For your amazing work getting math biographies sourced during the recent mess - every time I look, there you are, crossing another name off the list. I'd have given you the tireless barnstar, but you already have one of those :) RayTalk 04:32, 24 January 2010 (UTC) |
The Guidance Barnstar | ||
To Nsk92 in recognition of good oversight and advice in the process of bringing an article I created, L. Martin Griffin Jr. to the Main page through my very first Did you know... - your suggestions regarding the hook, etc. were timely, friendly and spot on. My best wishes to you today, and every day!

In March 2008 I made a proposal[1] to strengthen WMF's privacy policy by including a notification provision for the cases where identifying info of Wikipedia users is sought by third-party subpoenas. The proposal was later adopted by the WMF Board of Trustees, Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)/Archive 46#Update in privacy policy, and is now a part of the WMF privacy policy[2][3].
