User:Dahn

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Please note: the only three accounts I own are on the English and Romanian wikipedias (for the Romanian one, see ro:Utilizator:Dahn~rowiki), and on commons. I do not own any other accounts under any other name, and the accounts with the name "Dahn" on any wikipedias other than the aforementioned are not mine—in fact, I'm willing to bet they were created by banned users solely for the purpose of disruption.

errs as other men do, but errs with integrity. jumpers for goalposts... hmm?

I always knew this altogether thunder was lost in our little lives.
Nice one, Geo

For your many valuable contributions, especially on the Balkans history, which are twice as impressive considering how recently you joined us, I, Piotrus, present you with the Exceptional Newcomer Award. Keep up the good work!
The Original Barnstar
I'd just like to personally congratulate you for your hard work on Regulamentul Organic. The turnover time was amazing and it wasn't even a self-nomination. Great job. Axem Titanium 20:38, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
The Working Man's Barnstar
Thank you for your great work on the Wallachian Revolution of 1848. It is brilliant! Redmarkviolinist 23:00, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
The Tireless Contributor Barnstar
Hi Dahn! I'd like to offer you this barnstar for all the wonderful contributions you've made to Wikipedia so far, particularly in the field of Romanian history. You really have enriched this encyclopedia through well-referenced, detailed and quality content. Thanks, Ronline 15:33, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
The Barnstar of Diligence
Dahn, when I started working on Eternal return (Eliade), I thought you were out to get me with your "original research" complaints. By now, I've come to realize how truly reasonable, intelligent, and fair you are as an editor. Your continuous efforts have made Mircea Eliade a well-worded and increasingly comprehensive article, the sort of article that might help a scholar as well as a regular guy who just wants to know who Eliade is. And while I'm mainly in it for the mythology part, and rapidly lose interest if I turn to other aspects of Eliade, you've shown a willingness to proofread and comment on the entire article, making it all a more cohesive whole. Also, you've shown a willingness, even an enthusiasm, for the sort of fact-gathering and source-sifting that other editors might find tedious. For diligent work on all things Eliade, I present you with this symbol of appreciation. --Phatius McBluff 17:41, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
The Barnstar of High Culture
Brewcrewer, a newpage patroller, rarely comes across any great new articles, but when he does, like The Reenactment, he can't help but plaster its creator's talkpage with a barnstar. brewcrewer (yada, yada) 15:15, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Romanian topics
Thank you for the broad and profound coverage of Romanian themes and people, sharpening our perspective, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:29, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
As a fellow Stalinist, I think this is a most appropriate recognition for your work on Mihail Roller, our spiritual forefather. Of all his hallowed generation — the Lucas, the Georgescus, the Chişinevschis, the Dejs, the Paukers, even the Răutus — he best understood the full meaning of Stalinist dogma, the highest fulfillment of human wisdom; he worked hardest to introduce his countrymen to that wisdom; and he perhaps paid most dearly for it. When he saw his lustrous vision fading away, it was only to be expected he would die of a broken heart. But his memory lives on in our lives, shining brightly, and with this article, a mass of Anglophones previously hidden away in a Platonic cave is sure to be converted to the Rollerite cause, their eyes opened to its cogency and its scientific allure. May you revel in this glory, may the souls of the revisionists never find rest, and may a new generation grow to cherish the precious teachings of Istoria R.P.R. Alongside this award, I should also like to bestow upon you a fitting title that needs no further comment: Capataz de Cargadores. - Biruitorul Talk 03:17, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
