At AfC I decided to passErythrocyte-based drug delivery despite some AI writing concerns. These have somewhat been addressed over time but it is still a work in progress. One userWeirdNAnnoyed in particular has done a great job of tackling this massive problem. They have done so not only on this article but it is a useful example. I was about to award an original barnstar, but I think we should make a dedicated barnstar. This is a novel problem in editing that many editors will need to learn about. I think a dedicated barnstar will help to make example editors that we as a community can learn from. At Village Pump there has been many attempts, with limited success, to build consensus on AI policy. A dedicated barnstar may help to bring attention to cases where editors are doing a good job thereby creating moments to learn from a grow a future consensus.Czarking0 (talk)20:07, 17 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello,
I came across this userUser:GOLDIEM J 's user page who has awarded himself theWikipedia:Service awards#Journeyman Editor (or Grognard) Journeyman Editor award. The award's requirements state that the user needs to have 2000 edits.
However, upon checking this User's user logs (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log/GOLDIEM_J&type=&user=GOLDIEM_J&offset=&limit=100) it seems that they have less than a 100 edits.
What is the due course of action in this case?
I'm new here and would like to be a participant in this WikiProject, hence I thought it is vital to bring this to attention here.Kingsacrificer (talk)14:58, 10 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing on a userpage is disruptive editing.is inaccurate advice, @OmegaAOL, it might be good for you to strike that so newer editors don't read it and think it's true.Schazjmd (talk)13:39, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing on a userpage is disruptive editingcould be interpreted as "I can do anything I want on my userpage and not get in trouble for it" which is untrue.Schazjmd (talk)15:52, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I found a barnstar related to experimental aircraft earlier today, and as far as I know, it's not included on any lists relating to barnstars. The link to the barnstar on Wikimedia Commons can be found at this link[1] along with a silver version[2]. If this could be added to a list of barnstars I'd very much appreciate it! :)🀰☯🀰Hexes54☯Talk to me🀰☯🀰12:01, 4 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
So do we have any policy on this? I'm referring specifically to thisone, which has been given after a uservandalisedarticles. It seems to me that rewarding vandals with barnstars is antithetical to the purpose of barnstars.Valenciano (talk)10:31, 16 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
 | The Inspiration Barnstar | |
| Presented to an editor whose contributions have meaningfully inspired the work of the awarding editor. |
This is a concept I hope to introduce.

I could use some assistance from someone significantly smarter than myself. I was awarded the Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar on my TP, and while it displays fine in desktop I noticed that the image is tiny in mobile mode. Didn't think much about it until I sawthis one, which displays how I'd expect. I popped into edit for both and the wiki sourcecode appears identical with the exception of text and image sources. Then, because I can't let anything go, I pulled up DevTools for both and drilled down into the page codes, and I thought I'd finally found the issue in a span class discrepancy - but when I went to check again it was gone and they both look identical now and I can hear colors and smell burning toast. Help a poor http-1 fluency newbie out??
(Yes, I should probably download the app and it's entirely possible it would make this whole thing go away, but right now I need to go find a fire extinguisher for my brain.)ChompyTheGogoat (talk)12:29, 30 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
