* In collaboration with other Wikipedia editors, notably User:Kodster, who provided numerous copy edits. My greatest achievement here at Wikipedia, something I am very proud of.
Awards – Yes, I'm popular/talented/embattled, get over it!
I gladly give this Barnstar to Realist2, for being a member of the new generation of GA reviewers who are precise, friendly, and actually work on articles while reviewing them, because they don't want to depress people, but help them. Truly well-deserved. Enjoy.--andreasegde (talk) 17:44, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

All Around Amazing Barnstar
For all of the help, kindness, and support I have received throughout our work together on No Jacket Required, I award you this barnstar. Though unfortunately the FAN will most likely not go through, it was, is, and will always be a privilege to have worked with you on the article. Without your guidance and support, I doubt the article would have looked anywhere near as good as it does now, let alone even have a chance to be a featured article. With your help and guidance, I was able to turn an article from a GA to a very close FAC, which is something that is no easy task for an article about an album. Although the article won't pass its FAN, I want to thank you for your help and support, and hope that in the future, we can fix the concerns that were left to us by the users at the FAN page, and give it another go. Thanks again. You friend, CarpetCrawler 19:46, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Realist2 has been awarded this barnstar by Dedalus for the tremendous amount of work spent by Realist2 in the period 2006-2009 in maintaining the featured article Michael Jackson. The King is Dead. Long Live the King.
The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar
Honestly, if it wasn't for all of your hard work, the Michael Jackson article would have been total crap yesterday. That would have been a disaster, IMO. If it was filled with false information, and a lack of sources, and all of that stuff, the media would be ripping Wikipedia apart. While for a bad reason, your work was seen by over a million people yesterday. That's certainly something to be proud of. Thank you for all of your work on Jackson's article! :) – (iMatthew • talk) at 12:49, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

Your work on contributing articles about Michael Jackson is truly "Thrilling". I give you this award for your accomplishments, I hope to be as successful as you one day. SUPER SONIC BABY 2 (talk) 15:25, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
I think the superbowl thing suffers with slight undue weight. Most people outside the US shake their head in confusion at all the fuss, it panders to US viewpoint as a major incident, instead of an international, no big deal, viewpoint. Almost as much time is dedicated to it as the child sexual abuse accusation of 1993 against MJ over at Michael Jackson. Those allegations were significantly a much bigger deal than some tit falling out of a bra. Just saying it how it is. It needs a trim. – Me talking about Janet Jackson's Super bowl incident seen here.
I installed it, damn it's a sexy tool, everything I could need. Cheers. Me talking about Twinkle.
