		The Original Barnstar
		Well, here's another one to add to the barn. Tyrenius, you have done such an awesome job in admin tasks and the encylopedic aspect of the project. Without any question, you are one of the more valued contributors to the project. You are one of the best, and I hope you keep it up. Yank sox 18:48, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

		Defender of the Wiki
		For your recent very thoughtful comments on WP:AN/I regarding publicgirluk ++Lar: t/c 03:39, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Well, hell, I came hither to bestow a similar barnstar but have once more been outdone by my fellow libertarian. No matter; you'll surely have appreciated from the AN/I discussion that many of us think your contributions apropos of publicgirluk to have been altogether perspicacious and, for that matter, ahead of their Wikitime. Joe 05:10, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

		The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar
		For your good work on clarifying WP:BLP and how it relates to user pages. Well done, and keep up your good work Guinnog 17:59, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Some of the coding on Wiki is difficult, or other things like categories might not be easy to discover. Find another article similar to the one you're working on, click the edit button, then copy the relevant code, categories, stub notice or whatever, and paste it into your own article, changing the text where relevant. You can do this for inserting pictures into an article as well.
