Barnstars are a time-honored way for wiki users to thank and acknowledge one another for their work. How do barnstars work? In the words of MeatballWiki, where the tradition started: "Occasionally, a person stands out above the rest and does something none of us would have thought of doing or were too lazy to do. They give a large gift to the community that shines against the background of our daily smaller gifts." So, when you see that somebody has done something worth celebrating: "To give an award, you just have to decide someone deserves one, and then give it to them. Don't hesitate, just give one in the typical wiki fashion."

Barnstars are given informally between users, whether for work that improves the whole wiki, for particularly noteworthy AH writing, or even for exemplary collaboration or discussion. They are meant to be "intermediate" awards: minor compared to or the , yet a little more prestigious than the . Right now, the first round of badges are history-themed and are general-purpose - they are given out for any job well done. Future barnstars may have different themes and may be created for specific kinds of thank-you's.
