It's meant to symbolise a user giving a dying article the "kiss of life". It was first made for ] on 7 January 2008 after he saved an ] I ] for deletion with some skilful reference finding. It has since been awarded to over 100 users! (as of December 9, 2008) | |||

'''I got ] up to ] class''' and over | |||
For those interested, I originally came across her article after a request for help from one of her former crew, ]. He has some ] of her service during the ] that you should check out. It took me just over three months to achieve FA, involving lots of research, but it all paid off when I was able to impress Griffiths with some facts even he didn't know! what she looked like before I got started, if you fancy a laugh ;) | |||
After taking ] up to FA (against my previous advice), I can reaffirm that you shouldn't push past the ] mark. The FA process's strict guidelines boil down to nitpicking that hurts an article's content. The point of this encyclopaedia and our improving of articles is to educate, not win glossy awards. Having an article on the main page is pretty unpleasant too. A lot of anons edit the article's lead, in the hope that their bad grammar will show up on the main. | |||

I hate the large amount of unsourced trivial crap there is on Misplaced Pages, I do not believe that it "]". <br>If something is rubbish then it's mere existence drags the encyclopaedia down. This project will not be taken seriously unless we stop articles like "Knuckles the Echidna" being longer than ones about; The Internet, William Shakespeare and Echidnas! | |||
