It's meant to symbolise a user giving a dying article the "kiss of life". It was first made for ] on 7 January 2008 after he saved an ] I ] for deletion with some skilful reference finding. It has since been awarded to over 100 users! (as of December 9, 2008) |

However I don't think I'll try and push another article up to FA again though, as once you get past the ] mark the article's educational content starts to suffer (due to the FA process's strict guidelines) and after all the whole point of us improving articles is to teach, not gain glossy awards. Plus it's pretty horrible on the front page, lots of lazy people try to edit the article's lead, in the hope that their crappy grammar might show up on the main. |

For those interested, I originally came across her article after a request for help from one of her former crew, ]. He has some ] of her service during the ] that you really should check out. It took me just over three months to achieve FA, involving lots of research, it all paid off though as I was able to impress Griffiths with some facts even he didn't know! what she looked like before I got started, if you fancy a laugh ;) |

After taking ] up to FA (against my previous advice), I can confirm that you shouldn't push past the ] mark. The FA process's strict guidelines boil down to nitpicking that hurts an article's content. Improve your articles to educate, not win glossy awards. Having an article on the main page is pretty unpleasant too. A lot of anons edit the article's lead, in the hope that their bad grammar will show up on the main. |
