Thank you for your efforts in helping me improve USS Connecticut (BB-18) to FA-status. I honestly don't believe that I would have gotten it there without you. I don't know how else to say this, but "thank you thank you thank you ad infinitum". :) —Ed 17(Talk / Contribs) 20:32, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
I hereby bestow this honor to you on the occasion of crossing the 50 DYK mark. Your efforts to create quality articles on military and passenger ships and submarines is greatly appreciated and has been a beneficial addition to Wikipedia's coverage of the topic. Best wishes on your achievements to date and keep up the great work. 100 is not too far away and the second 50 articles are much easier than the first 50. Congratulations!

It gives me great joy to award this Imperial Napoleonic triple crown to Bellhalla for exceptional mainspace contributions to 5 (in this case, 9) pages in the area of WP:DYK, WP:GA, and WP:FC. Thank you very much for your generous time and diligence on behalf of the project. You are a Napoleon among editors. Yours, Cirt (talk) 06:27, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
Your Imperial Napoleonic Majesty, outstanding work! Especially on USS Orizaba (ID-1536) - well-written, great contribution to the topic on a historic issue that adds encyclopedic value, and this is certainly reflected in the support earned during its FAC, good work. Cirt (talk) 06:27, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
I have reviewed these articles. Since they are so similar I just looked them all over at the same time, all passed. You don't seem to be one to display awards, but recognition is appropriate for 3 simultaneous GAs nonetheless. Good job!
For placing first in the Monthly Military History Writing Contest with 143 points, I am delighted to award you another set of WikiChevrons. Cam(Chat) 06:50, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
You know, I had to check all of those...then count up the points... :D Nice work! —Ed17(Talk / Contribs) 16:08, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

For answering the call to copyedit the article Montana class battleship during the article's FAC I herby present you with The Copyeditor's Barnstar. Sorry for the long delay in getting this hard earned barnstar to you, I have been otherwise occupied with both on wiki work and real life work. TomStar81 (Talk) 08:15, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for the copy edit. I will see about adressing your concerns as I am able to (right now the sourcing complaints are my biggest concern). I apreciate the rapid response to the request, it was just in the nick of time.
The Editor's Barnstar
For copyeditting the article Montana class battleship I herby present you with The Editor's Barnstar. Given that my sp&g suck, I can only imagine what you found in that twilight zone. TomStar81 (Talk) 23:54, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
You've helped out with what you can when you can, and that has made all the difference :) Thanks for the info about navsource, I have always considered the site reliable, but the FAC-based precedents for reliability you cited is a huge help. Take care, and thanks for the assist. TomStar81 (Talk) 20:03, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
I Simply have to give my compliments for SS Kroonland, an article you just created. It was a very nice looking and informative article, which i definitely enjoyed reading. Thanks for making my new page patrol such a pleasant one :). Excirial (Talk,Contribs) 14:33, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
After reading though your editing history a little more i simply cannot say that i just liked that single article.

In recognition of your amazing copyedit performed on USS Texas (BB-35), I hereby award you this small token of my appreciation. -MBK004 02:55, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
Thanks a bunch for that. I've left a note on TomStar81's talk page informing him of the results since we collaborated on the article and the reference issues you brought up stem from his expansion of the article, (I used the citation templates, he didn't). Also, look for this article going to A-Class review and FAC possibly during the summer. -MBK004 02:55, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
To all of the excellent editors who were part of the Karanacs-led collaboration to bring Ima Hogg to featured status, it was a pleasure working with you on such a fine article about a great lady. Thank you so much for your contribution to this fun collaboration.
Thanks for your help in getting the good ship SS Christopher Columbus to Featured Article status. The nomination went swimmingly, it was clear sailing all the way, no one turned up to torpedo it, and she passed easily.
that's the ticket!
Good comments AND good fixes... thanks very much for your input and help! ++Lar: t/c 22:31, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
The quality and volume of your work for WP:SHIPS is astonishing. You do everything, from writing articles to all the organizational gnome work that is so dear to my heart—and you do it all with good judgement and impressive accuracy. You've made a great impact on the project in your few months here, and I hope we can keep you around for a long time to come. Maralia (talk) 16:57, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
