/find socks by revert rate: Create a tool that reads all edits for a page and organizes editors based on what percent of their edits were reverted. This will be helpful catching chronic sock puppets on certain articles. If done right disruptive sock puppet accounts will stand out clearly from productive editors. Naturally final judgment is left to a human.
These are tokens of graditude that other users have given me.

I, TeckWiz, award HighInBC a barnstar for creating the HBC AIV helperbot. It's usefullness includes, but isn't limited too (I don't know if that's the correct form): clearing AIV while always telling how many users are left, clearing vandals that admins would sometimes forget to take away after blocking (wasting time for other admins who go to block the already blocked user), and removing users that were blocked before they were reported (instantly taking them away. --TeckWizTalkContribs@ 22:13, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

For your recent comment at ANI here. I know that there are sometimes questions about admins behaving badly, sometimes like in my former-admin case justified, and it can sometimes be easier to try to make an excuse for someone who is an admin.

The Anti-Flame Barnstar
Awarded for your conduct here. In truth, it took me a long minute to decide between this and the "civility" and "socratic" barnstar variants. But in any event, I wanted you to know that I observed your approach to the discussion to be very principled; despite numerous borderline-antagonistic comments that might have inspired other contributors to respond in a similar tone, you kept your own observations rational, measured, cogent, and rooted in the needs of our community and our processes. That is to say, I don't award this barnstar so much for your position (though I think it was sound) as for the manner in which you presented it. You are a credit to the mop!
