The Indefinite Barnstar
Honoring those who have been indefinitely blocked on Wikipedia for productive, reasonable and well intentioned efforts conducted in accordance with Wikipedia policies and guidelines.
{{{1}}}

The fixed text above is included as a standard, to avoid the award becoming diluted by being awarded to those who were simply "not so bad" as opposed to genuinely productive editors wrongly punished.

Unnamed parameter 1 may point, for example, to evidence of the blocked user's innocence.

Created 2011-03-24 for the case of User:Charlie wilkes.

No, the recipient doesn't have to give back the barnstar even if he eventually gets unblocked.

Awarded 2012-02-27 for the case of User:Will Beback, who was indefinitely banned in a nearly precise mirror image of the verdict against Charlie wilkes.

Awarded 2012-08-06 (belatedly) for the case of User:Fae, who was indefinitely banned for being head of the WMUK while asking the WMF liason for help protecting his privacy on Commons. In another reversal, the "outer" in this case was not banned but only "severely" warned and admonished.
