I have long been shy about saying too much on this page, but probably with detective skills most could figure out that I am a health professional living in Montreal. As someone with an interest in language and communication, I am very intrigued that other editors have assumed I am a 'he' when I'm not. Do I use a register in my internet posts that appears male? Or is it just because most editors here are male? Scope here for someone else's PhD perhaps.

This is my hobby so I tend to edit articles that take my fancy and have no connection to my professional and academic background. I haven't always succeeded however! Articles to which I have made major contributions are a very bizarre mixture that reflect my eclectic interests, including some subjects I had no interest in at all until I waded in to help other editors in the middle of a dispute. I hope I did help!

Thanks for being such an ace colleague on Learned Hand. You stick at things, madam, and I respect that quality above all others. I'm off to dance round the garden blowing my basset horn. qp10qp (talk) 21:20, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

The Barnstar of Diligence
For your extraordinary diligence with the Eido Tai Shimano page, in particular going to the library to verify sources not available online in the name of building consensus around a most fractious topic that has already eaten more than enough of your time, I present you with this Barnstar of Diligence in recognition of your selfless labor. ⌘macwhiz (talk) 01:16, 14 September 2010 (UTC)


The Sherlock Holmes Award for Exceptional Sleuthing to Discover the Facts in an Unfamiliar Area of Inquiry

Conferred for your tenacity and scholarship in researching the legal constraints on the disposal of nuclear waste at sea in connection with the Challenger Deep article. Not many editors will take such care to discover the facts in an area outside their area of training and expertise, and you did! We would have been all to seek without your scholarship in tracking down sources and taking the time to understand a rather complex series of documents. The article is very much the better for your exceptional diligence, and you should be proud of your contribution. Thanks!  – OhioStandard (talk) 17:59, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
