It is the custom to reward Wiki contributors for hard work and due diligence by presenting them '''[[barnstar|barnstars]]'''. To give the award to someone, just edit his or her user talk page to include the image, and say why you've given it.

The concept of the barnstar as a Wiki award was created by SunirShah on [http://www.usemod.com/cgi-bin/mb.pl?BarnStar MeatballWiki]. It has since been imported into the [[Wikipedia:Barnstars on Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] and now here to the Homestar Runner Wiki.

The following are the barnstars and awards currently in use, in order of creation.

== Community barnstars ==

Any user can give out one of the following awards to another user:
