User:Kyoko/Awards

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following are different awards that people have given me, for whatever reason. I've decided not to include every single image that people have pasted on my talk page, and rather focus on actual barnstars and similar awards. Some of the awards I feel I earned; some of them are more like gestures of kindness. I'm thankful to have the awards, and I must try to give out more awards in the future, in recognition of the hard work that people put into Wikipedia. --Kyoko 19:56, 7 April 2007 (UTC)


For your contributions to Wikipedia and humanity in general, you are hereby granted the coveted Random Smiley Award
by Pedia-I Project Jesus
Seconded by Fredil. Fredil Yupigo 03:03, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

I think I got this award for being nice, or something like that. --Kyoko 19:11, 16 November 2006 (UTC)


The Original Barnstar
In recognition of the incredible work you've done in bringing Wikipedia's lung transplantation article (and countless other articles) to fruition and bringing your knowledge to the wikipedia community I present to you this barnstar. --ImmortalGoddezz 19:28, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

This is an award that I feel I actually earned, because I'm quite proud of my work with the lung transplantation article. Who knows, maybe someday it will become a Featured Article! One can only dream... To think that for the longest time, the lung tx link was a simple redirect to the main organ transplant article, which informed you that lungs are solid organs, and yes, they get transplanted. I am so proud of the article! Thanks, ImmortalGoddezz! --Kyoko 19:11, 16 November 2006 (UTC)


I am giving you this barnstar to let you know that I too feel your Wikistress. Tachikomas are cool. Take care, --JFromm 23:28, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

I'm grateful for the award, but I don't know what I did to earn it, apart from being depressed. Thanks anyway. --Kyoko 19:11, 16 November 2006 (UTC)


The Original Barnstar
What you have been through latly with life and deppression I award you this barnstar. Even though I realize that words will never be enough I hope my actions will at least make you smile.
Thank you for being such a friendly user, the ability to keep your cool here on wikipedia and be one of the nicest people I have met on wikipedia while dealing with your stress is beyond belief. This is why I award you this Barnstar.-- Seadog 06:15, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Another award I got for having depression, and another one I wish I didn't "earn". It should be mentioned that the awarder, Seadog.M.S, has changed his name to User:Arjun01, and that he is now an administrator on Wikipedia. --Kyoko 19:56, 7 April 2007 (UTC)


The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
Though what you did is not so random, I, on behalf of E@L, award you this barnstar for your support. Randfan 18:34, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

I'm grateful for getting this award, though again, I wish that the circumstances leading up to the award hadn't occurred in the first place. User:Editor at Large was going through a rough patch in life, and I tried to help her as best I could, as did many others. If you read this, please consider sending her a kind word. --Kyoko 19:56, 7 April 2007 (UTC)


The Resilient Barnstar
After being all that you've been through, you desrve this. It perfectly describes you! Randfan 01:22, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Another award that I wish I didn't "earn". It's nice to get barnstars and such, but I'd rather just be happy. I'm also a bit uneasy about the barnstar, because a lot of people have various problems, so why reward me for it? I don't mean to sound ungrateful, but you get the idea. --Kyoko 19:56, 7 April 2007 (UTC)


A Barnstar!
The Kindness Award of Ed

This Wikipedian has received the Kindness Award from Ed for going the extra mile to be kind to another person. Kindness is important so that there may be an improved sense of community here on Wikipedia. As a reward, I offer this user a random piece of food. (I will never give the same food item out twice, so don't be jealous.) You may read a nice story on kindness over here. Thanks again! --Ed ¿Cómo estás? 00:53, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

This is another award I got for, well, being nice to another person in need. --Kyoko 19:56, 7 April 2007 (UTC)


The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
This is for your words of support on his talk page regarding what happened to him - the definition of what this barnstar means, "being nice without being asked". Thanks. Will (Speak to Me/Breathe)(Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash) 10:35, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Likewise, Cliff is another Wikipedian whom I gave a kind word to. His story is particularly heartbreaking: he lost his wife and one of his children during childbirth, on Valentine's Day, no less. If you read this message, please send him your support. --Kyoko 19:56, 7 April 2007 (UTC)


To my friend
There are a thousand reasons I could leave this place

A thousand things I need not in life

A thousand stresses I must flee

A thousand woes to make me quit this race


You are one of the few that light up the gray

Darkness of arguments and sorrow

Lonely nights and lost friends

A lovely ray of sunlight into my day


You are braver than I could ever be in your shoes

Defying pain, death, and loss

Smiling gently in the face of God

You are gentle poet, smiling friend, and brave muse

I will always be there, my friend. Don't let your fire burn out. Defy everything. And know that I'm okay, that I am not alone, and that I will be in touch. *thousands of hugs* --ElaragirlTalk|Count 02:18, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

This award isn't fancy, and it doesn't have any picture, but in some ways it's one of the most meaningful to me. Elara is a good friend who went through a string of tragedies in the past year, in addition to being the target of criticism and harassment online. She ultimately chose to leave Wikipedia. I miss her presence here, but I understand why she left. I still keep in touch with her, and I wish her well. --Kyoko 19:56, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
