By the authority vested in me by myself it gives me great pleasure to present you with this barnstar in recognition of your sterling work on War of Radagaisus, Gothic Revolt of Tribigild and Bagaudae Revolt. It is much appreciated. Gog the Mild (talk) 22:26, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much. Geoffrey F (talk) 17:34, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Separately, I recently took Constantine III (Western Roman emperor) to featured article and Constans II to good article, so if you would like help taking Radagaisus or Bagaudae further, let me know. Gog the Mild (talk) 22:26, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi thanks for creating this article. When we translate or borrow from other language wikis it’s a requirement to acknowledge the source. The best way to do this is to include it in your edit summary (e.g. “translated from nl.wiki”) and there’s also a translation template you can add to the talk page. I’ve added it for you. Happy editing and please leave a message on my talk page if you need any help Mccapra (talk) 01:31, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Geoffrey,

I just wanted to let you know that the article War of Radagaisus has a reference to a author called Drinkwater, however, the sources section is missing the source for this reference. SailingthroughHistory (talk) 14:16, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

* Drinkwater, John F. (1998). "The usurpers Constantine III (407–411) and Jovinus (411–413)". Britannia. 29.

Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
