It is my pleasure to award you this Alexander the Great Edition Triple Laurel Crown for an impressive collection of nature related articles. Keep up the good work. Freikorp (talk) 11:45, 20 December 2016 (UTC)

I started editing Wikipedia in October 2010 and was initially helped by AaronY. At first I worked on writing and enlarging regional articles about Wales, where I come from. Then I moved on to articles about animals and plants covered by the Tree of Life Project, especially marine life and insects. I try to write articles on species which have no current entry but which have a red wikilink from some other article. I have expanded many stubs into more comprehensive articles, as well as improving over fifty articles to GA standard and more than fifteen to FA, many of these being collaborative efforts on major taxa.

Articles I have started, expanded from stubs or brought to GA or FA

In January 2012 I entered the WikiCup and put forward many new articles for DYK in order to score points for the cup (*=5000+ hits):

The "Did You Know...?" Reviewer's Barnstar
Thank you for your work in evaluating articles that are submitted for review so they can be mentioned in the DYK section of Wikipedia’s Main Page. I have often wondered why reviewers often don't get accolades for their work since they often put in as much time as those who improve content. The effort needed to participate in this area of Wikipedia is significant. I don't think most other editors realize what a service you are doing to help showcase new, expanded or recently promoted GA articles. Barbara

Thank you for all the things you have done for Wikipedia. Without you, we would be out many DYK, GA, and FA-class articles.

It was a disappointment to see you withdraw from RFA, but I hope you will learn from the experience so you could run again. I think the Arbcom thing was unfortunate, and that's why so many people opposed, but you are a good writer overall, so don't let that stop you from running again. epicgenius (talk) 18:17, 10 May 2017 (UTC)

The Special Barnstar
I'm sorry to see the trouble you're having with DYK. If it means anything I've not bothered with DYK in a long time now, as articles usually end up being targetted. Overall you're a very valuable contributor to wikipedia, and given your workload, errors are inevitable from even the best editors. What they don't understand is that the work you do is really among the most important on the site, general quality improvement, which not enough people are doing. So people should be trying to help you, not deter you. I hope my contests anyway will be enough to keep up your motivation for editing. You deserve better than this. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:49, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

I'm really excited about the prospect of a high-level general interest article like Sea becoming a featured article! I know, I wasn't able to support (nor oppose), and I do hope the discrepancy (between what most articles seem to mean when they link to "Sea" and what the article mainly concerns) is eventually resolved. But I wish all the best for the article, sincerely.

Also, I notice that desert is a GAN, and I am very tempted to review... but "desert" is such a broad article with so many diverse facets that it's intimidating for me even to review (and I think other reviewers feel the same). I can only imagine the work it took to get it into the great shape that it's in.

Thanks for improving such important articles! All the best, – Quadell (talk) 11:19, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

I realize you already got a ton of barnstars, but I just have to give you kudos for drastically improving the Amphibian article, so I baked you this pie. Less than a year ago it was less than half the size it is today. I know I initiated the efforts to improve it but never thought someone would come along and do so much. Thanks a lot for your hard work! :) Cadiomals (talk) 15:44, 9 September 2012 (UTC)
