		Editor of the Week
		Your ongoing efforts to improve the encyclopedia have not gone unnoticed: You have been selected as Editor of the Week, for excellent work on baseball articles. Thank you for the great contributions! (courtesy of the Wikipedia Editor Retention Project)

Thanks again for your efforts! Go Phightins! 02:05, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

And on a personal note, as the presenter for this award, I also want to personally thank you for your contributions in the field of baseball - we rely on contributors like you who fly under the radar at times. Please accept this award as thanks for all you do, and keep up the marvelous work, Go Phightins! 02:05, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

I nominate MusiCitizen for the Editor of the Week award. This user began editing over nine years ago and a quick glance at his userpage reveals an almost mind-blowing amount of content creation, primarily related to the field of baseball. I have personally observed him maintaining the article 2013 in baseball, which he has edited almost 200 times! While MusiCitizen does display a handful of barnstars and the like at the bottom of his userpage, it appears that his vast contributions have gone severely under-recognized. I certainly hope we can help change that. AutomaticStrikeout (₵) 15:14, 15 August 2013 (UTC)

Take a bow! You are a "clean-up hitter". Wikipedia could not win without editors like you. ```Buster Seven Talk 05:33, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

		The BoSox Barnstar
		For all your hard work in helping create at least a stub for each and every red linked baseball biograpghy on the Boston Red Sox all-time roster, oh, and for expanding the article I created, Steve Rodriguez, helping making it to WP:DYK status, I award you The BoSox Barnstar! Great work! Keep it up! You certainly deserve this with no doubt. Best, RyRy (talk) 21:30, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Oh, and here's a ribbon too:
