does short story make sense now? --Trimalchio

Yes, now I understand what you're getting at. I'll probably be going through it in a while and making it a bit less colloquial, but on the whole I like it. --Pinkunicorn


There's an old empty subspace of yours over at Pinkunicorn/ToDo. I've been cleaning out 0-length articles from the database in an effort to make the stub finder more useful, can I delete this one? Bryan Derksen, Monday, April 22, 2002

Grey Baskerville has left the building[edit]

After surviving AfDs, Doug Thorley and Magoo are still up, but both could use better sourcing. I'm wondering if you've got back issues of Hot Rod, Car Craft, National Dragster, & the like that would help. Ditto on Jake, Showboat, The Mantaray, Ed Donovan, Donovan hemi, Silhouette, and a few others I've created lately. (Have a look at my userpage under the "Open Vanity" 3&4.) Any help you can be would be very much appreciated. TREKphiler any time you're ready, Uhura 23:21, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Current Events Barnstar[edit]

The Current Events Barnstar
I know this is 18 years late, and you don't go on here all that often anymore, but I think you deserve this barnstar for being the user that brought 9/11 to Wikipedia with this edit. When you made that article it was 10:02 local time; the North Tower was still standing. – John M Wolfson (talkcontribs) 05:46, 2 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]


A 19-year late barnstar for you![edit]

The 9/11 Barnstar
You likely aren't even here anymore, but I don't care, and plus someone has already given you something like this before, but I still don't care. You worked very hard on this: [1]

When you made it, it had been only 3 minutes since the South Tower of the World Trade Center had collapsed, and the North Tower was still burning. That's memorable enough. Hurricanehuron33 (talk) 12:50, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
