Below are the people and their accomplishments who moved me to such an extent that I felt compelled to award them. Without further ado, I am honored to present to you the recipients...
Sharkface217 - The Socrates barnstar of philosophical merit, twice!, plus a working man's barnstar, for participating in the collaboration to add crucial missing definitions to the Glossary of philosophical isms, tripling his initial contribution, in the effort to complete this comprehensive article. Philosophy is hard work. This article has been waiting a loooong time. Thank you!

Striver - The Surreal Barnstar, for championing the article
Family tree of Umar against the many irrational (systemic) biases that were opposed to it, including resurrecting it from deletion, and then from the jaws of deletion itself.
