When we first met on Wikipedia, I realized quickly that you were one of the higher minds that was focused on your craft of improving the editorial standard of articles. This is a well-deserved barnstar for your past work over the years. William Harris •(talk) • 01:33, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
The Barnstar of Diplomacy
"Some of us prefer to be polite and respectful rather than rude and defiant...Restraint is part of good manners and common sense; let's exercise some."
