This template is used to give out the Working Man's Barnstar on the English-language Wikipedia. Due to recent protests by a number of Wikipedians that the award should be gender neutral, an extra option is now available to allow users to specify a gender for the recipient of the award.

{{subst:The Working Wikipedian's Barnstar|message ~~~~|gender}}

For the gender option, there are four optional paramaters:

m = Man's
w or f (female) = Woman's
n = Hard Worker's
wiki = Wikipedian's

If none of these parameters are supplied, or no parameter is present, The Working Wikipedian's is the default.

An alternate version of this barnstar image is available by adding the |alt parameter:
