I've just discovered that I'm not receiving emails from Misplaced Pages because I use Yahoo and, well, this. I do want to talk to editors, but you'll just have to use my talk page I'm afraid.

Hi, I'm Stuart Marshall. I live in Cambridgeshire in England (but am originally from Hertfordshire). I have varied interests on Misplaced Pages; look for me in unlikely places!

I edited occasionally as an IP in 2004 and 2005, and I registered this account in 2006, but was only sporadically active until 2008 or so. In 2009 I nominated two people for adminship: User:Fences and windows and User:LinguistAtLarge. Although they both seem to have worked out rather well, I've never nominated anyone since.

It's 15:38 on 14 January 2025.

The Original Barnstar John Dudley, 1st Duke of Northumberland is finally a Good Article! It was rescued from failing thanks to your vital help! I am happy you enjoyed it. Buchraeumer (talk) 12:21, 26 June 2010 (UTC) Thanks for your involvement with 5 base yoga - You have tipped the issue from a problem to a solution! BO; talk 01:42, 2 May 2012 (UTC) A brownie for your strong work on Flying freehold Cheers! Vonfraginoff (talk) 07:17, 13 May 2012 (UTC) I know we have a long way to go, but with the RFC launched, this can't wait forever. For your immense efforts to improve wp:verifiability. Through your persistence and brilliant and direct writings, you have been one of the primary driving forces for improvement of this policy. North8000 (talk) 16:15, 29 June 2012 (UTC) The Brilliant Idea Barnstar The Rosetta Barnstar The Tireless Contributor Barnstar The Barnstar of Diplomacy "Carcasses are destroyed rather than eaten", loved the way you've phrased it. Yogesh Khandke (talk) 13:22, 4 April 2013 (UTC) For all of your translations from French and German! Ensignricky (talk) 18:55, 28 August 2013 (UTC) I've been meaning to leave this for you for a while. Your contributions at WP:DRV have always impressed me and yours is often a welcome dissenting opinion. I might not always agree with your take on things but I find myself regularly swayed, at least from my initial knee-jerk opinion, by your thoughtful commentary. Keep up the great work. Stalwart111 05:52, 14 February 2014 (UTC) Perhaps I should wait to award this until the conflict is resolved, but however it turns out, I feel this was very tactfully handled by you, in how you recognized the contributions and perspectives of the two entrenched editors while urging things forward toward a more stable solution, a recommendation which seems to have been taken to heart by the involved editors. Misplaced Pages needs more bridge-building of this nature and so I hereby award you this Barnstar of Diplomacy. Snow (talk) 03:06, 21 April 2014 (UTC) The Tireless Contributor Barnstar The Cure Award The Original Barnstar The Working Wikipedian's Barnstar For your diligent work closing various RFCs and discussions (including specifically the ones from WP:ANRFC) I hereby award you this Tireless Contributor Barnstar. Your closes are direct and to the point and include wisdom many of us wished we had. Keep up the good work.

I am being made out to be the world's greated sabature as a sock puppet because some WP person with some amount of authority has come to the conclusion and all this is based on me using my user name after a break of some time then returning to edit in WP and using the same user name because the prec=vious account is unable to be opened by the password. This WP experience is pathetic.Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 22:18, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
