  The Barnstar of Good Humor
For being a consistently funny presence, without ever stopping being informative. igordebraga 18:39, 4 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Because you deserve it. (maybe one day your Million Award will come, it's all about improving the right articles - I have three!) And in case you ever get free time.

Igordebraga Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And also congratulations for being the first person to give me a barnstar :) I'm aware you come from Brazil, but I don't know how to say 'Thank you' in Spanish Well, as for me being funny, I've gotten slightly better at it over the past few thousands of whiles; a few years ago, I relied on three types of jokes to be funny, being, respectively, knock-knock jokes, puns, and my life

P.S. Igordebraga Brazilians speak Spanish, don't they? 😉
Well, we're really fluent in Portuñol. (myself, the Spanish teacher I had in school scarred me for life regarding trying to learn that language) igordebraga 04:44, 11 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
Igordebraga I didn't know of Portuñol's existence!!!!! Well that's my new fact of the day, and don't you worry, I know that you all speak Portuguese 😂 I should visit one day Rebestalic[leave a message....] 05:04, 11 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Wonder if you're available to help here. ~~

Igordebraga It's done! I'm sorry for coming late :( Rebestalic[leave a message....] 05:31, 28 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
I also underestimated SSSB's disposition to write it all. But hope you can give us another Report some day! igordebraga 05:45, 28 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
Igordebraga I'd love to!!!!! At this point, it appears that I will not have the time to contribute to Top 25 or even Wikipedia in any major capacity for the months to come, but I'll still try Rebestalic[leave a message....] 05:47, 28 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Don't know if you'll be available to write anything for the rest of the year. In any case, thanks for again leaving something that I could use for the yearly report! igordebraga 23:45, 20 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Igordebraga Hey! I won't be able to write anything for the rest of the year, no--my gosh, I've never been so busy in my life! But thank you and you're welcome and I really do hope to be able to help you out as soon as I can!!! Rebestalic[leave a message....] 01:09, 21 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Your GA nomination of Mxmtoon

edit

The article Mxmtoon you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold  . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Mxmtoon and Talk:Mxmtoon/GA1 for issues which need to be addressed. Message delivered by ChristieBot, on behalf of SL93 -- SL93 (talk) 19:42, 7 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

I passed it. Congratulations! The article was a DYK before and is now a GA. That is pretty impressive. SL93 (talk) 02:17, 8 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thank you very much! As with some other small (but not insubstantial) artists, mxmtoon has a highly dedicated fanbase, of which inevitably thus has someone who also has enthusiasm in Wikipedia editing.

Oh also, I'm actually more active on Wikipedia than I am on that email inbox LOL Rebestalic[leave a message....] 02:23, 8 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Your GA nomination of Mxmtoon

edit

The article Mxmtoon you nominated as a good article has passed  ; see Talk:Mxmtoon for comments about the article, and Talk:Mxmtoon/GA1 for the nomination. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

In appreciation

  The Special Barnstar
By the authority vested in me by myself it gives me great pleasure to present you with this barnstar in recognition of your taking am immediate oppose to your first FAC with classy grace and in a Wikipedian way. This is appreciated. I hope that we will see the article at FAC again. Gog the Mild (talk) 23:47, 11 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Gog the Mild Wow, deferent salutations to you! My gratitude to you also for what appears to be my first barnstar; what did I oppose, by the way? Rebestalic[leave a message....] 23:33, 11 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
How embarrassing! It was your nomination which was opposed and I gave you the wrong barnstar. (I wonder what I gave the oppser? Must check.) Any hoo, corrected now. I liked the way you took some tough criticism on the chin, and thought it deserved some recognition. Hopefully you are not deterred from FAC and will be back soon with a stronger article. Profound apologies for the mix up; I must take more water with it. Gog the Mild (talk) 23:47, 11 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Gog the Mild Water's really good! Take as much as you like. Thank you for your compassion; I don't mind criticism at all, as it makes me better! I'm not at all deterred from making an FA effort--actually, it makes me more appreciative and respectful for the articles that passed the FA evaluation, and Wikipedia's structure as a whole!
My gratitude again Rebestalic[leave a message....] 23:59, 11 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Invitation to an in-person meetup in Mohua / Golden Bay

edit
 
Golden Bay Air are holding some seats for us until 21 November

Thinking about your summer break? Think about joining other Wikipedians and Wikimedians in Golden Bay / Mohua! Details are on the meetup page. There's heaps of interesting stuff to work on e.g. the oldest extant waka or New Zealand's oldest ongoing legal case. Or you may spend your time taking photos and then upload them.

Golden Bay is hard to get to and the airline flying into Tākaka uses small planes, so we are holding some seats from and to Wellington and we are offering attendees a $200 travel subsidy to help with costs.

Be in touch with Schwede66 if this event interests you and you'd like to discuss logistics. Schwede66 09:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
