Why is this user awesome? Goes about its business quietly and never says a mean word to anyone even though it has racked up over 500,000 edits during almost six years of service! Of course, it does have the bad habit of removing content from other people's talk pages, but I think we can overlook it.

Why is this user awesome? MastCell is capable of sound argument. That's his most awesome quality, in my opinion, simply because of its relative rarity in this population. I'm sure others will fill out the rest.

• +1 Excellent user page. --Tito Dutta (talk) 09:37, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• A bastion of clear thoughts ```Buster Seven Talk 13:45, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Yes! Sound argument, clear thoughts, and I think I'd call MastCell "wise". To be wise, a person must have a combination of superior intellect and mature emotional wisdom as well...and...oh wait, I'll look it up on Wikipedia!

Wisdom is the judicious application of knowledge. It is a deep understanding and realization of people, things, events or situations, resulting in the ability to apply perceptions, judgments and actions in keeping with this understanding. It often requires control of one's emotional reactions (the "passions") so that universal principles, reason and knowledge prevail to determine one's actions.

Yup, that's what he's got! Gandydancer (talk) 22:29, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Just kidding, everybody (no worries, you don't have to subject yourself to that... if you don't want to). ;-)

But seriously, this one's a no-brainer. MastCell is among our absolute best, a very sensible editor who shoots from the hip and knows what he's talking about. I have always held his perspective in very high regard, and I truly wish we had more like him. Kurtis ^(talk) 00:43, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Why is this user awesome?

She has over 44k edits, putting her in the top 1000 Wikipedians of all time, and a habit of sneaking onto new pages and quietly cleaning them up. She has a firm yet gentle way of dealing with problems as an admin. She still manages to keep her article edits over half of her contribs here as well, showing she has her eye on what is really important: content for the reader. That, and from my experience, she is really a kind person that manages to bring a little joy wherever she goes. She has unknowingly been a positive influence for me over the last year.

Why is this user awesome? This user constantly monitors Wikipedia for people who make obscene changes and keeps this site clean and accurate. He works a lot outside of the website advocating for Wikipedia to be made a reliable source. He constantly encourages great editors and is willing to take newbies under his wing. A fantastic editor who really deserves recognition for his outstanding work on the site, but mainly his personal encouraging relationship with people, and his work outside the site.

Why is this user awesome? Huon has been active for years and years now, but what has particularly come to my attention has been his massive, constant, and comprehensive efforts to help new users. He's involved just about everywhere that helping new users can happen, and so far in 2013 he has been the editor who has done most in each and all of those different places. A lot of other people have been involved, many of them have put in huge numbers of hours and made a huge difference, but Huon is absolutely outstanding in this respect. I do have concerns that he may be spending far too much time online in order to deal with the many many requests for help on Wikipedia, and I feel that providing him with an elegant piece of apparel from this programme would assist by reminding him to go outside into the fresh air occasionally in order to show it off.

Why is this user awesome? I would be hard-pressed to find a more dedicated Wikipedian than Kudpung. The sheer amount of work he has put in to RfA reform easily numbers in the thousands of hours.
