When you land in a place that is prickly at best,
And feathers get ruffled – you've disturbed someone's nest;
Be cautious when offering friendly advice,
Lest you suddenly find your two orbs in a vise.
Lessons are learned, but to do so takes practice,
To avoid getting pricked when you land on a cactus.

The Redirect Barnstar
Your work in the area of redirect categorization and improvement has been recognized and appreciated. :) Ϫ 06:43, 19 April 2011 (UTC)
Paine Ellsworth, you're a good editor and you deserve a cookie. Thank you for raising the issue of italics at Talk:Wikipedia—even though I ultimately disagreed with you, it was a valid question that led to a discussion that illuminated some things for me—and kudos for knowing when to walk away.

The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
T!hank you for helping me with the clear template on my page Thus Spake LeeTru. 13:46, 22 April 2013 (UTC)
Paine, just so you are aware, I took your name in vain at Talk:Gospel of Matthew#Sage advice. Imo, this is advice we would all be wise to follow in our continuing efforts to improve the content of this giant social experiment. Buona fortuna!
Careful about details but extends knowledge to community. JustBerry (talk) 05:21, 4 July 2013 (UTC)
7&6=thirteen (☎) has given you a Dobos Torte to enjoy! Seven layers of fun because you deserve it.

The Original Barnstar
Due to your help, the article was drastically improved. It solved the image problem and made it look good too. I very rarely give Barnstars, but you deserve it! You are are a real Wikipedia star...thank you! SethWhales talk 23:30, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the advice, My next question were should I insert the tornado history in Natrona County. Should it go under general history or geography Camthetornado (talk) 15:24, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
The Barnstar of Diligence
Just to briefly reiterate what I wrote over at Template talk:R from Twitter username, thank you for your diligence in mulling over an issue, finding a rather obscure but nifty template to resolve it, and then applying it. And I'm really sorry you removed all those DEFAULTSORT keys by hand; you should have something beforehand, I could have done it in <10 minutes with AWB. Cheers for going the extra three miles! —Compassionate727(T·C) 01:39, 17 July 2018 (UTC)
The Civility Barnstar
Even in the most heated of debates, I admire how you remained kind and calm and I think we all can learn from that. And thank you for your kind words the other day! - ❖ SilentResident ❖(talk ✉ | contribs ✎) 23:08, 15 November 2021 (UTC)
For your efforts at diplomacy on Packet boat. Gjs238 (talk) 18:12, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
The Original Barnstar
For stepping up at RfA. Sorry this is not going in the right direction. FWIW I am deeply disappointed and think this is a community "own goal." Your record of contributions here are off the hook. Ad Orientem (talk) 17:52, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
Yup – that's all. What? I can't help it if I'm just a wikignome! (I only do it for the money... naht ! ) PI Ellsworth - ed.put'r there 04:27, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
