I have uncovered the source of this unnecessary sectioning. It seems that a particularly stupid editor brought two barnstars to this page for discussion under the impression that both of them were the products of the same editor. Looking at the dif one can see that he created one comments section for the Linguistic BStar and another comments section for the Biography BStar (two subsections of one section dealing with two barnstars). Then this moron, having realized his mistake about the creatorship of said Barnstars, compounded his error by splitting the section into two separate sections, each with a now pointless subsection for comments. All I can say is that this is the type of sloppy workmanship that cannot be tolerated. I propose that said editor be brought up to the powers that be for a long block (say, six months), if not an outright ban. This sort of thing really pisses me off.

UNSCHOOL! You have epic failed in your efforts! Prepare to face the consequences!
Whacking with a wet trout or trouting is a common practice on Wikipedia when experienced editors slip up and make a silly mistake. It, along with
sentencing to the village stocks, is used to resolve one-off instances of seemingly silly behavior amongst normally constructive community members, as opposed to long term patterns of
disruptive edits, which earn
warnings and
blocks.

Barnstar of Change | |
Reason |
This is my proposal for a barnstar awarded to people who make continuous or significant changes in Wikipedia or in the Wikipedia community. Hence the different barnstar image (IE a 'changed' barnstar), now I think there might already be a barnstar that covers that, but I thought I throw it out and hear what ya' think.
Tripodero 13:58, 4 July 2009 (UTC)
Of course, it is mostly based on personal opinion. Say if one wants to recognize another for general contributions that they believe made a difference, if at least to them, then it would be a nice and simple way of recognizing them for it. I don't think a Wikipedia Barnstar necessarily has to be something that's difficult to obtain, but instead something that is given in recognition of good editing no matter how big or how small just along as it is appreciated.

But please don't attempt to make any of them yet - until it's sure that I'm not reinventing Wikipedia. (But then of course, I'm not as clever as Jimmy Wales - far from it! On second thoughts, make it reinventing the school, haha! No Unschool, try not to consider this an insult - it's only a joke!) Kayau Jane Eyre PRIDE AND PREJUDICE les miserables 00:12, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
I think the Barnstar of Peace would adequately cover the Anti-Edit Warring arena, and there are many ways of expressing gratitude, including specific barnstars depending on what the person did that you were thankful for, so I don't think we need a generic "gratitude" barnstar. I don't think we have an RCP Barnstar; theoretically, such a person could be awarded the antivandalism star, but a specific barnstar for recent change patrolling wouldn't be bad. I fully support the idea for a userbox barnstar, provided that it is awarded for creating the things, not just using them prolifically. Nutiketaiel ( talk) 11:38, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
Two more suggestions:
I think the first is likely to be rejected. Kayau | Jane Eyre| PRIDE AND PREJUDICE| les miserables 04:42, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
A few more:
Of course, I'm sure there would be a history, maths, and wikify barnstar, but I've never seen any, so it's just to make sure we have 'em. Kayau | Jane Eyre| PRIDE AND PREJUDICE| les miserables 10:11, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
I've crossed out a few I don't like. This is the new list for consideration:
Please keep shooting so that I will be able to shortlist the best ones to make.

*The Anti-Edit Warring Barnstar
But please don't attempt to make any of them yet - until it's sure that I'm not reinventing Wikipedia. (But then of course, I'm not as clever as Jimmy Wales - far from it! On second thoughts, make it reinventing the school, haha! No Unschool, try not to consider this an insult - it's only a joke!)

I think the Barnstar of Peace would adequately cover the Anti-Edit Warring arena, and there are many ways of expressing gratitude, including specific barnstars depending on what the person did that you were thankful for, so I don't think we need a generic "gratitude" barnstar. I don't think we have an RCP Barnstar; theoretically, such a person could be awarded the antivandalism star, but a specific barnstar for recent change patrolling wouldn't be bad. I fully support the idea for a userbox barnstar, provided that it is awarded for creating the things, not just using them prolifically. Nutiketaiel ( talk) 11:38, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
Two more suggestions:
I think the first is likely to be rejected. Kayau | Jane Eyre| PRIDE AND PREJUDICE| les miserables 04:42, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
A few more:
Of course, I'm sure there would be a history, maths, and wikify barnstar, but I've never seen any, so it's just to make sure we have 'em. Kayau | Jane Eyre| PRIDE AND PREJUDICE| les miserables 10:11, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
I've crossed out a few I don't like. This is the new list for consideration:
Please keep shooting so that I will be able to shortlist the best ones to make.

All declined per Unschool, although I still feel strange for not having a Maths barnstar. Kayau David Copperfield MOBY DICK the great gatsby 06:08, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
