Nice work on the '1 (The Motors album)' article and I see that 'Approved By The Motors' is in the pipeline. Maybe you should consider completing the hat-trick and do 'Tenement Steps' also, which was notable for the title track single getting to No.17 in Holland. Anyway, from a Motors fan, many thanks.

		The Photographer's Barnstar
		Dear Seth, Thank you so much for all your wonderful help in providing photos for so many of the album covers related to Andy Irvine, be it his solo albums or his extensive list of collaborations. As you probably gathered, it took me a while to create all those articles, and I had long aspired to learn how to upload cover photos, so as to apply the icing on the cake, so to speak. Thanks to you, this is now done and I am most grateful to you for your diligent cooperation. Please keep well, Seth, and thank you for your contributions to our encyclopedia. With kind regards; Patrick. ツ Pdebee.^(talk)^(guestbook) 21:09, 29 October 2016 (UTC)

Dear Seth,

It's a bit early in the day for a beer , so I am awarding you some delicious baklava instead, hoping you have a sweet tooth! Very many thanks once again for all your magnificent assistance with the provision of photos for the many album covers in articles related to the works of Andy Irvine!
With kind regards;
Patrick. ツ Pdebee.^(talk)^(guestbook) 09:48, 30 October 2016 (UTC)

Dear Seth,

Seeing as it's now lunch time (and on a Sunday), methinks you're allowed to have a beer...
Thank you very much for sharing your experience with your fellow editors (me, in this instance). I will cut and paste your detailed guidance into a user page of mine, where I've collected similar instructions in the past. Next time I create an album article, I will use your step-by-step guidance and will only consult you if I don't succeed and need rescuing...
Please keep well and joyful, Seth, and very many thanks once again for your outstanding cooperation!
With kind regards;
Patrick. ツ Pdebee.^(talk)^(guestbook) 13:39, 30 October 2016 (UTC)
