 | My peer review of Talbot Tagora was one of the first small steps which helped User:Bravada, User:Outriggr and others to bring the page to featured status. I was awarded a userbox and barnstar for my contributions, although my active involvement in editing the article was minimal.[1][2] |
 | My expansion/rewrite of the list of bestselling vehicle nameplates led to it being cited as a source by The New Zealand Herald.[3][4] |

 | My expansion of Ten O'Clock Classics using the cited content from Ronen Segev, which had been speedily deleted and locked by User:Jimbo Wales,[6] protected the article from accusations of being unreferenced,[7] and deletion.[8] |
