User:Jimbo Wales/Barnstars

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Honestly, I made this page because I don't know the etiquette on these things. They've been on my user page for months, am I allowed to delete them, would that be rude? Should I keep them, is that poor taste as well?

Anyhow, I moved them here.  :-)

  • Keep them, as some sort of an archive..there aren't THAT many barnstars either..it's not like it floods browsers and crashes 56K modems ;) -- SoothingR 07:49, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

Image:Barnstar.png Yet another barnstar for Jimbo. I use wikipedia nearly every day as a reference at work. I design Access Management System for Transportation (did you know that a modern subway turnstile has a PentiumIII in it?), and our products incorporate a huge array of sub-components. Wiki helps me to get a quick reference on subjects that I only got a vague grip of. Thanks! 81.57.15.180 01:28, 20 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Image:Barnstar.png I, Steptrip, award you this barnstar for a spectrum of things. Two of which being the facts that you created Wikipedia, and the second one being that you keep your cool while putting up with uncivil trolls.  ~Steptrip 23:04, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
