Awards[edit]

		The WikiProject Greater Manchester Award of Merit
		Considering you co-founded the Greater Manchester project, and all the work you've done as part of it, I think it's astonishing you don't have one of these already. Well here it is, better late than never, recognising in particular your work trawling through the Manchester council webpages to help complete the Grade II* listed buildings in Greater Manchester article and your efforts in getting Murrays' Mills to GA. And all the images you've uploaded. And probably a load of stuff I've missed. Nev1 (talk) 14:30, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

		The RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar
		I award you this barnstar for your tireless efforts last night fighting the many IP addresses POV pushing about Manchester on Wikipedia. Great work though they don't seem to want to give up! _└^and-rew_┘^┌_talk^┐ 11:05, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

		The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
		Thanks User:Pit-yacker for helping me with the new info box Best wishes SuzanneKn 19:17, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
