I award you this prestigious RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar for your hard work in keeping Wikipedia a better place to visit, and looking out for a friend. Keep up the good work, Champion — G.A.S

Thanks for quality articles such as Nothing comes from nothing and Yisrael Hasson, improving South Rhodesian politics and Chinese nature parks, serving from 2004, for the approach "educational but not pedantic" and the mantra "please stop vandalizing", for quoting indignation and for strong images, - historian, repeated from 25 May 2007 ("Whatever is a cruel wrong, ...") --Gerda Arendt (talk)
Thanks for being my training wheels through the process of learning to edit D.Nino (talk)
For your work in frequently patrolling edit warring reports, I hereby award you this anti-edit-warrior combat helmet. It's come in handy many-a-time when dealing with warriors of all sorts, and it's no doubt prevented many-a-concussion...though it doesn't seem too good at preventing the headache in the first place. :P Keep up the great work. =) Cheers, --slakr\ talk /
I certainly can't compete with Slakr's Anti Edit Warrior Award above this but I have been running into you and your work frequently while patrolling the encyclopedia's various maintenance areas and wanted to take a moment to recognize everything you do to help keep the administrative side of this encyclopedia running. From RFPP to AE and everywhere in between, your work is greatly appreciated and it is my pleasure to award you The Admin's Barnstar. Best, Mifter (talk)
You're just rocking all over the place, aren't you--thanks for helping out! Drmies (talk)

I think you're doing a good job. This barnstar is meant to be a counterbalance to a likely unbalanced criticism-appreciation ratio. ~ ToBeFree (talk)
Thanks for the quick response to the LTA rampage on those three articles! :) IanDBeacon (talk)
I appreciate your actions as an administrator and this barnstar is the least i can do to thank you for all the though job you do to maintain the quality of this encyclopedia. To make it short : THANKS ! Take care. ---Wikaviani (talk)(contribs)
Thank you for doing an indef protection at Quarter Pounder. This will definitely slow down the vandals. JudeccaXIII (talk)

For your quick revdel! I placed an email to the Oversight team, but it looks like you beat everyone to it. Thank you! —MelbourneStar☆talk

Thanks for being willing to make hard blocks. You make Wikipedia better for the rest of us, and I do appreciate it. BilCat (talk)
Thank you for closing that god-forsaken discussion at ANI. So glad an admin finally stepped in and put their foot down! Thank you for all your hard work, and in particular this excellent closure. MrAureliusRTalk!
For being there when you're needed, for being a superb admin in general, and for making those tough calls (even when they ended up earning you flak). Your work can't be appreciated enough. Thank you for your hard work! LightandDark2000 🌀 (talk)
Hello, El C! You are receiving this barnstar because, according to this database query, you were the #5 most thanked Wikipedian of 2020, with 1667 entries in Special:Log/thanks! Thank you again for your contributions! Mz7 (talk)
I'm not certain that I need to explain exactly why you deserve this barnstar, suffice it to say that you spend a lot more time cleaning up WP:AN and WP:ANI than any admin should be honorably required to do. One hopes that perhaps watching the soothing, spinning star will help you relax some. :-) WaltCip-(talk)
I appreciate your work and I hope you make good use of the sanctions from the ArbCom case I opened. GPinkerton (talk)
For protecting thousands of pages, for endlessly leaving comments at AN and ANI, for being valuable to a whole admin area that very few can bear to edit it, for other things. Courtesy of WikiProject Giving Users Barnstars Because They Deserve Them. 🐔ChicdatBawk to me!
I have been editing Wikipedia since 2007 and this discussion closure may have been the most inspiring and beautiful thing I have ever seen. BOTTO (T•C)
For your interventions in the COVID-19 'lab leak' topic area, and the COVID-19 topic area more generally, last year and early this year. Doesn't go unnoticed! ProcrastinatingReader (talk)
After following as much as I could stand of this discussion at AN, I am amazed at the good humor with which you keep tolerating the sneers and smears. I am awarding you the "Grace Under Fire" award. Also remembering the not-so-old saying, "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall catch hell from both sides". MelanieN (talk)
Not the biggest fan of the ol' barnstar, but the El_C brand of crazy keeps AN/I from being a complete cluster. I guess keep it up? ~TNT (she/they • talk)
For taking on difficult tasks that need to be done I award you the Admin Barnstar. HighInBCNeed help? Just ask.

For tireless, impartial, decisive assistance in WP:AA2 disputes. --Armatura (talk)
For being “that sort of admin” there are a bunch of you though, but you popped in my head first. I have always been intrigued by men and women of power who aren’t stiff but jovial and act as though they aren’t powerful but command great authority and power it’s hard to explain but I hope you get what I’m trying to say. Furthermore for being an admin who is unafraid or unfazed in the face of tough decisions. Celestina007 (talk)
I don’t know why I find your sense of humor to be very unique, it’s none like I have seen before, others, including, wiki friends of mine find it annoying, But definitely not me, it sure as hell cracks me up. Celestina007 (talk)
For your sense of humor at ANI and other places. I enjoyed reading your input to other discussions you were involved with while I was there. You are able to get the point across while also conveying a sense of lightheartness, which I think is very important and can help destress and defuse the whole situation, which is important in a time of conflict. Keep up the good work! Rlink2 (talk)
It's always felt like you're one of the most active admin at page protection and Xtools just confirmed it for me. Thank you for everything that you do. Hey man im josh (talk)
For parking what I perceive to be your political prejudices at the door, as in User talk:Panda619#Indefinite block. The argument against a republic: President Thatcher. The argument against a monarchy: Crown Prince Mark Thatcher. La nature n'a fait ni serviteur ni maître; Je ne veux ni donner ni recevoir de lois. Et ses mains ourdiraient les entrailles du prêtre, Au défaut d'un cordon pour étrangler les rois. — Nature has made neither servant nor master; I don't want to give or receive laws. And its hands would weave the entrails of the priest, For lack of a cord to strangle kings. –– (Diderot) Narky Blert (talk)
