   @Miniapolis: Shouldn't that be a new school GOCE award? I had 27,132 words, all of which were old articles for a total of 40,698 words, unless I really messed up the math. Alos, I don't believe I came in 5th for total articles, that was you. Xevus11 (talk) 20:49, 3 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
Apparently pings don't go through when you indent a post with spaces (which also messes up the formatting); see WP:THREAD. Alternative theories of the Hungarian language relations wasn't noted as an old or request article, and wasn't eligible for the 50% bonus. That brought you under 40,000 words, but you'll be able to roll over the leftover words in March. Jonesey95 (who's very good at these things) uses Torchiest's script to generate the barnstar table, which eliminates pilot error. You and I tied for fifth place, and I've had my fill of barnstars :-). All the best, Miniapolis 16:46, 6 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
The Barnstars page has the results of the script's calculations. Compare those results to what you recorded on the drive page, and let me know if there is a mistake somewhere. I will be happy to adjust your barnstar and give you proper credit if necessary. – Jonesey95 (talk) 18:04, 6 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Jonesey95: Ok, it was my mistake. I forgot to tag Alternative theories of the Hungarian language relations with a *O, though as can be seen here it was an oldest article. My mistake, ill just take the rollover words. No big deal, after all. Xevus11 (talk) 18:20, 6 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
OK, as long as you're happy with it. Thanks so much for all of the copy-editing! – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:57, 6 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
