For your extensive efforts on Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Giano/Workshop, and indeed throughout that entire sad, sorry mess, to minimize the resulting damage to all parties concerned.

The Original Barnstar
I know you said no responses, but what you said about your disappointment was brilliant and heartwrenching, and absolutely accurate. I looked for an appropriate specific barnstar but could not find one, so I give you the good ol' five and pointy. Golbez 02:35, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

The Wordsmith Award
I just read the recent proposed decision that you authored, and I'm very impressed and pleased by the direction that the ArbCom decisions will take with such a skilled wordsmith aboard. Your propositions address every aspect of the dispute, leave little ambiguity for future interpretation, and actually could bring closure to the dispute. Thank you, and keep it up! Sean William @ 03:21, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
The Working Man's Barnstar
For expediting Wikipedia: Requests for arbitration to a reasonable time scale. That was a major campaign plank of most of this year's crop of candidates, and while everyone helps, I see your name leading on a large number of the proposed decisions. And not a proposed redirect to Clown yet! AnonEMouse (squeak) 17:25, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
The Barnstar of Diligence
For outstanding diligence in your meta contributions in the area of dispute resolution. You reflect great credit upon the English Wikipedia, The Wikimedia Foundation, and Free knowledge everywhere. Mercury at 04:46, 20 January 2008 (UTC) 04:46, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

I award this barnstar to Newyorkbrad, for being the best all around user I've seen since Essjay. Prodego talk 03:38, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar I am deeply impressed with your rational thought as well as the long range solutions you have proposed at RFAr Mantanmoreland...I hope others will heed these points and abide by them in full, and we can all get back to writing an encyclopedia. Great job!MONGO 06:45, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
The Red Barnstar
Because I should have listened to you more during the THF Arbcomb; because you don't hold grudges; because your contributions are arguably--arguably I said--among the most valuable on this project; because I hope you will again feel comfortable offering advice in issues involving me. I assume nothing but good faith in you. You exemplify the reason I wanted to pitch in whatever talent I could to advance what we both believe to be a step in the right direction for knowledge. Anyway, I hope this clears the air if it needed any cleaning. David Shankbone 08:10, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar
I know I talked to you about ED links via email, but this is still for those comments. We don't want more Wikipedians leaving. Will (talk) 17:38, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
The Surreal Barnstar
For a most amazing poem. Stifle (talk) 17:48, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

In lieu of a more specifically appropriate award, this is for your well-judged motion to close Arbitration/Requests/Case/Durova and Shoemaker's Holiday. Thanks (uninvolved) Pointillist (talk) 23:39, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
