The Eraser Barnstar
I award this barnstar to you for having the bold courage to proceed in mass-erasing many userboxes, keeping things neat and tidy for the rest of us, despite remonstration! Way to go, slugger! Coolgamer 22:21, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

OrphanBot Vandalism
[edit]Your merging of the tag Template:PD-CAGov to tl|no license caused OrphanBot to automatically vandalize several webpages with legitimite California public domain images. This has caused me several hours of work reverting the vandalism. Please be careful in the future. Dananderson 19:09, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
- Ditto! You really owe it to the community to revert ALL the damage done by your edits, like this one: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:LA_County_DA_Seal.gif&diff=prev&oldid=51083832 - it looks like there's a lot more damage like this, but without an admin account, I can't find it. :-( The damage you did to this particular file wasn't undone 'till I requested undeletion in April of 2012! --Elvey (talk) 00:30, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
