I've made my mind up. Can I join the barnstar batallion? I'd love to help with rules and stuff. I also would like to give some out not alone, but as a team.--Editor510 (talk) 15:04, 19 January 2008 (UTC) PS

Am I a nice wikipedian? It's just i'm not on your Nice Wikipedians Page, I'm not upset about it, I'm just wondering.

Oh, and have a twix.

OK, here are my answers:

1. The Original Barnstar- I like it basic.

2. For everyone on Wikipedia to be happy.

Thanks for the barnstar. My awards section was...rather lacking before this =D. Thanks again, Malinaccier (talk) 23:13, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Highlander Wikiproject barnstar

Thanks for offering your help. I understand having questions, so I'll try to answer them to the best of my ability.

The closest thing to a Highlander logo is the Highlander text over a katana (see here Image:Highlander12.jpg). No set colors though the blue and white of scotland are the cloest appropriate I'd say or the Tartan of Clan MacLeod ( Image:MacLeod tartan (Logan & Smibert).png). As far as designs, we've got no clue to be honest. Looking for ideas from other Wikiprojects. The simpler the better really. And finally, Highlander is a franchise that started with a movie in the mid 80s and has encompassed 5 movies, 2 tv shows, a cartoon show, an anime move, and two comic book runs, along with numerous card games and such. Most basic info can be found at Highlander (franchise). Thanks again for any help you can do. Its much appreciated. Hooper (talk) 18:20, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] For Hurricane Ivan?

I actually didn't do much for that article. I wrote the aftermath section and that's about it. I am one of the founding members of the hurricane project and have been quietly one its biggest contributors (not so much in recent months). Hurricanehink picked up where I left off and, as you can see by his accumulation of awards, has done a very good job. I think the biggest reward is the recogniton we've gotten as a group. We've helped expand the knowledge of hurricanes and their history and I'm very proud of that. -- §HurricaneERICarchive 23:02, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Gylfie

A tag has been placed on Gylfie, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hi, sorry to trouble you, but your signature is far too long, could you possibly trim the length so it doesn't end up taking up more space than many of your comments (as is the case with your comment at ^demon's RfA). Thanks in advance. Nick (talk) 22:34, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of Soren (Guardians of Ga'Hoole)

An editor has nominated Soren (Guardians of Ga'Hoole), an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Soren (Guardians of Ga'Hoole) and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 14:59, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Oh, and one more thing...I'm not really asking for a barnstar. I invite you to go through my contributions, and if you think I deserve one, great; if I don't, that's great, too. I would just like an honest opinion from a third party. In other words...How am I doin'? Thanks! --LaPianísta! 04:21, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Dear Swirlex

I have just started a welcoming squad (see User:Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Fan/Wikipedia Welcome Squad) and was wondering if you or anyone you know would be interested in joining. I'm asking this, because, your random acts of kindness would be greatly appreiciated for the project.--LAAFan 22:53, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hi, Swirlex

I'd like you to check out this page. If you want a free barnstar just for having the heart and kindness to be an actor in it, click it. I dare ya. g'on. I completely dare you. I forgot where I live...--Editor510 (talk) 12:59, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Something to think about

I think it's great that you're eager to encourage Wikipedians by giving out awards and spreading Wikilove. However, I'm concerned that the original purpose of the Barnstar may be in danger. Generally they are given to people who have put in large amounts of work to make Wikipedia a valuable research tool. When some people get Barnstars for finding secret pages or signing guestbooks, it seems to me that this lowers the overall significance of the honor. (Imagine if someone got $100 every time he tied his shoes correctly.)

I know how exciting it is to get a Barnstar, and how nice it is to give them out – but remember that too much of a good thing lessens the joy of the experience for everyone. Just something to think about.. – Scartol • Tok 22:22, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] User question about Barnstar Battalion

I hope I'm not overstepping my boundaries, but a user asked a question on the Barnstar Battalion on your userpage. I answered the question, showed them the project link, and told them kindly about their editing mistake. The question is at the very bottom of your userpage, but I find editing another's userpage something you should never do, so I left the question on your userpage.
