For all your great work flagging bots :) It's always great to approve a bot then see it flagged in less than an hour, rather than the old day or six. Matt/TheFearow (Talk) (Contribs) (Bot) 04:10, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks so very much for supporting the recent FAC of Hispanic Americans in World War II. It was successful and Hispanic Americans in World War II has been promoted! I'm looking forward to hopefully getting Hispanic Americans in World War II on the front page. In the mean time, please accept this Beer as a token of my gratitude. Salud!

You're tireless contributor! Alembert (talk) 17:40, 10 May 2012 (UTC)


The Socratic Barnstar
To Andrevan, thank you for your comments at the bureaucrat discussion about the RfA. Axl ¤ [Talk] 07:58, 9 August 2014 (UTC)


The Oddball Barnstar
For your supposition that Bishzilla, who nearly ate you, might want to go pescetarian, you richly deserve this barnstar, especially for your above-and-beyond assumption of good faith. Bishonen | tålk 07:52, 18 July 2022 (UTC)


The Barnstar of Diplomacy
For your peaceful and consensus building approach to contentious discussions and topics! Iamreallygoodatcheckers (talk) 21:55, 22 July 2022 (UTC)


The Pointless Barnstar
For investing a massive amount of time into closing a bloody messy discussion with an underwhelming result, only to have to deal with complainers, I hereby award you a pointless barnstar. Though the results may not have been impressive, the effort certainly was. Compassionate727 (T·C) 20:44, 29 September 2022 (UTC)


The Content Creativity Barnstar
For advancing the state of the art. Your work in development and application of Lead section links (§-links) is much appreciated. The test in the lead at Donald Trump is working! It leaves a very clean lead and connects each item and claim in the lead to the exact section in the body where the expanded content and references are located. -- Valjean (talk) (PING me) 15:02, 17 October 2022 (UTC)


The Anti-Vandalism Barnstar
I've seen you on the RCP trail a lot lately-- you've even beaten me to a few reverts! Just dropping by to tell you that your efforts are recognised and appreciated. ◇HelenDegenerate◆ 00:58, 12 December 2022 (UTC)

Thank you[edit]

They've already proved their worth beyond doubt; one of our sharpest, most independently minded editors with an allmost impossible mix of coolness & conscientiousness. We've lost one of the few admins who retained some of the freewheeling, inclusive, frontier spirit that used to make wikipedia such a fun place to hang out. A sad day. FeydHuxtable (talk) 11:41, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
Wow thank you FeydHuxtable Andrevan@ 18:31, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

Sorry to see your resignation and the circumstances that precipitated it. Thank you for your service to the project as an admin and bureaucrat over the years.
Wishing you all the best, WJBscribe (talk) 11:34, 12 June 2018 (UTC)

Thank you, Will, hope all is well. I know the bureaucrats are in good hands if you are still around here. Andrevan@ 22:21, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
  • Don't really know what happened, or whether it was justified or not, but you've always struck me as a good egg. Sorry this happened. --Floquenbeam (talk) 21:40, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
Thanks, likewise I've always known you to be a good egg. All the best. Andrevan@ 22:21, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
  • Thanks for your service from me as well. –xenotalk 03:16, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
Thanks! Happy to see a few old bureaucrats kicking around. Best,Andrevan@ 18:57, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
I came in after a break but I see NeilN is still pulling shit abusive blocks, so I think I'll go away and do something else anyway. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 15:42, 15 June 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for not losing it. Some noob cliques (with non-noob evil overlords) have taken to dirtytricks on wikipedia, basically maliciously trolling positive contributors and then copy-pasting where they see fitting to their narratives or interests. If you detect such cliques and anticipate their propensity for repeated reverting, it can be best to avoid any possibility of 3rr "violations" and subsequent "warring" by giving notice of your exemption to the three revert rule, in the description. Good to see you were not driven away after your YEARS OF GOOD WORK AND IMPROVEMENTS TO WIKIPEDIA. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.161.181.195 (talk) 04:11, 16 June 2018 (UTC)

A belated thank you from me, too. --Dweller (talk) Become old fashioned! 10:49, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
