The Barnstar of Good Humor!

| At the DYK conversation about the PBS station your ALT1 comment was a real joy to read. I'll admit I was a bit embarrassed about flubbing that review but your joke really lifted my spirits. Thanks for keeping this place light and fun.
| Dr vulpes (💬 • 📝) 08:49, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks, Dr vulpes. What happened is that I laughed really hard about RoySmith's ALT0. But then I thought "that's not really fair on a DYK newbie", hence I dished out my ALT1 in return. I hope RoySmith got a laugh out of it, too. Schwede66 09:23, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
- I meant no disrespect with ALT0, and thank you for improving upon my attempt at humor. RoySmith (talk) 13:39, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
- Although suspected rigging of the rowing events to validate your article writing should be of concern to future Olympics organisers. CMD (talk) 15:58, 10 August 2021 (UTC)
