:thank you for protecting the page :) I am so deeply embarassed and sorry for my huge mistake with you. I guess when you spend so much time in hightened tension arguments, when the intentions of the editors don't seem in your best interest, you irrationally start feeling like everyone is against you.

I've read [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:THF&diff=274262404&oldid=274255634 this comment] several times, and it looks like harassment to me. See [[WP:HARASS]]. You seem to be threatening to make THF's on-site experience miserable if he doesn't disengage from your particular article. This is intolerable. Further threats like this may result block.

I now have 20+ barnstars, but like a good monkey, I had to press the little button 2,869 times before I got my first prize. :(
The BLP Barnstar
I hereby award you this shiny barnstar for your efforts to alert Wikiprojects about how to locate BLPs for their projects and invite their participation in the discussion that would affect potentially all projects with a mass deletion (50,000 by most estimates) of "unsourced" BLPs. Your notice was such a good idea and sharing those links will help push some of those most familiar with the topics to help the articles at risk. Keep up the great work! -- Banjeboi 12:43, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
For perpetually defending Wikipedia's intended and most valuable purpose: catalogging human knowledge. I hope you had a nice Valentine's Day! Sincerely, A NobodyMy talk 00:29, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Defender of the Noble Spirt of Wikipedia
For your noble and unbreakable spirit of inclusion, mentorship and fraternity towards your fellow editors and the Wikipedian community. --Grancafé (talk) 02:01, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Barnstar of the Lamp For The Huddled Masses
For your pure intentioned dedication to speaking for those who do not speak, the wretched refuse of the teeming shores of the internet, providing a lamp of illumination. ----Milowent (talk) 03:20, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar
For all your work in these difficult days: notifying Wikiprojects, discussing on the RfC's, exposing rogue editors/admins behaviour and also for this exceptional comment, which definitely proves what is the real problem of Wikipedia these days. We need more brilliant editors like you! Cyclopiatalk 13:08, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The Guidance Barnstar

... for your advice and assistance in the development of a Philippine-related article. -- Sultan-Commander (talk) 10:51, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar
I award you this barnstar for your continued and tireless efforts to keep Wikipedia a welcome place for all editors... from your graciousness and guidence to newcomers who might feel "put off" when their own initial efforts end up at AfD... to your efforts to maintain the integrity of the project and its articles. The job is never-ending, and yet you continue... even when your efforts are sometimes considered as overzealous. Keep up the good fight, but with patience... as Don Quixote is not the only one to find honor in tilting at windmills. Schmidt,MICHAEL Q. 20:46, 22 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
A Lucky Penny
In the spirit of funding that is sweeping the country this penny is offered to Editor:Ikip for his incredible WikiWorld endeavors:----Buster7 (talk) 23:43, 23 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
have noticed the announcements at several pages and applaud your courtesy in sharing the news that such a discussion is going on, as thousands of affected editors would otherwise have no idea that the fates of so many articles was being determined or where to even look for such a discussion. Well done. I am surprised that others have not themselves been as proactive in seeking a wider consensus for such an important and far-reaching proposal. This thing could impact nearly three quarters of a million articles. Good job!!! Wow. Schmidt,MICHAEL Q. 18:09, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Duck_Hook Nixon threat, called for the possibly-nuclear bombing of military and economic targets in and around Hanoi, the mining of Haiphong and other ports
United_States_v._Stanley the United States Supreme Court found that a serviceman could not file a tort action against the federal government, even though the government secretly administered doses of LSD to the serviceman as part of an experimental program, because his injuries were found by the lower court to be service-related.
...and here's an honorary enigma rotor for ferreting out a good solution. Casliber (talk· contribs) 23:47, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]Thanks Travb! I now give you a WikiCookie from the Wikipedia cookie jar! for your initiative to develop and create a new very useful template for a Colombia related article! great job!

What a Brilliant Idea Barnstar
This is an excellent idea for Foreign relations of Argentina by country to deal with the minor bilateral relationships, just 1 suggestion for improvement can we sort by continent/region? LibStar (talk) 09:19, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar

The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar

Thankyou for being so nice to me! ScythreTalkContribs 15:52, 4 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
What a Brilliant Idea Barnstar
I hereby award this Barnstar to Ikip for his excellent idea to reduce conflict by pre-empting potentially heated AfD debates with a suggestion that articles be userfied, so new users can still work to improve their work, while deletionists are happy as problem articles are removed from mainspace. Everyone's a winner! FeydHuxtable (talk) 10:42, 13 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The Original Barnstar
For cutting process, getting crap out of mainspace and helping newbies not to feel bitten all at the same time, a singular achievement. Guy (Help!) 20:42, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
This project does not exist to help editors grow a thicker skin. Our mission is to build an encyclopedia, not establish limits for low-level abuse that we think our volunteer editors should be willing to suffer. If we drive away more people than we attract, then it's a genuine loss to the project and we should fix it rather than label those who would prefer to work in a civil environment as "thin skinned." -- User:Cool Hand Luke[2]
The problem is that our enforcement of civility and NPA has historically been quite selective. If you're unpopular or unpowerful and criticizing somebody popular or powerful, you are likely to be blocked. The other way around, not so much. We ought to come up with objective standards and stick to them. -- User:Jehochman[3]
A reliable measure of prejudice is how many mistakes a person gets forgiven. --Durova
Your ninth consecutive talk-page request about an issue where consensus has already been decided against you without you once addressing the reasoning for that consensus has led me to open Wikipedia:Wikiquette_alerts#Ikip. THF (talk) 07:37, 1 March 2009 (UTC).[reply]
Please note that the section title is your incorrect characterization. This is at WQA, and is not an "RFC." Your attempting to make into an RFC and canvassing for people to disrupt the WQA is exactly the sort of impolite thing I am complaining about. THF (talk) 15:43, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
