+'''Service Ribbons''' are '''in character (IC)''' decorations presented to officers for acts of heroism and participation in a vessel's missions or campaign. Ribbons can be received at any time, but are generally presented alongside crew promotions. It is not uncommon for all members of a crew to receive campaign ribbons.
+Service ribbons should only be displayed on the ''specific'' character that received the service ribbon. Unlike [[awards]] and [[badges]], which are for out-of-character accomplishments and thus shared among all characters of a simmer/writer, service ribbons are tied to the in-character accomplishments of that particular character.
 There are five categories of service ribbons:

+{{Starfleet Handbook}}
-==IC vs. OOC==
-The difference between awards, badges, and service ribbons:
-* '''[[awards]]''' and '''[[badges]]''': Presented for OOC accomplishments by an individual ''simmer/writer''. Awards and badges can be displayed on any and all characters' pages of that simmer/writer.
-* '''service ribbons''': Presented for IC performed by a specific ''character''. Service ribbons can only be displayed on that specific character's page.
-==Specific Character Policy==
-Because service ribbons are '''In Character''' decorations (unlike [[List of Awards|awards]]), <font color="red">'''they are NOT to be shared across characters'''</font color> and can only be displayed on the wiki profile of the '''specific character''' to whom they were presented.
 ==Multiple Citations Policy==
-Any general ribbon, milestone ribbon, ribbon of gallantry & heroism, or lifesaving ribbon may be awarded multiple times, but any campaign ribbon may only be awarded once. A '''gold star''' represents each repeated citation, and a '''silver star''' represents five additional citations (and therefore five gold stars).
+Any service ribbon may be awarded multiple times. A '''gold star''' represents each repeated citation, and a '''silver star''' represents five additional citations (and therefore five gold stars). For certain campaign ribbons awarded for participation in multi-phase campaigns, '''bronze stars''' represent the completion of a specific number of campaign phases.
