The World War Barnstar
I very much regret that the most visible flag of the country, which made for less than all the victories. At the same time a symbol of the country, has put tremendous efforts to achieve victory over fascism, modestly drawn in the corner of the image ... But how many have shed their blood and Russian, and other peoples of the USSR ... We need only recall the legendary battle of Stalingrad, when a group of people whom the world thought vanquished fought for incineration ruins. They fought a life and death. They did not care at that time the Nazis in Berlin celebrated the victory over the Russian, the defenders of Stalingrad absolutely did not care and that Hitler considered them only as a temporary problem. They are there in Stalingrad, destroying the troops Nazis, who outnumbered the number of Russian dozens of times! But the Russian fought for the Motherland. And the Russian won! The whole world could not believe it ... And then our troops have liberated their country first, and then liberated Eastern Europe. After that, the Russian army captured Berlin. At that time, our troops seized the capital of the country that had recently terrorized us, Hitler shot himself in the bunker. How much suffering was inflicted on our already-suffering people, how much suffering borne and other peoples of the USSR ... This is one of the most horrible things in the history of Russia. But soon Russia will celebrate the anniversary - 1200 years since the founding of our country ... Almost every family in our country have been killed in the war. I also have relatives who perished ... And what did for the U.S. victory? I write all this not to cause your pity. I am writing this and not to offend the American people. I write all this just to make you understand: it's not even an insult - it's a shame when other people forget these things. Very sorry, when the country has made so little for the victory over fascism, attributes her victory, for which my forefathers shed their blood so much ... I beg your pardon for incorrectly spelling suggestions - I do not know much English, and therefore forced to use inernet translator. But most importantly, I hope you understand ... --92.124.7.51 (talk) 14:59, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

Anybody have any thoughts as to how I could incorporate this photograph into a barnstar or award?Smallman12q (talk) 22:46, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Request for Nursing Barnstar
I was wondering if someone could create a Barnstar for Nursing using the file Nursing symbol.svg. The color scheme of our portal can be seen at {{Portal|Nursing}}. jsfouche ☽☾Talk 05:56, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
Transport Barnstar
Maybe their could be an award for creating and updating lots of pages to do with transport and letting the world know how to get around through wikipedia?

Portal barnstar revisited
- Below is de-archived from Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Wikipedia_Awards/Archive_17#Portal_barnstar.
I spend most of my time in userspace and mainspace, so I'm very confused about this. I created a "Portal Barnstar" which was removed by an editor here who used a cryptic edit summary. When I noticed the deletion, I tried to discuss it with the user, but found out that they are blocked indefinitely, so I reverted the deletion. I eventually tracked down Wikipedia:Barnstars_2.0 and discovered that there is an entry for "Portal Barnstar", but it uses my barnstar image credited as having been thought up and created by third parties. The page itself only dates from November, but the false credit under my barnstar says that the barnstar was created in June. I just honestly don't know what happened here, but it looks like a tangle of several errors.
TL;DR:
- The file File:Portal Barnstar Hires.png was created by me in August 2010. I put it on the page Wikipedia:Barnstars.
- The page Wikipedia:Barnstars_2.0 was created in November. It used the above image (the one I created) and claimed that a third party created the image in June 2010.
- User:« CA » deleted my barnstar from Wikipedia:Barnstars, claiming (I think) that it was redundant, but was indefinitely blocked before I could ask what happened.
—Bill Price (nyb) 17:44, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
- Hi Bill/Notyour broom. No idea what happened, but part of the problem may be #1 above: before posting a new barnstar a first draft on this page and seeking consensus on the need for a new barnstar and its design, has become the norm (as opposed to a Personal User Award which you can just create willy-nilly). Still, in recognition of your efforts I am sending you a Christmas card. ElijahBosley (talk ☞) 21:14, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
- I fixed the misattribution issue on the Wikipedia:Barnstars 2.0 page, and also (more than a week ago) restored the barnstar to the main Wikipedia:Barnstars page. I realize now that I didn't follow the proper procedure in proposing it on this page or getting it cleared by consensus to put up. I see, however, that it's being used as the graphic for "A WikiProject's award" on the main Wikipedia:WikiProject Wikipedia Awards page, which I hope is some indication that the image has been accepted as "good enough". —Bill Price (nyb) 08:38, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Fate of the Portal Barnstar
The Portal Barnstar | ||
The Portal Barnstar is awarded to Wikipedians who have made significant contributions to topic portals. |
Because I didn't follow the correct procedure originally, I want to put the Portal Barnstar up for discussion. I've included one above this message for reference. Is this an acceptable barnstar for Wikipedia:Barnstars? To be honest, I was very surprised that such a barnstar didn't already exist, given that portals are one of the major page categories and are relevant to virtually every article on Wikipedia. —Bill Price (nyb) 08:38, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
- Above is de-archived from Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Wikipedia_Awards/Archive_17#Portal_barnstar.
- Support Vey nice, but I feel the portal logo should be a little smaller (and as 2.0 of course). --Extra 999 (Contact me + contribs) 11:49, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
Featured barnstar revisited
- Below de-archived from Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Wikipedia_Awards/Archive_3#Feature_Article_Barnstar.
There should be a barnstar for users whose contribution lead to that article becoming a featured article. 142.35.144.2 00:16, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
- Everyone saying there is such an award has redlinks to that award, suggesting it has either been deleted or does not exist.
- Below de-archived from Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Wikipedia_Awards/Archive_17#Featured_article.
Is there any need for the brand new {{FA-Barnstar}} when there's already {{Featured Article Medal}}? VernoWhitney (talk) 15:41, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
- Yes and no.. The medal is for making 3 or more into FA.. The barnstar is just for general contributions to FA Skibden (talk) 16:00, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
- Below de-archived from Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Wikipedia_Awards/Archive_17#Featured_barnstar.
Don't you think that the Template:FA-Barnstar should be replaced to The Featured Content Barnstar. And why is the The WikiProject Slipknot Barnstar in the Topical Barnstars section, it should be in here. And Template:Robotics Barnstar should have an image related to barnstars and the gears both. --Extra 999 (Contact me + contribs) 12:30, 1 September 2010 (UTC)--Extra 999 (Contact me + contribs) 12:28, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Can anyone create a barnstar for WP:VPC. --Extra 999 (Contact me + contribs) 12:12, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
- Maye a barnstar with the flag and the original barnstar hanging down, like the BoNMs. --Extra 999 (Contact me + contribs) 17:37, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
- Maybe combined for FP and VP, GA and FA, FL and FT. --Extra 999 (Contact me + contribs) 05:27, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
- Not really, they exist and they need one. --Extra 999 (Contact me + contribs) 06:49, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
- I knew that, but they are not so common so we don't need them until and unless a request comes up. Anyone create those two please. --Extra 999 (Contact me + contribs) 07:27, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
VPC is closed, so there's no barnstar then. Kayau Voting IS evil 11:07, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
- GA and FA. --Extra 999 (Contact me + contribs) 11:14, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
- GA and FA - like DYK and ITN, both have their own methods and manner of notification and "awards". They get to display stars, there's userboxes, etc. Unless you're proposing a Barnstar for "reaching 100 FA's" or something huge, then it's a mere duplicaton of the recognition already provided.

- Oppose on grounds of not keeping with the original rough look of the barnstars. Support as 2.0 though. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 09:47, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose either way. It's confusing; what about replacing the middle/outer star with a barnstar, one for old and one for 2.0? Kayau Voting IS evil 13:52, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose Per above, it is the original image and no barnstar. --Extra 999 (Contact me + contribs) 11:47, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

- Weak oppose. I think this is redundant to "The Music Barnstar". It is also too specific. This page is for broader topic barnstars, where there would be many awardees. This looks like a topical/project specific barnstar, so Wikipedia:Awards by WikiProject, perhaps? — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 14:00, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
- Nah, we can also discuss awards by wikiprojects here Hellknowz. It's PUAs that are none of our business. Kayau Voting IS evil 14:43, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
- I did not mean "not discuss here", I meant "discuss this as a possibility for Awards by WikiProject instead of main list". I know this is the same venue for both. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 17:31, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
- Sorry Hellknowz. Can anyone inform me why the star is design like this? (I know nothing about music) Kayau Voting IS evil 02:04, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
- I'm guessing the star is purple because the music barnstar is purple. I've no idea on the note's relevance to the R&B'n'Soul in particular. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 09:52, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
- You guessed it right, the star is purple because the music barnstar is purple, so I followed its design as a reference pattern. Regards -Eduemoni↑talk↓ 03:41, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

Gender studies barnster deleted?
The graphic and description is still on the page but it comes up a redlink which says it was deleted. Anyone know why before I ask the admin to put it back up? I've also reported it at the project page. CarolMooreDC (talk) 13:38, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
