The Special Barnstar
Hi. I know we have never interacted, but I just want to say thanks for all of your contributions at Wikipedia. I'm deeply sorry that you have decided to leave us. You have been such a valuable and good administrator and editor, and though you may have some disputes and disagreements with other editors, please don't let any type of abuse get to you. Seriously, we need kind, considerate and trusted administrators like you here. I do hope you consider returning to Wikipedia soon. In the meantime, I would like to wish you the best of luck with your future endeavours. With warmest regards and respect, Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 05:08, 15 April 2013 (UTC)

The Admin's Barnstar
For your brilliant admin work and initiative fighting socks in the chronically sock-plagued area of K-pop articles. This includes investigating the socks and following up with protection of the articles they frequented. This type of holistic approach to admin work is welcome, reassuring, and very much needed and appreciated. Thank you very much Dreadstar. Δρ.Κ.λόγοςπράξις 05:08, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
A barnstar for you!
The Teamwork Barnstar
For your outstanding support and dedication in getting Yogo sapphire from a new article to DYK to GA to FA and FOUR. The team effort of the uncountable people involved in getting this unique article to FA is a textbook case of teamwork in article improvement, ie, what Wikipedia should be, not what it all too often is. I can never thank everyone enough. PumpkinSkytalk 23:17, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for the funnies
The Surreal Barnstar
Thanks for adding some lightness and fun to Wikipedia with your WP:V exit comments. A real blessing after the never ending circular, heated, haven't-we-done-this-before, and so somewhat surreal environment of the WP:V talk page. olive (talk) 04:18, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Main page appearance
Hello! This is a note to let the main editors of this article know that it will be appearing as the main page featured article on March 24, 2011. You can view the TFA blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/March 24, 2011. If you think it is necessary to change the main date, you can request it with the featured article director, Raul654 (talk·contribs). If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions of the suggested formatting. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :D Thanks!
