		The Special Barnstar
		For the amazing work you do here. The article Le Spectre de la Rose is a really good example. This work is very much appreciated, even when is is often not recognized. You deserve this Barnstar. -Barras talk 21:59, 28 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

A well deserved barnstar! You commented the work in getting an article up to standard is hard and tiring, yes it sure is. I have had a few VGA and GA articles and I think I was ready to give up on every one of them at some point. The criteria seem simple on the page, but there is always more to do. But do not give up - I think of it this way, these articles have to be perfect. They are going to be our feature articles, and be models of what good writing and Simple English should look like. So the standard is, and should be high. Keep up the good work.--Peterdownunder (talk) 11:39, 30 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi Oregonian 2012, here's a useful tool yu might not have seen. [The Dab Solver] which automatically finds if you have linked to a disambiguation page - for example in Heracles the link to mantle links to a DAB page, eg:
Mantle is a word with various meanings:

• Mantle (geology) = Earth's mantle, below crust, above core
• Mantle (vesture) = Ecclesiastic cloak
• Mantle (mollusc) = Cloak-like part of molluscan anatomy
• Mantle (slang) = slang for breasts

This tool helps you find them and fix them. --Peterdownunder (talk) 05:33, 21 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for the tip! I'll use it! Oregonian2012 (talk) 06:24, 21 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

In light of recent events and from the personal attack you have made on MySweetMelissa on your own user talk page (that attack has since been deleted (suppressed) from this page as well as the page history), I am formally banning you from interactions with MySweetMelissa until further notice. This interaction ban applies to her user talk as well as articles that have been recently edited by her. Like what Peterdownunder said, if you have concerns you can raise them directly with Osiris or him, or leave a brief note on the relevant article's talk page. Please do not take matters into your own hands.

This is a formal administrative sanction, even if you remove this from your user talk, I will make sure that other administrators are also aware of this. Your reception to criticism and calls for dialogue has not been constructive. Please be advised that further actions contributing to a non-constructive environment may be subject to more sanctions.
