If you're going to give a barnstar, might as well call the template Barnstar :) Although there is {{award2}} and {{award}}, neither one of them can be used with all the barnstars. This one can be used with most.

{{barnstar|image=image name|text=your reasons}}

• Example: {{barnstar|image=Original_Barnstar.png|text=I hereby award this barnstar for such great work on that article. User:Who 15:57, 19 October 2005 (UTC)}}[reply]

• Creates:
