A barnstar for you!

		The Finland Barnstar of National Merit
		Dear PiercingEyes, I have been admiring your many contributions to articles related to Finland since you joined in May of this year. Therefore, I have great pleasure in awarding you the present Barnstar of National Merit! Thank you for all your contributions to our encyclopedia, and please keep up your excellent work. Perhaps you might consider joining Wikipedia:WikiProject Finland, by simply adding your name in the list of active members? Thank you. With kind regards; Patrick. ツ Pdebee.(talk)(become old-fashioned!) 11:11, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

• Thank you! I'll look into it. I'm aiming to quit however. From the beginning I was only supposed to do a few quick edits and it has kept on being like that. I think when I finally get to Gallen-Kallela I'll mostly be done. PiercingEyes (talk) 11:55, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

You're most welcome; it is richly deserved.
I am hopeful you will reconsider and decide to stay, as you're doing great work here, though it's obviously your decision. Like you, I also started with a fairly limited objective in 2009 and didn't do very much at all until 2013, when I resolved to improve the article on Andy Irvine, as I had lots of sources about his career. That project enabled me to start learning about the editorial guidelines, and I found myself really enjoying contributing on a gradually wider range of topics. In any case, thank you once again for all you've done already, and please keep well.
With kind regards;
Patrick. ツ Pdebee.^{(talk)(become old-fashioned!)} 13:42, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
