Barnstars
Barnstars are used on Wikipedia to reward users who make outstanding contributions in a particular area. To give someone an award, all you have to do, is copy the code from the table onto the talk page of the person you want to give the award to, and tell them why you have given it to them. There are many types of barnstar to choose from; if you are sure your choice is appropriate – don't be shy!



WikiProject awards
A WikiProject's award is awarded for substantial contributions towards a particular WikiProject.



Other related awards
Other related awards, In addition to barnstars, there are several other awards as well. While barnstars are generally reserved for a long-standing pattern of excellence, the following awards are more often given to honor specific actions or events.



Personal user awards
In the Personal user awards there is a wide range of awards to chose from, from the "Golden Wiki" award, for users who have made outstanding contributions, to the "Son of Jimbo" award, for users with the last name "Wales". So the next time you think a user has made a significant contribution, or basically anything else, why don't you give them a reward to show your gratitude?



Service awards
Service awards may be self-awarded dependent upon number of contributions and the length of service.

Barnstars
''Barnstars are listed in chronological order, that is, in the order in which they were introduced to the English Wikipedia. Please add any new Barnstars to the bottom of the appropriate section.''

General Barnstars
General Barnstars are awarded for work or contributions that do not fall into a specific Wikipedia category, but instead that describe contributions or editing along a specific theme.

Topical Barnstars
A topical barnstar is for a topic or area of substantial interest to users of Wikipedia.

Wikipedia-space Barnstars
These barnstars are given to editors for things done behind the scenes, in those corners of the Wikipedia project unseen by the general public, helping to keep things moving along.

Adoption
I have a fairly strict adoption program in which, in order to graduate, you will eventually have to create an article and get it promoted to at least B-class. This program will start with the very basics, more as a way for me to gauge your level of "wiki-literacy", than pose any real challenge. The tasks will be given at User:Drew R. Smith/Adoption/Porkchop28. You should probably watchlist this so you know when I have updated it with the next challenge.

As your adopter, I will be watching your contributions closely. If you get in a tight spot, I will help you if you are right. If you are wrong, I will merely deflect some of the criticism (a little criticism is always a good thing), and point out your errors. I will never be a shield, and you must never attempt to use me as a sheild.

If this is what you want, reply either here, or at my talkpage, and I will set up your first task at the above mentioned page. D rew S mith What I've done  20:21, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
 * And P.S., you may want to make a subpage for, or archive, these tests. They're cluttering up your page man! D rew S mith What I've done  20:21, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

This is what I want. How do you make an archive

Just Reminding You...
Nsomeone21 already has a welcome and all because your edit is more graphic doesn't mean you can welcome him twice! Programmer13 (talk) 14:50, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks!
Thanks for the Barnstar! I've been working on the my user page. I guess hard work pays off! Hey, I found out you were adopted by Drew R. Smith! Programmer13 (talk) 15:05, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

Adoption
I did the same mistake, He wants the article's talk, not the user's talk! Still confused? look at this. Just a hint, hope it helps! Programmer13 (talk) 17:34, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks!


Programmer13 (talk) has given you a fresh pie! Pies promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day a little better. Spread the WikiLove by giving someone else a piping hot pie, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Bon appetit!

Spread the tastiness of pies by adding {{subst:GivePie}} to their talk page with a friendly message. Hey, I saw that you edited pie, so what the heck, why not? Thanks again for the Barnstar! Programmer13 (talk) 17:50, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

Adoption
No, its has to be Noah's Ark's talk, not the article itself! Programmer13 (talk) 22:02, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

Friday
About what happened Friday, I don't like hurting anything in anyway. Programmer13 (talk) 21:21, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

Adoption
by the way, you need to provide links about point of view etc. relating to Wikipedia. I'm so tempted to tell you, so I'll give you a hint.

look at the article below.

Userboxes. If you can't figure it out tell me on my talk an I'll help you more. Programmer13 (talk) 21:32, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

RE:Porkchop28 adoption
I mean that instead of putting Point of View put Point of View, and disguise it like this. Point of View. It doesn't matter anymore, he passed you right? wrong. You have to learn! har har har. Programmer13 (talk) 18:37, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Hey,
No offense, but you should stop giving out barnstars. You make them look like they are nothing. Programmer13 (talk) 20:01, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Request to participate in University of Washington survey on tool to quickly understand Wikipedians’ reputations
Hello. I'm part of a research group at the University of Washington. In April, we met with some local Wikipedians to learn what they would like to know about other editors’ history and activities (within Wikipedia) when interacting with them on talk pages. The goal of those sessions was to gather feedback to help design an embedded application that could quickly communicate useful information about other Wikipedians. We have now created a few images that we feel represent some of what our participants thought was important. We would appreciate it if you took a few minutes of your time to complete an online survey that investigates whether or not these images would be useful to you. Your quick contribution would be very valuable to our research group and ultimately to Wikipedia. (When finished, the code for this application will be given over to the Wikipedia community to use and/or adjust as they see fit.)

Willing to spend a few minutes taking our survey? Click this link.

Please feel free to share the link with other Wikipedians. The more feedback, the better! The survey is completely anonymous and takes less than 10 minutes to complete. All data is used for university research purposes only.

Thank you for your time! If you have any questions about our research or research group, please visit our user page. Commprac01 (talk) 21:34, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Look
Look at this paragraph, familiar?

Cheetahs have unusually clean eating habits: they do not return to their kill nor do they eat carrion; they leave the skin, bones and entrails of their prey.

I found it at http://www.cheetahspot.com/food, were you copy and pasted a sentence of it. Programmer13TalkWhat I do 18:06, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Motto of the Day
Hi there, Porkchop28! Thought you might be interested in Motto of the Day, a collaborative (and totally voluntary) effort by a group of Wikipedians to create original, inspirational mottos. Have a good motto idea? Share it here, comment on some of the mottos there or just pass this message onto your friends.
