HongQiGong, I award you this here RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar in recognition and appreciation of your tireless efforts to defend Japanese history articles from those who would deny Korean influence and involvement, and for your extensive work on East Asian topics in other respects. It is truly a never-ending task and a more or less thankless job. Thank you. LordAmeth 19:50, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
I award you this Barnsensu in recognition of your tireless efforts to bring balance to Japan and other Japan-related articles-- a very meaningful, but thankless and never-ending task. Although we may not always agree, I admire your tremendous persistence and appreciate your presence at Wikipedia. No matter what some may say, you are a positive force here. Don't forget that. And don't give up. Don't compromise. Just because you are outnumbered, doesn't mean you are defeated. Truth is on your side.--Sir Edgar 00:50, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
For your dedication and enthusiasm to the WikiProject Hong Kong effort in the hopes of improving the quality and scope of all Hong Kong-related articles. Your contributions have been valued and appreciated. I look forward to our future collaborations. Luke! 21:56, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
HongQiGong...thanks for your contributions to Manzanar, especially when we were "embroiled" in that debate over terminology. You helped put us back on track and look what happened...it's now an FA. Thanks again! -- Gmatsuda 22:14, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
