[edit] Barnstars

Hi, welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that you put a barnstar on a number of userpages. This is unusual behavior for a new editor--are you an editor who has previously edited without logging in or using a different account?

I'm a little concerned about the wording you used, too. "Don't spin to much, you'll hurt yourself." This seems to be somewhat hostile. Barnstars are supposed to be awards for achievement that helps the encyclopedia. If you have a problem with something an editor has been up to, please make a polite comment on his talk page. We also have a policy on civility and one against personal attacks, and these edits probably fall afoul of both policies.

It's probably worth waiting a while and watching until you feel you understand Wikipedia culture, before granting barnstars or indeed editing other users' pages in any way.

Please don't take this wrong--it's understandable that a newcomer may not immediately understand Wikipedia, and we don't hold it against you as long as you are willing to learn. --Tony Sidaway 22:22, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
