Battlestar Wiki:Think Tank/Star of Kobol

This page (like all pages on this wiki) was imported from the original English-language Battlestar Wiki based on what was available in the Wayback Machine in early 2017. You can see the archive of the original page here.

This is an archive successful proposal that was vetted through the Think Tank, a place where ideas of all kinds are proposed and worked upon by the community prior to implementation. Please do not modify this proposal.

This is the overview. Basically, a summary of what the idea is about. You can get into the details later on.

Star of Kobol "Project"

I thought since we have no way to congratulate users who are not admins, but sort of a cool, your work is welcome, we create a "Barnstar" called the Star of Kobol. Basicly a image of the Star of Kobol (Self Created; Not Made yet) can be placed on the users main page. There are two templates... {{kobolstar|Number of times greater than 1...}} and {{kobolstar nomination}}.

Though, I have no idea what the criteria might be. Maybe this should be hashed out by the Admins and voted upon by everyone. I would suggest this "project" start after the start of Season 3.

The proposal should strive to answer some of the common questions, such as:

1. What is the benefit of this proposal to the wiki? Gives users "picks me up" for work they done
2. What is involved in implementing this idea? Two Templates, There Images (BW:SI and the icons), and Project Page
3. Who is going to do it? I am going to do the templates, but not the criteria.
4. Why should we do it at all? Gives users to strive for something..
5. How will we use the idea? Project based on BW:FA
6. Should the proposal pass, when will work start on this idea? Could start hashing away now, but should not be active till start of Season 3.
7. Where will this idea be implemented? (e.g. Will it be on certain types of pages or the entire Wiki in general?) user pages. There have to be something that allows people to add the {{kobolstar nomination}} to other people pages without consequences.
