User:Flyer22 Frozen/Awards and gifts

This list is of past awards and gifts; current barnstars (or similar) may be on my talk page.

For barnstars, awards, or similar, in general
I would like to second the above barnstar, thanks for your excellent work!... Johnuniq (talk) 04:26, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

Here is a kitten to take your mind off Talk:Asexuality. Enjoy.

Ritchie333  (talk)  16:42, 2 August 2012 (UTC) 

Happy 2013, and glad to see you're still around. I don't want to talk about my personal life too much on here (I see other editors like work colleagues) but the sexuality articles, of which you're a strong contributor, have been very interesting and useful reading for some stuff in my off-wiki life. Thanks.

Ritchie333  (talk)   (cont)   19:36, 2 January 2013 (UTC)  Ima break my rule of never awarding a second barnstar to a person, 'cause of all you've had to go through. It's tough. I'm glad Alison came through for you, she's a peach. You're really resilient to work through all that, a lot of people would have walked away. A tough gal, you are, it seems. I'm glad you're still here. You're valuable. Herostratus (talk) 04:49, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Aw, thank you, SU ltd. You're welcome. It's not my article, since we don't get to own any articles at Wikipedia, but I understand what you mean. And like I stated here, you know English sufficiently enough (I just read your last reply in that section, by the way). But I understand about improving. And I wish that I spoke several different languages. Barring any illness that prevents us from doing so, it's never too late to learn more languages, but it does get more difficult as we age. It's significantly easier on the brain to learn multiple languages when just starting to learn one's native language, for example. Flyer22 (talk) 18:08, 4 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Again, you're welcome. As for the urls, I usually add urls if they are available. The exception is when the url isn't helpful, such as when it doesn't go to a page in the book...but rather just the description page (sometimes with snippets that aren't too helpful or aren't helpful at all). So sometimes, I don't add the url in those cases. Most of the references in the article were already there before I started significantly working on the article; the urls not being there for any of those instances are because others didn't add them.


 * Again, thanks. And you're welcome. Flyer22 (talk) 19:10, 4 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Aw, thank you, Lova Falk!! It's very much appreciated coming from you, with how hard you work at this site and how kind and assisting you are. Thank you. I'm here a little too much these days, with barely any sleep because of my off-Wikipedia Internet work and because I'm battling my insomnia more than I have in the past, but knowing that my work here is appreciated by some people and that they believe I'm making a great difference is one way that I know it's not necessarily a waste of time editing Wikipedia. Flyer22 (talk) 16:02, 16 April 2013 (UTC)


 * You're very welcome, you deserve it. And from the sound of it, you still need lots of hard work in case you ever feel like becoming a wikisloth. Face-smile.svg Lova Falk   talk  16:42, 16 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Thank you. I try. Some people simply neglect, do not understand or refuse to adhere to the WP:Undue weight part of the WP:Neutrality policy, however. Too many editors here think that being neutral means "giving equal validity." We all have biases, but we need to remember that Wikipedia is supposed to be about keeping those biases in check with regard to writing articles. Flyer22 (talk) 19:27, 27 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Yes, this. Thank you. Flyer22 (talk) 12:34, 5 September 2013‎ (UTC)


 * Replied on your talk page. Flyer22 (talk) 14:21, 24 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Like I stated here, thank you, West.andrew.g. Thank you very much. Flyer22 (talk) 21:15, 28 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Congratulations buddy! --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 16:11, 3 March 2014 (UTC)


 * , the above is certainly the most unique and oddest barnstar I have ever been awarded.


 * Anyway, looking at the WP:Edit history of the Craig Gore article and your talk page, it is clear that I am not the only editor who has reverted you at that article or left a warning on your talk page about that article. I see that you have removed information from there again. In this case, you should familiarize yourself with the WP:Verifiability and WP:BLP policies; we should not remove things from that article simply because you do dislike those things and/or claim that they are inaccurate. Flyer22 (talk) 20:41, 9 March 2014 (UTC)


 * Thank you, Jmh649 (Doc James). Though I sometimes work on Wikipedia anatomy articles and keep some Wikipedia medical articles tidy (including free of vandalism), I'm not sure that I deserve the top medical editors barnstar; having received it, however, means a lot to me, especially coming from you (the most prolific medical editor Wikipedia has). Flyer22 (talk) 21:48, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Congrats Flyer22!  Occult Zone  ( Talk ) 06:11, 17 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Thank you a lot. Flyer22 (talk) 06:39, 17 March 2014 (UTC)


 * Thank you, Axl. This barnstar is much appreciated. MUCH APPRECIATED. Since last I remember, you watch the Vagina article, I take it that you saw this latest matter there? I can be all "girl power" just as much as the next girl or woman (as no doubt shown by this current discussion at the Human female sexuality article), but not at the expense of encyclopedic information. I often do what I can regarding sexuality matters on Wikipedia, but I also often feel like the lone wolf, which is why I sometimes use WP:Echo to call on others. Sometimes I am ready to just quit everything concerning sexuality on Wikipedia, and I often contemplate ceasing to edit Wikipedia altogether (as has been stated at this talk page before). Sometimes I think there's no point; people will believe what they want to believe about anatomy and/or sexuality, whether right or wrong, and, hopefully, someone sufficiently takes over "my role" when I do cease to edit Wikipedia altogether (which, hopefully, isn't too many years after I leave). Anyway, thanks again. Flyer22 (talk) 13:33, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
 * I hope you don't quit, or at least take a break before making that decision. Good, well-written sexuality articles really show off what Wikipedia can do - educate readers (especially the "Internet generation") about sensitive topics - and need informed, dispassionate editors like youself. -- Neil N   talk to me  20:04, 14 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Neil. Yeah, I keep considering to leave, but, as you can see, I'm still here. And it's for the reasons you named (which is similar to what is stated at the top of my talk page). Wikipedia is sort of like a drug for people, me included; it can be hard to quit. Flyer22 (talk) 20:15, 14 April 2014 (UTC)

A kitten for you!

For your work on Human sexuality. I didn't have the patience for it and kudos to you for having more than I.

EvergreenFir (talk) 21:58, 9 May 2014 (UTC) 


 * Thanks, EvergreenFir. I was certainly clear near the end of that discussion that I had no desire to see it seemingly go on forever. That editor apparently does not let up until he gets his way or at least a compromise. And since he's delved into sexual and anatomy topics, I very likely will "have to" interact with him again. Flyer22 (talk) 23:17, 9 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Thank you, JustBerry. Flyer22 (talk) 22:30, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Yup, well deserved. Also, Flyer22, are you on IRC? If so, what is your username? --JustBerry (talk) 22:31, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
 * No, JustBerry, I'm not on WP:IRC; I have yet to use that. Flyer22 (talk) 23:00, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see. Come join me in #wikipedia-en-help or ##justberry. Feel free to message me if you come on. Looking forward to messaging you! :D --JustBerry (talk) 23:07, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

A cup of coffee for you!


 * Quenhitran, sorry that I'm just now getting back to you about that. I don't drink coffee (tasted it once or twice as a kid and decided that I'll never like it; maybe I should try Starbucks), but thanks for the offer. I thank you for your work on that article, and for the section in question, as well.


 * As for the WP:GA review, yes, I've seen that the article is nominated for WP:GA status. I'll consider helping with the suggestions that the WP:GA reviewer there makes, but no promises that I will. Flyer22 (talk) 09:17, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

You Suck!


 * LOL. Why thank you, lovely vandal . Flyer22 (talk) 20:34, 25 May 2014 (UTC)


 * LOL!! You seriously just did a cover or parody version of Ridin'. LOL!! Oh you silly vandals. Flyer22 (talk) 20:40, 25 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Better yet, White and Nerdy (it includes Wikipedia). Meteor sandwich yum (talk &bull; contribs) 22:45, 25 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I thought about referring to that. But since the Ridin' Wikipedia article mentions it, I decided not to. Flyer22 (talk) 22:49, 25 May 2014 (UTC)


 * But then again, since Al says "You Suck!" in the video, maybe I should have referred to that. Flyer22 (talk) 22:53, 25 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Thank you, livelikemusic. I should have helped you sooner on the aforementioned Theresa Donovan issue, though. And I wouldn't state that I am always a supreme editor. As you likely saw before you gave me this barnstar, I can certainly let my frustration or anger get the better of me while on Wikipedia. The reply to that particular editor was a combination of being frustrated by this topic and personal issues that I have to deal with daily. I'd much rather stay as cool-headed as Zad68; I obviously can stay that cool-headed. But consistently the way he does? Sometimes it's just not worth it to me, especially if I'm dealing with a situation where I wish that people's understanding of a topic was as in depth as my understanding of that topic and then I have to compromise what I know with how they perceive the matter. I don't know everything (and I know that many people hate a know-it-all), but the things I do know well are things that I don't like to see compromised. But Wikipedia... It's a place well compromises are often made to ensure the collaborative process. Thanks again. Flyer22 (talk) 04:45, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
 * It's fine, Flyer22. We all let things get to us. You still deserve the Barnstar! So don't even think about the negatives. You helped out when you could and that's what matters, especially since others couldn't be bothered to help out! You rock!  livelikemusic  my talk page! 16:13, 14 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks, Mootros. And, as you know, I got your message here as well. Flyer22 (talk) 14:51, 25 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Sorry about this. I reworded some more. Cheers! Mootros (talk) 15:02, 25 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Mootros, that's okay. As for your extra rewording, like I stated here, a lot of what you removed in this edit was not a WP:NOTHOWTO violation, at least in my opinion. You caught the "it should be raised a little bit" part that I missed. But, for example, I left in the "The nose should be considerably softer and more pliable than normal." part because it's not telling a woman to make the nose of her cervix a certain way, which is complicated to do anyway; it's simply informing her how it should feel in that specific case, which is a health aspect to me. But, anyway, the article definitely needed cleaning up in the word department (still needs more in that regard), and your showing up at the article has resulted in a better article.


 * On a side note: I altered the heading of this section with "Artificial insemination article. " so that it is clear as to what this section is about; it will also help identifying the section once it is archived. Flyer22 (talk) 15:22, 25 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Thank you, Cullen328. I very much appreciate this barnstar. And I think you already know that I very much respect and appreciate the work you do on Wikipedia. Flyer22 (talk) 05:48, 7 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the cookie, Kethrus. What is it for? Flyer22 (talk) 12:35, 29 October 2014 (UTC)


 * I mean...other than eating of course. Flyer22 (talk) 12:37, 29 October 2014 (UTC)


 * I notice you getting to a lot of vandalism within a few seconds of it occurring, you're doing a good job constantly, I don't think there's been a day gone by where I haven't seen you. --I am  Kethrus  Talk to me!   12:48, 29 October 2014 (UTC)


 * LOL, thank you, Kethrus. Flyer22 (talk) 12:49, 29 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Thank you, Jessicashamma. Looking at your edit history, I see that you are with Education Program:Northeastern University/Online communities (2014 Q3). How did you come across my username? I find it interesting when WP:Student editors email me, or comment to me about something on Wikipedia, because they became familiar with me via something I contributed to Wikipedia. Flyer22 (talk) 17:51, 7 November 2014 (UTC)

I was exploring Hatnote and came across a page you had edited! Jessicashamma (talk) 02:41, 23 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Hello, . Thank you for the WP:Barnstar, but, regarding the Henry Knox article, your content should not be in the infobox. I reverted you the first time as a WP:Good faith edit. I reverted you the second time as WP:Vandalism. From what you stated, you are still editing in WP:Good faith, but you need to be mindful of WP:Disruptive editing and WP:Edit warring.


 * On a side note: I added "The Henry Knox article." to the heading above, so that it is clear as to what this section is about; it will also help locating the section once it is archived. Also, you don't have to issue WP:Barnstars or other special tags to communicate with editors on their talk pages. To start a new section on an editor's talk page, simply click on "New section" at the top of the talk page of the editor you want to communicate with. For this discussion that we are currently having, all you need to do is continue replying in this section if you want to communicate with me further. And remember to sign your username when discussing matters on Wikipedia talk pages. All you have to do to sign your username is simply type four tildes (~), like this: . Flyer22 (talk) 02:11, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

A kitten for you! For putting up with significantly more bullshit than I'd ever have the patience to deal with. Keep on editing even if haters try to throw roadblocks and meaningless labels in your way!

Full discussion at User talk:Flyer22 Reborn/Archive 18.


 * Thanks, Neil. And I think you know that I'm the obsessive-compulsive sort (yes, I can be very OCD), so I "have to" point out what you are referring to. Thanks for letting me air this out on your user talk page. Flyer22 (talk) 21:25, 27 March 2015 (UTC)

I apologize if I came of as dismissive, sockpuppet investigations just aren't really my thing. I tend to block the really really obvious ones and leave the more complicated stuff for the experts. Obviously you were really onto something there. Beeblebrox (talk) 19:32, 27 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Thanks, Beeblebrox. I wasn't frustrated with you. I know that, in that case, I thanked Tiptoety for not ignoring the matter. But I mainly thanked him for that because, as noted in the previous Cali11298 investigation, other WP:CheckUsers (except for one who was going to check but needed time to do so) did not take the time to look into the matter, or, if they did, they didn't tell me. This gave Cali11298 more time for WP:Disruption. I am aware of the WP:NOTFISHING policy and that some WP:CheckUsers are very wary of violating that, but I offer Tiptoety enough evidence to suspect WP:Sockpuppetry, which takes the matter away from being any sort of WP:NOTFISHING violation. He seems to trust me enough to know that I am very likely right when I put forth "flimsy" WP:Sockpuppet accusations/evidence, and I very much appreciate that.


 * Either way, Cali11298 will not stop WP:Sockpuppeting or pestering me. I take note of subtle things in addition to not-so-subtle things when considering whether an account is Cali11298, including this recent comment by a supposed WP:Newbie at an obscure article talk page -- the talk page of an article I recently edited. I do this with other WP:Sockpuppet masters as well. Flyer22 (talk) 22:03, 27 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Panther5324, I put the Anti-LGBT rhetoric‎ article on my WP:Watchlist at some point last year or this year, but I hadn't edited it until recently. With articles such as those (meaning those of a highly controversial nature), I usually simply watch for WP:Vandalism or other unconstructive edits. Granted...with some sexual or sexology articles, I also add and tweak content. Flyer22 (talk) 01:41, 5 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Also, Panther5324, be careful not to mark edits as WP:Minor unless they are minor. This and this are not minor edits. And as for that first "this" link, IMDb is generally a poor source; see External links/Perennial websites. Flyer22 (talk) 01:50, 5 May 2015 (UTC)

Note: This section pertains to the section [...]. Flyer22 (talk) 02:33, 24 May 2015 (UTC)

Full backstory at User talk:Flyer22 Reborn/Archive 19.


 * Thanks, WhatamIdoing. I figured that you were okay with it, but I'm pleased to know that you are very okay with it, LOL. Whether we agree or disagree on an aspect of a policy, guideline, essay, or something else, I do always consider your thoughts. Sometimes it may seem like I don't, but I do. Flyer22 (talk) 02:15, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

Thelonggoneblues, thank you for the barnstar. Also thank you for considering my notes (things I've stated in the edit histories or on the talk pages of the The Walking Dead (TV series) articles) and using that to improve as an editor. You often do nice work on these articles. Flyer22 (talk) 00:25, 22 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Also, you should help expand Long-term abuse/Cali11298 with necessary information. Esquivalience t 00:22, 27 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Rsrikanth05, thanks. Though I could have done things differently that wouldn't have made that situation worse. Flyer22 (talk) 20:53, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
 * It's alright. What has been done has been done. The best thing to do is to apply what we've learnt from it when a future vandal pops up. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 21:15, 14 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Wikipedia is not for advertising or promotion as the warnings on your talk page say Games Life. Also awards are not for asking questions inside but for acheivements and are definetely not to be used as attempted bribes. If you would like to edit articles not related to your website and need help, I am not too experienced but I can answer some of your questions if you leave them on my talk page. Thanks Tortle (talk) 02:12, 8 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Amen. John Carter (talk) 21:44, 11 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Kaldari and John Carter, LOL, if any editor ever created that many valid Wikipedia articles, they would certainly deserve the above new barnstar. But I have not created that many articles. Thank you, though. Flyer22 (talk) 22:28, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Are they all redirects or something? Kaldari (talk) 22:34, 11 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Kaldari, I haven't created that many redirects. I've created some redirects, but certainly not that many. The "Articles created" link shows which articles I created, but it's currently not working; takes forever to load. It also shows that I created the War rape article (now called Wartime sexual violence), but that is incorrect; I fixed an article move in that case. I created articles when I was a WP:Newbie, and that's it. I haven't had much interest in creating articles since then. I've rather had interest in fixing up, or significantly fixing up, existing articles. For example, even though I did not technically create the Clitoris article, the vast majority of the content that's there now is my work. And even though it's WP:GA class, I need to tweak some things and update some references there. Flyer22 (talk) 22:54, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Hmm, maybe the database report is wrong, in which case I'll have to take my shiny barnstar back ;) Kaldari (talk) 23:22, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Now I see. Looks like the 19,000 pages created are from vandalism patrolling, not article writing. I probably should have given you the Defender of the Wiki Barnstar instead. Regardless, nice work! Kaldari (talk) 06:20, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

  child protection

Thank you, user with significant knowledge in the social/scientific/psychological/sexual fields, for quality unbiased articles on these topics, such as Clitoris and Todd Manning, for explaining, for your firm stance on child protection, for your collection of vandalism moments, - you are an awesome Wikipedian! - Enjoy a "bit of tea every now and again, to stop, relax, reflect and prepare ourselves to finish the tasks at hand".
