...there is...a tradition, across many disciplines, of the permitted amateur – doctors who were biologists and ornithologists, landed gentlemen who were scientists, zoologists and historians, clergymen who were encyclopaedic – and I hope I will be admitted to the ranks of those amateurs.

Hi! I'm Rudi Landmann, a long-time Wikipedian in Brisbane, Australia with Austrian heritage. I have some pretty diverse interests, but most of my activity here is in aerospace history. I am non-binary and use they/them pronouns. I am autistic and live with ADHD (inattentive type).
I have formal qualifications or have formally studied in many fields, including business, engineering, law, history, literature, physics, and music to name a few. I'm fascinated by language and linguistics, but do not consider myself fluent in any except my mother tongue, English. I can read most Romance languages at a basic level.

I award Rlandmann this barnstar for wonderful editing and patience during the VfD, save and redevelopment of the Sollog article Wyss 04:57, 12 Dec 2004 (UTC)
I award Rlandmann this barnstar for his dedication to aviation. There are not too many people who are dedicated to one field like you, Rlandmann. Also, for giving me a website that I downloaded and might help me transport photos to wikipedia (with permission from owner), whereas before I would have to rely on others to do this. Thanks Rlandmann! :"Antonio Barnstar is the Oscars of Wikipedia!!!! Martin"
For tirelessly cleaning up after my mistakes, and constant involvement in WikiProject aircraft, I award Rlandmann the Working Man's barnstar. →Iñgōlemo←
I award you the Aviation Barnstar in recognition of your knowledgeable contribution to aviation articles. -Bzuk

Space Pioneer Award Please enjoy this well-deserved award for excellence in the field of aerospace. A very long time ago, we worked together on French aircraft. I think our paths have crossed at Board Game Geek as well. Now I'm doing spaceflight articles at Wikipedia and loving it. We have lots of common interests, so I hope we keep in touch this time around! :) --Neopeius (talk) 16:16, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
The Tireless Contributor Barnstar Hello, Rlandmann! We've known each other 20 years now, and I've always appreciated you. I am glad you are back. :) Neopeius (talk) 06:20, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
The Barnstar of Diplomacy For Rlandmann's kindness and patience in guiding new editors. It is noticed and appreciated. Thanks! — CactusWriter (talk) 16:31, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
You definetely deserve this, especially when helping me out. As much as it may seem as if I don't appreciate your work, I definetely do. You have extraordinary patience when explaining things, and even go out of your way to explain which citations aren't reliable. So, thank you so much for that, Rlandmann. Have a great rest of your summer! :) Sir MemeGod ._. (talk - contribs - created articles) 22:44, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
This collection of six barnstars is awarded this day to Rlandmann in recognition of their efforts to cleanup copyright issues and understanding regarding the licensure of images hosted by a large collection of National Weather Service offices based in the Commons but with far-reaching effects to weather-related articles on Wikipedia proper.
Their efforts began a systematic review of every image in PD NWS copyright categories, a Commons RFC, the overhauling of PD NWS copyright templates, tireless correspondence with NWS offices and analysis thereof, deletion requests numbering in the hundreds, and overall outstanding and highly meritorious conduct in service to various projects.
Simply superb and representative of model behavior for any and all editors and contributors to the various wiki projects we encompass. ~Gwennie🐈｟💬📋｠ 22:45, 20 October 2024 (UTC)
