Thelemapedia:Awards

(Revision as of 18:06, 6 Jul 2005)

Thelemapedia awards are given out to Thelemapedia editors in recognition of various efforts of excellence. With the one exception of The Order of Udjat, these awards can be presented by any editor to any other editor at their discretion. Although there are no policies regarding how one presents awards, here are some guidelines:

I, Fr. Fried Bacon, award you this Star of Thelemapedia for consistantly adding such great material about dozens of Egyptian gods.

They are generally posted on an editor's userpage or talk page, often at the bottom
The presenter should identify him/her self
Give some explanation of why they are getting the award
Awards are often given in the format of an image with a caption (see below)
An example is on the right

The code for this example is:

It should be noted that the following should not be the limit of Thelemapedia awards. Editors are invited to create new ones that honor fellow members in various ways.

Star of Thelemapedia

The Star of Thelemapedia is the general, all-purpose award of excellence. Every editor can award it to any other editor, pretty much for any reason they believe qualifies. It is expected to be awarded liberally.

Thoth Award for Excellence in Writing

Just as it sounds, the Thoth Award for Excellence in Writing (or "Thoth Award" for short), is given to editors who display an amazing talent for stringing words together in a way that makes a topic clear, easy to understand, and enjoyable to read.
