Howdy. I'm a Wikipedia user, member of the Tropical cyclone Wikiproject, and 2011 Wikicup winner. I am a musician first and foremost, so if my activity declines on Wikipedia, it means I'm doing well in my gigs playing piano and writing songs. Conversely, if I'm on here too much, it probably means my music isn't going so well. Here is my page of some songs that I do, and on December 28, 2012, I released my first album. Yes, one of the songs on there is called Hurricane.
On August 11, 2005, I became a Wikipedia user; my last name is Hink, and I like hurricanes, so I chose the name Hurricanehink. My first Wikipedia edit as Hurricanehink was a fix for the 1903 Atlantic hurricane season article. I am currently #4 on the List of Wikipedians by featured article nominations. A few featured articles that I did a lot of work to have appeared on the main page.
For all of your tireless work on Tropical Cyclone-related articles, I award you the Original Barnstar. You've earned it through your hard work, both visible and invisible. You provide valuable info, make nice suggestion, create informative and accurate new article, and even correct my mistakes. You deserve this award today. Keep up the good work and congratulations again! Miss MadelineTalk to Madeline 23:08, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

Your endless contributions to articles on tropical cyclones have significantly helped Wikipedia's coverage on them. You have great determination in getting these articles featured, and hereby award you The Tireless Contributor Barnstar. Hello32020 (talk) 20:12, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
A number of editors continue to expand hurricane related coverage, with four separate topics listed (2003 Atlantic hurricane season, Florida hurricanes, Hurricane Isabel, and Retired Pacific hurricanes).
The "number of editors" clearly refers mainly to you. That's why you should get this. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 00:58, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

The Adopt-a-user Barnstar
I know it probably doesn't feel like you succeeded in accomplishing much of anything, but you were a lot more patient than most people would've been (certainly more patient than I would've been). While the adoption wasn't successful, you gave it your all, and for that, I think you deserve recognition. Inks.LWC (talk) 03:00, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
The Special Barnstar
For being so welcoming and nice to me when I began editing as a novice IP user 5 years ago. You introduced me to some basic policies, which caused me to begin the slow process of cutting down on original research, and sourcing more often, as well as making less slopy/unintentionally disruptive edits. It was also your recommendation that eventually persuaded me to create my account. You have made me a better Wikipedian, so I would like to award you this barnstar as a symbol of my appreciation. Thank you for everything, and keep up the good work! :) LightandDark2000 (talk) 10:32, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
