Barnstars
- From Lara:
Wikia, you've helped me out from the very beginning, and you are one of the kindest contributors I know. You always notice and congratulate me when I've achieved something, and you are warm and welcoming to everyone. I'm very grateful for all your guidance. You deserve this barnstar and more!
- From FlowerPower:
You gave me a barnstar, so I'm giving you one :P.
On a more serious note, I'm very happy and surprised to see how you've grown as a contributor. You're humorous, kind, and sensible. Your welcome messages make me smile, and it's always great to see you around!
I really hope you stick around. Congrats on your second well-deserved barnstar!

WikiaWang, guiding so many people in order to maintain the purity and righteousness of the wikiHow community. Scrolling through your talk page, I realized that you aren’t just a normal contributor. There are so many thanks and ghosts of answers and help embedded in your 6 current archives. I realized that’s you are one that people can turn to when help is needed, one that will guide people when put through hard times. You are one that many recognize as a hero, one that people will always receive kind and willingly support from. You always encourage and push the boundaries of wikiHow in order to achieve more excellence than we have ever seen. People will always receive polite and kind support from you. Therefore, you have made permanent marks in the hearts of all the wikiHowians you have ever talked to, and so all of the community thanks you. I know that this might’ve come as a surprise, but I present you with your very own Ambassador Barnstar.
