User:RoyBoy/BarnstarClusters

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

These barnstar clusters were awarded to science contributors that had few or no awards despite their consistently above average editing and contributions. They reflected a strength/interest of the awardee. With multiple barnstars being awarded, it seemed appropriate to have at least 2 users per barnstar endorsing the cluster.

Each cluster had gone through a process of discussion and multiple drafts before barnstars, layout, images and style was finalized.

1 Cluster 1
2 Cluster 2
3 Cluster 3
4 Cluster 4
5 Cluster 5
6 Cluster 6
7 Cluster 7

On the Matter of the Award of a Barnstar to Serial Arsonist
Journal of Wikipedia
20:38, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

Abstract: Serial Arsonist has been shown to be richly deserving of barnstars.
Introduction: Since September 15, 2004, SA has made substantial contributions to the Journal of Wikipedia. However, these contributions have not, to date, been recognised by the award of a Barnstar. We propose to test the null hypothesis that SA is not deserving of a Barnstar.
Methods: SA's first 5,000 contributions were compared with those of other Wikipedia editors who had received the coveted award of a Barnstar. Each edit by SA and by a random sample of barnstar awardees was scored on a scale of 1-5, where 1 = "excellent" and 5 = "suckee". A two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to evaluate the null hypothesis.
Results: SA's contributions were found to be significantly better than that of the average Barnstar awardee (p < 0.0001).
Discussion: The null hypothesis was rejected; SA is richly deserving of a Barnstar. Based on this fact, we strongly recommend that he be awarded two.
