Barnstars |
Barnstars are used to show gratitude to other Wikipedians when you notice them doing great work. They are a great way to show an editor your appreciation for their edits and build community. We have listed several barnstars below that are particularly relevant to the goals of WikiProject Writing. If you notice a participant making excellent contributions to WikiProject Writing, please select an appropriate barnstar and add it to their user talk page to show your gratitude.
As with other templates, you will need to copy and paste these in source editor for them to show up. You can find instructions and a complete list of options at Barnstars.
