The Barnstar of Diligence |
| Thank you for alerting me about that situation. A plethora of non notable possible undisclosed paid promotional articles (over a dozen) as of now have been unearthed due to that singular act of yours. Thank you for your diligence. Celestina007 (talk) 22:57, 19 December 2021 (UTC) |

The No Spam Barnstar |
| Article spamming is an existential threat to the collaborative project and I also find that most editors tend to shy away from this area of editing, but not you! A critical ping you made to me, led not only to the utter deletion of two third of the dubious articles they created, but also led to the nabbing of an LTA. Thank you so much for striving to maintain and sustain the integrity of articles on mainspace. Celestina007 (talk) 19:20, 2 January 2022 (UTC) |

The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar | |
| Dear Novem Linguae, Please receive my belated but heartfelt appreciation for saving the day on the Wikipedia:Good article reassessment/February 2023 effort to re-assess Good articles, that aided in the DC Copyright contributor investigation. When I first proposed the process in the January 2023 AN discussion, I envisioned it working something like procedural Featured article reviews; I had no idea that there wasn't really a GAR process in place to deal with several hundred deficient GAs, and the work turned out to be much more complicated than I thought. It simply would not have been possible--or at least, would not have been accomplished so seamlessly--without your effort, competence, thoroughness, and efficiency. And besides all of that, you are just so nice to work with :) Best regards, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 19:51, 23 March 2023 (UTC) |
