Receive this symbolic medal as a token of gratitude for the excelent work done in articles related to Byzantine history. Today the feature article of the Portuguese Wikipedia is a translation of "your" Byzantine–Arab Wars. The translations of Nikephoros Ouranos, Andronikos Kontostephanos are ranked "good articles" in pt.wikipedia; I believe that soon Michael Bourtzes will also be classified as "good" and John Kourkouas and Thomas the Slav will be featured articles. Thanks! Keep up the good work. pt:Stegoptalk 18:59, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

One year ago I felt moved to award you a barnstar "in recognition of your persistent effort in generating consistently high quality good articles". Since then you have excelled yourself, gracing Wikipedia with comprehensive, erudite and captivating articles beyond number. They include the Featured Articles Siege of Constantinople (674–678), Siege of Thessalonica (1422–1430) and Battle of Halmyros; six A Class articles; sixteen Good Articles; and new articles more numerous than the stars in their Heaven.
